Droopy Right Eye Five Months AFTER Upper Eye Blepharoplasty Surgery...what Can Be Done? (photo)

October 1, 2013
Asked By:PLM

I had blepharoplasty surgery five months ago and my eyes, especially the right look worse than before. The right eye especially seems difficult to open as widely as I once could and it is now smaller than the left eye which is wasn't before. Has a muscle been cut or is it swelling or nerve damage? Can anything be done? I am including pictures
