Sharp muscular-like pain in corner of 1 eye ever since eyelid surgery - it's been 7 years

March 1, 2023
Asked By:Ompangi in England, United Kingdom

I had an eyelid surgery to correct a mild ptosis. The documents say that my procedure in short was called 'levator aponeurosis plication, fat repositioning with 5 point fixation with a nylon stitch' Ever since I have suffered bad pain in the corner of my right eye. Its like a sharp muscle contraction, it isnt present when my eye is closed. 2 doctors have looked and cant feel the stitch. The pain isnt in the eye as it doesnt respond to anasthetic. My eyes are not dry. Can anyone help?
