Does Daily Contact Lens Use After Blepharoplasty Ruin Skin Around Eyes?

Asked By:montana_03 in Honolulu, HI

After eyelid surgery, I know it is recommended that you should not wear contact lens for several weeks. Once you are healed from blepharoplasty and start to wear contact lens, does the daily inserting of contact lens ruin the skin around your eye? Thanks.
