Eyelid Surgery for Ptosis, Unhappy with Results, Are these the Final Results? (photo)

RFDZ
I had ptosis surgery on my left upper eyelid 10 days ago. I have two concerns. I am having double-vision and blurriness in the eye. This does not seem to have improved over the past week. When I use both eyes, I see normal. With the left, I see double (ghost images). Is this going to be permanent? What causes this? I am not happy with results of the surgery. I dont see improvement, and possibly it looks worse now. Can any doctors please comment based on the pictures attached.
