Post-ptosis Repair and Blepharoplasty - Feels Like There is Something in my Eye

lynni
My right eye is the one I had the ptosis repair and now I feel like there is something stuck in my eye and it is not healing as well as the other eye(which had just the upper bleph.) it feels like an eyelash or piece of sand is stuck, but there is nothing in my eye. They told me I have calcium deposits under my upper lids, which I have always had, but now I am feeling them? Has anyone else felt this. They suggested wearing a contact lens to shield my eye...only I am not a cont lens wearer! Help.
