I received upper bleph 2 days ago. Not sure why this one eye is super red and the other don't look to bad. I realize it's very soon but just curious is to why one eye ? I've been icing for 2 days and I hear people say ice does nothing after 48 hours ?
Answer: Is this normal? Very frequently one eye shows more bruising and edema than the other eye. Icing after the first 48hours usually is not very effective, but sleeping in a slightly upright position for the next several days may yield some relief in swelling. Additionally, arnica montana is an over the counter natural remedy that will lessen the duration of swelling. Good luck and best wishes.

Answer: Of course this is not normal. You are horribly bruised. The redness is associated with this trauma. Each day things should get better and the swelling will gradually improve. Of course increasing redness, swelling, and pain are signs that you should pay attention to and seek the advice of your surgeon for.

Answer: Swelling after eyelid surgery Based on your photo, it looks like you had more post-operative bleeding / bruising on the right side. This is pretty common, and should not cause you to panic. After a few days, warm moist compresses may help the bruising resolve more quickly. Good luck!
