I am 31 years old, just suffered from shingles a month ago but I still have a droopy eyelid. Will it ever heal?

It doesn’t seem to be healing and all eye doctors I have seen can’t tell me one way or the other. Have you seen long-term effects to eyelids due to shingles? Should I consider cosmetic surgery? Thank you.
