Had asian eye surgery on July 2016, both seemed to be healing at the same time, but realized that my right needed ptosis repair as well and the edema on the right lid has been swollen every since. Ptosis repair was done late March 2017. The swelling did not go away and has not gone away. I'm not sure what to do at this point, and if both my lids will level out the same. Will it stay like this, or will it decrease in size over time? If not, what are some remedies you'd advise for me to do?
