Asked By:acarmelmitch in Memphis, TN

When I came out of surgery I was surprised at what I saw. The doctor had cut me from one side of my eye to the other. I went in on yesterday, I advised him I was not expecting to be cut this way. He basically dismissed my concerns. Told me it will have to heal.. I know of there are imperfections they will heal that way..I have an appointment in 2 weeks.
