I always had ptosis in my left eyelid. It wasnt always noticeable. Unless when i got tired it was very visible. The days after my surgery my eyelid was always droopy. At first i tought it was due to the stitches and swolllen eye. Now 14 days later (4 days after removing stitches my eye is still droopy. Im getting worried now. When at first it was only droopy when i was tired now i always have it. When i ask People They say my eye isnt swolllen anymore. So the eyelid should be good now
