Seeing the photos below at 7 weeks, I am hoping to get this repaired sooner than later. I have the greatest respect for my surgeon but unfortunately I was the one that for some reason healed poorly. I just wanted to do one thing for myself. The webbing is uncomfortable and effects my vision. Hoping for Zplasty sooner than later.
