My Eyes Can't Open Fully After Double Eyelid Surgery? (photo)

April 13, 2013
Asked By:dollienl

11 days post-op. My eyes can't open fully or look upwards. It feels like something is stopping my eyes from looking upwards and sideways. Is it normal? How much will the crease reduce in its size? The area above my lash line feels numb and my eyelid feels very hard and tight. My eyes looks lifeless now as compared to before surgery. Is there anyway to heal it? My eyelid still feels thick and puffy now. Should a revision be done?
