I had a face lift in April 2011, which included eye lid lift. 6 months later, I lost the vision in my left eye. I saw a retina specialist and he told me that there was blood that had collected behind my eye and optic nerve damage. I would like to know if this could have possibly been caused by inflammation from the surgery. The scar in the front of my ear seems to never have healed. I would like to know if I may need medication to help this scar heal and could this possibly help my eye?
