Why is my lacrimal gland lumpy puffy one eye? (photo)

Chemosis occurs not infrequently after lower lid blepharoplasty. It can be exacerbated if your eye is not well-lubricated. Contact your surgeon's office, as he/she may want to start treatment with steroid eye drops and/or oral steroids, or other treatments (taping, temporary tarsorrhaphy, etc).

It is interesting in the "normal" photo that you appear to have a ptosis. This may be because your head is tilted back a bit in the photo. If you had a true ptosis, your lid height should look even lower when you pull your brow down.When you pull your brow down, you will see less skin in the...

Lateral drooping after upper blepharoplasty is best treated with a browlift instead of upper blepharoplasty in my 35 year experience. Have your surgeon do a lateral browlift under local anesthesia.
