Asked By:Magstress4 in Naples, FL

I had a full face lift six months ago including eyes and brow lift. I am blinking excessively and as it gets worse I tend to make facial movements. My right eye is worse. I use Refresh at night and drops during the day. My eyes are getting close to closing completely. I'm seeing my surgeon next week to talk about this. Has anyone dealt with this issue?
