Why can't I open one eye after upper and lower eye surgery? I just had surgery two days ago on my upper and lower eyes.

Asked By:alicia25785 in Naples, FL

One eye seems to be normal but my left eye can't open. I had stitches one my upper lids so I couldn't open my eyes fully but the stitch on my left began to hurt my Eye so The doctor removed it today. But my eye still dose not want to open now tears just come out of my eye. Seems to be getting worse Should I be concerned ? All it dose is cry because of the pain I feel inside. Fat from my stomach was removed from my belly and added to my bottom eye lips Could that be causing the Issue?
