2 years after upper and lower blepharoplasty I have chemosis and drooping eye, what can I do?

ropner
I had upper&lower bleph done 2 n half years ago. After the op I had chemosis in right eye, given drops. Eyes looked great for 1.5 years tiny minor chemosis when over tired or after party. Was put on steroid drops, did nothing to help. At Christmas (1.5 after initial op) my eye got very cross! Inflamed with fluid under conjunctiva. More steroid drops given. No better. It's been 8 months of pain and soreness. Now my eye droops. I'm doing higene, and lubricants daily. No alcohol, or going out
