Stressing my eyes after double eyelid surgery?

Question

Will stressing my eyes after double eyelid surgery cause it to sag, affecting the end result? (decrease my eyelid space)

Michael Hromadka, MD · Answer

Hi ~ It is important to follow your surgeons recommendations during the post operative period. In general, we tell patients it is ok to watch TV, read after eyelid surgery.

You will not harm your surgery or final results by reading, watching tv, or keeping your eyes open after double eyelid surgery.  Good luck!
