Round eyes after upper eyelid surgery. Any suggestions? (photos)

Asked By:Catherine555 in New York, NY

I am one week after upper eyelid surgery and my eyes appear to be very round. I had my stitches taken out two days ago by the nurse and she just said that everything looked fine and that it would take some time before I could see the final results. I am going back for a final check up in six months. I still have swelling and I also have a patch on the right eyelid. I know it is early but I am really worried that my eyes will look this round forever. I have a very "surgical" look. Can it still change?
