After orbital floor surgery my eye looks noticeably smaller than the other. Will this settle? (photos)

I had orbital floor surgery on my right eye 2 weeks ago. I haven't had a lot of bruising just swelling around the eye mostly underneath and the right side of my face still has numbness. I have been taking pictures to keep track of recovery and I am anxious that my eye will not recover and will be much smaller than the other. I'm due for my 3 week check up next week. Please pass on any advice. Thanks.
