I had eyelid surgery to correct ptosis on my left eyelid 3 weeks ago. I know there will be swelling in the left eyelid, but I'm starting to notice the other eyelid (my right eye) feels like it's drooping now. I've read you can have ptosis in both eyes and not know it until after surgery. Based on the photos provided do you think this is the case, or do I simply need more time for the operated eyelid to "fall"?
