Sore Eyes 3 Weeks After Upper and Lower Bleph, Normal?

angiestar
My eyes are sore 3 weeks after surgery. The scars are fading well and the whites of my eyes appear to have returned to normal but my eyes feel tight and irritated and it feels uncomfortable to open my eyes wide. Also I can still see some protrusion under my eyes; is this just swelling? Also my top eye lashes have started dropping out. Is all this normal 3 weeks post op?
