It's been 9 days since my endoscopic brow & midface lift.Still in pain and quite swollen,particularly in the cheeks. However, my biggest concern is the change in my vision. During myh 6-hour procedure, my eyes remained open while I was under general anesthesia (rare), but doc says my eyes were kept lubricated throughout.
