Upper & Lower Eyelid Surgery 15 Days Ago, Discharge From Eyes?

April 9, 2013
Asked By:luckydenvrmint in Canada, KY

I had upper & lower blepharoplasty 15 days ago. I am younger than the majority who get this surgery, I healed really quickly, there is no evidence of bruising and almost no swelling with the exception of the upper lid itself.. That being said, when I wake up from my sleep I sometimes find I have quite a bit of white -somewhat sticky- discharge from my eyes. I am using antibiotic drops, as well as the ointment they gave me. Could this be a sign of infection? Or normal release after sleep?
