Did my upper Eyelid Surgery result in blocked oil glands & blepharitis, will it be chronic or eventually resolve itself? photo

Blepharitis is a relatively common condition that can start at any age, with no known reason why some get and some don't. It can result in eyelid styes (or chalazions). Most patients with blepharitis have never had any previous eyelid procedures, so it is impossible to say that your previous eyelid surgery contributed to developing blepharitis. See an oculoplastic specialist for treatment.

Changes in the blink function of the eyes could contribute to meibomian gland dysfunction.  Cutting the upper eyelid to perform blepharoplasty can weaken the upper eyelid blink function.  Did this blepharitis-maybe.  It certainly did not help the situation.  It would be interesting to know if all four eyelid margins are affected equally or if it is only the upper eyelids.  If all four eyelids are equally involved, then one would be hard pressed to blame the eyelid surgery.  On the other hand, if only the upper eyelid margins are affected, then I think a much stronger case could be made that in some way, the upper eyelid surgery contributed to the situation. The warm compresses and lid scubs are helpful.  It is also important that you dry eye status be checked and you get appropriate treatment for dry eye.  Find a sympathetic ophthalmologist who actually takes in interest in caring for you.  That is sometimes a tall order because many consider the treatment of blepharitis and unexciting.  Antibiotic ointment and low dose tetracycline (oracea) can be helpful  in clearing up the meibomitis.

In the immediate post-op phase, you may get some inflammation in the glands from the surgery.  Yours started more than a year post-op.  Blepharitis is a chronic inflammation of the eyelid glands, and is seen with age, and in patients with rosacea.  Eyelid scrubs and warm compresses can help.  Sometimes we will add additional medications such as an eye ointment to be used at bedtime.  Low dose Doxycycline pills can also help to improve the condition of the glands, especially in patietnts with rosacea.  

If your present upper edge of lid issue began over a year after the surgery very hard to believe there is any relationship... 

it is unlikely that her eyelid surgery is related to your current issue.  If you are going through menopause or you are postmenopausal this can play a role.  A diet that is not supplemented with generous amounts of omega-3's and water can also play a role.  I would go see an oculoplastic surgeon as opposed to a medical ophthalmologist to see what their opinion as before proceeding with other therapies.
