My eyes have settled in pretty well. Still have tenderness on right inside part of eye but significantly less each week. I also no longer have that feeling like something is stuck in my right eye.

Can still see slight scar on my left eye (see pic). My swelling has gone down a lot and now I wonder if a little more should have been taken. I still notice the difference when doing my eye make up. I was lazy with my make up this morning - don't judge it in my pics! Happy recovery all!

I have followed your post faithfully and I am so amazed yours turn out. I had my upper eyelids done yesterday afternoon. Thank you for the great tips on your post. It's very much appreciated. And you look fabulous!!

I am having upper Bleph done in about 2 1/2 wks. Just saw Dr for measurements yesterday. Your posts from day to day have been so very interesting to follow along and to see what might be anticipated, although I know all folks are different, extremely helpful to hear from you? See you, as each step unfolds( no pun intended!) I'm praying mine will go well as seems yours did. God bless.

My eyes are still a bit tender near the eyelashes when I apply make up. The swelling has greatly reduced along with all but one of my stitch marks (hard to see it in the pictures). No one has said anything at work or seemed to notice and I prefer that - just wanted a subtle change. I can tell a difference in applying my eye make up. Still putting in the ointment most nights esp in my right eye.

Hi.. I'm starting my 5th day po. Your story has kept my spirits up and I often look at your pictures and compare my eyes to yours. Yours are lovely, good job! Mine don't look much different to before except they are bruised, red and have 2 scars! I'm really hoping my surgeon wasnt too subtle as I wouldn't really want another surgery if he didn't take enough skin away. My eyelids still very saggy/droopy but I'm hoping its swelling. I do compare my right eye to your right eye and its good to see yours did sort it self out.. Lucky you.. Keep posting as your story/pictures gives us an idea of what will come for us.. Thanks :)

Hi dear, I would like to tell you that you look great! Just perfect! I had my upper eyelid done 16 days ago, I use to have very puffy eyes, I really liked the results but I am concerned about the scar. My PS recommend massaging the incision with an eye cream twice daily, I`ve been doing this and don't see results. I have a few bumps and discoloration across the line. Do you mind to give me some advice or suggest a cream or any product to help? I really appreciate your attention. Many thanks, Anastacia

Thank you so much! I haven't put anything on my scars except a tad of ointment at night so they don't dry out under my air vent. I bought new (and cheap) eye make up that is hypo allergenic and I make sure to clean my face every night. Without my make up and my eyes closed my scar is visible. I think it is just going to take time.
