New pics. Less swelling, more symmetry. Still some ectropian so I Have dry eye issues but it does seen to be getting better. My right eye seems to be worse than the left and the scar is very raised at this point on the upper outer edge o my lid. Other than that, things are going well. If the ectropian and dry eye went away I'd be ecstatic!

I am so happy to see this - I will be 70 on the 19th and the 22nd I go for surgery. I feel confident with my surgeon - but still???????? I to have that fear of not waking up from anesthesia but he said I would be "under" for about 15 minutes - then they back off so I can respond. They did this when I had cataract surgery and I don't remember a think ie talking to them. Anyway - praying for the best as my eyesight is less because of the dropping eyelid.

Happy early birthday, Carol!  I hope you write a review about your experience.  I was scared about the anesthesia too, but it all went well.  You will do great!

Thanks - I do eed encouragement - and reading these posts have helped me. At least now I know what to expect. My surgeon is great - but I question if they tell it all.

A bag of frozen peas wrapped in a dish towel works great because you can mold the bag to your face.  I personally bought a eye mask online that can be both frozen and heated up.  I still use it, I love it.  Whatever you do buy more than one so you can always have a cold one handy.  I'm sure the other community members also have some good suggestions too!
