Ptosis Update

Posted by batik bagoes

This is not my black eye and this eye looks much better than mine does. The surgery went well, but it wasn't the muscle that was the cause of my droopy eye. It was a stroke to the nerve in my eye that created the droopy eye. He went ahead and tightened the muscle to correct the eye as best he could. We aren't going to know the results until the swelling goes down. I have a slit right now so it's anyone guess how the repair will pan out. I'm hoping for the best, but any improvement will be welcome.

I'm currently using and ice pack for 15 minutes of every waking hour and that will end when I go to bed tonight. No pain today, but yesterday it was hurting. A. Lot. I'm glad I had Tylenol. So all is well and I look exactly as I should. Like I've been run over by a very large truck.

Ptosis Surgery

Posted by batik bagoes

Today is a day I've looked forward to for a very long time. This past summer I was scheduled for Ptosis surgery and today is the day. This is minor surgery that will take care of my droopy eyelid. The doctor doing the surgery says that a virus is probably the culprit and that this surgery will correct what has been an aggravation to say the least. When I'm overly tired my left eye is about half closed while my right eye is wide open. Every photograph is awful. That droopy eyelid is all I ever see in any photograph. Below is a video that says it all. I'm only doing the muscle repair, not the removal of fat or a filler. Just so you know.
To say I'm thrilled is indeed an understatement. So if I'm not around very much today or tomorrow you'll know why. Keep your fingers crossed that everything goes well. Thanks!
