Day 6 post surgery : Weds 13 July 05 :
Both eyes. The wet stuff on eyes is lacrilube.

Pics of left eye close up and top view coming up later as I couldn't take clear shots this morning.

My left eye feels still tight, bruised, swollen and vision is blurry on and off. I've been massaging the swollen outer area where the canthopexy was and blob removed and that *smarts*. Icing helps.

The ps did say that when the left eye is fully healed, it still will most likely not be as *big* as the right eye which had the ptosis repair and looks wider opened than the left eye, which is a real bumm cos it will then mean that both eyes are unsymmetrical again whereas this time it'll be the left eye that looks smaller than the right other rather than the other way round which was the case before my original bleph and ptosis repair.

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed and hoping that everything will work out in the end; though know from experience that it'll be weeks if not months before everything truly fully settles down.

You guys reading in probably see both eyes as symmetrical though those veterans out there who're also *upset* with your progress will know that each mm makes a big difference in symmetry. My ps even sent me pictures of my after surgery ie shortly after and months after and pointed out the indifference in both eyes. Those pictures are too large (A4 size) to scan and post here .... though I could try and take a photo of them .... I'll try that later ... maybe
