I am doing much better, thanks to your prayers and the skill of a very good doctor!
I can see better already. The lower eyelid wasn’t lifting at all, which made my eye look as though it was “at attention” at all times. It didn’t droop, but just didn’t lift up. As it didn’t close properly, I had to keep gel in it all day. For the healing process, I still do, but that’s a temporary thing.
The other issue was the eyebrow lifted a little, but it still encumbered my range of vision. Now that it’s lifted, that’s not a problem anymore.
The doctor did a great job and while I would rather have been in a situation where these procedures weren’t necessary, I am glad that she is the one who helped.
The bandages will stay on for a week, so Wednesday is the day that I will be bandage-free. In the meantime, I will wear a scarf over them so as not to look too messy. Oh wait! LOL
Thank you for your prayers, friendship and support!
Cheers,
save

Duplicate post!
It’s wonderful that you can already tell improvement with your vision, Win. Thank you Lord, for prayers answered!
I know what you mean! Antibiotics on an empty stomach is definitely not the way to take them! Don't forget to eat yogurt with live bacteria, or drink acidophilus milk to replace your good bacteria too. ; ) LOL. (((Hugs)))

Thank you, Alamo-Girl! (((Hugs)))
Nice to read some good news! (((saveliberty)))
To cover the bandages I, your friend, have the solution...a burka. (sp?) Not only would it conceal your bandages, but it is quite in vogue with the current regime.
Glad all went well.

heh. Check your mail.
