Last Monday I had Blepharoplasty or cosmetic surgery on my eyelids. (The promised pictures for my grandsons will be posted soon!) I have a friend that had it done a few years ago and she told me it would be a 2-3 week recovery. For some reason I didn't listen to the voice of experience and figured I would recover much quicker than she did (she did have some complications that I avoided). It looks like you do not get out of this surgery in less than a 2 week recovery time. Yesterday I thought I would go for a ride with Clyde as he did some errands. My neighbor saw me and was horrified. He immediately looked at Clyde like 'Did you do that to her!' I had to explain the surgery and even though it was overcast go outside with wraparound sunglasses on. I didn't want anyone to think badly of my husband. You see no sutures right now because my eyes are so swollen and black and blue. I just look like I was beaten really badly around my eyes.
On the plus side. I am already seeing a big difference in my peripheral vision. Even though my vision is still fuzzy, things are brighter. I can't wait for the recovery to be over to see the end result. I also don't like Clyde having to wait on me. I miss fixing him meals and making sure life is going well for him. He has been so loving and caring. I want to be able to do my job again.
