I was in a car accident and hit my face hard enough on the side panel to rip open my eyelid, and I had to have it stitched back together. The cut healed fine, but now my eyelid droops down so far that when I have my eyes open the bad one is practically halfway over my pupil. The doctor said they can't fix it surgically for six months, because it's still healing, and he said there's less than a fifty percent chance he'll even have to operate on it. It's been two months since the accident, and while it has improved, it doesn't feel like it is going back to normal. Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with something like this.
