What Causes Itching In The Eyelid After A Eyelid Lift Surgery?

^ days ago I had a bilateral eyelid lift. check up today was great however, because eyelids are itching from ointment and healing I ve been laying in my bed with feed and head raised with frozen peas on eyelids. could I have developed blood clots? Symptoms; tight throbbing pressure in calves and thighs without the throbbing, a pain just off center in chest to the left side of my body that comes and goes as does the leg pain. I believe I have a new group of varicose veins in left calf right over my shin. no fever, no swelling no spitting up of blood no coughing either just the 2 times od chest pain and pain in legs intermittently but often and I have been laying about for a week since surgery.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Have they used any sutures? Or it could be a mild dry eye after surgery or it could be a side effect of the ointment. Don't worry it should clear up on its own soon.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
