Getting Back To Activities After Upper Eyelid Surgery
Video transcript: Recovery from upper eyelid surgery is generally uneventful. Most people can go back to day to day household activities the following day. Patients do have to be careful however, not to do any strenuous activity. We want to make sure your blood pressure and heart rate stay low for at least a couple weeks after surgery to decrease the risk of having bleeding beneath the skin as mentioned as one of the potential risks of the surgery.
