Ever since my blepharoplasty my lower right eyelid has been numb

July 2, 2010 by Dr. Epstein

Question:

Ever since my  blepharoplasty my lower right eyelid has been numb.  It has now been two and a half months.  I am getting worried that this should have  cleared up by now.  Is this something to  be worried about and when will the numbness finally clear up?

Answer:

I would say that at  two and half months, if you still have numbness under your lower eyelid, that  is definitely of some concern.  When I do  a blepharoplasty, I rarely have any numbness underneath the eyelid and  certainly if I saw something there after about two weeks I would have some  concern about that. It still may clear up and I am not sure there is anything  specific that can be done for it even if it does not want to clear up, but I  would say at two and a half months there is definitely some concern that it may  be permanent.
