Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hi! Wow I'm still in ahh over how many other people are faced w/ the same situations w/ blepharopimosis. I'm 20 yrs old and had over 25 surgeries from having a muscle taken from my leg to skin behind my ears attached to my eye lid. I've had artificial muscle to help hold my eyelids up also. With that said, if anyone has any questions about surgeries, I can give a honest opinion from a first had basis. Other than that I can start off by saying how mean our society can be. I can remember being in elementary school and being picked on and still I get strange looks. In my opinion, dealing with others was much harder on me than any surgery could of posssibly been. I still get faced w/ it on a daily basis. When people describe who I am, they refer to my eyes. It's a never ending label I feel like i'm faced with. If I could do it all over w/ I don't know if all of the surgeries were necessary. My scars will always be there no matter how much make up i put on. Any questions about anything just post a message -stayce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
