Firstly, you shall need to have another person drive you home after you do the eyelid plastic surgery. You shall also ask someone to stay with you the night of the procedure.
You shall expect and plan to stay home from work and limit your activities and behaviours for several days or weeks after the eyelid surgery to give your eyelids a better chance to heal. Some patients often experience dry eyes after surgery, but the condition rarely lasts more than two weeks. If you have dry eyes lasting over two weeks, please contact your doctor.
At home, you should have the following items readily accessible:
Ice cubes
Ice pack or you can use freezer bags filled with ice, frozen corn or peas.
Small gauze pads
Bowl (for water)
Eye drops or artificial tears (ask your doctor to recommend the proper type to meet your particular needs)
Clean washcloths and towels
Over-the-counter painkillers (which your doctor can recommend)
