I really wish that the problem had been as fixable as a razor stroke or two.

That's Western Tazmania. In Eastern Tazmania, they say a new lid and brows makes the man. Besides, once the swelling goes down, the scars from those silicone implants are hardly noticable to the untrained eye.

Implants were the exact opposite of what I needed.

Only where the stitches are. But that's precisely where I can't scratch (doctor's orders).

Shades, are you a prizefighter by trade?

Oh well, I have several sets of spare eyes they're plastic though and I also grow them just about every where on my body they're not plastic. So if you need a new set let me know.

Seriously though about 12 years ago I had an industrial accident where I fell into some re-bar. The re-bar went directly into the left eye socket and took my eye out, cut part of the optic nerve and severely bruised it, the socket had to be rebuilt. I am lucky the rebar didn't go through the bone and into the brain. A lot of the bone was broken and fractured. I actually drove myself 15 miles to the hospital with my eye hanging down on my cheek by my mouth. It was very hard to see and drive. Today no one would know by looking at me and my eye works as perfect as before. I would say that even just 25 years ago I would be wearing a patch.

It's good to have you back and I pray you heal up perfectly, too.

I almost had my eye lids "tucked" a few years ago. I had "floppy eyelid syndrome". They would rub on the pillow at night and fold up a little. They would get irritated and then sore , leading to infections. A tuck would keep that from happening.

I found other non-cutting methods to fix that issue.
