Is this a stitch sticking out?

It is toward the outer corner of my eye, and it has been 8 years since I had double eyelid surgery with full incision. I had ptosis correction at the same time too. I may not remember properly because I was too young at the time, and since it was seriously a small rural clinic, it is possible the doctor changed the surgical method however he wanted, but as far as I know, it was full incision. When I look at the holes going up and down like that near the outer corner of the eye, it looks to me like an incision stitch was not fully removed. What could that be? It also seems like a ptosis correction stitch might have popped, and I am not sure. And if that is a stitch, it has probably already adhered, so it would be hard to remove. If they just pull it out raw without anesthesia, would it not bleed?,, If it might cause scarring for no reason, I wonder if I should just leave it alone. What does it look like in the photo??
