Eye Re-Surgery@eye-redo

I had revision incisional eye-shape correction (ptosis correction) today, and this is right after, but the swelling...

<Before revision surgery><Right after revision surgery><4 hours after revision surgery>Only one eye had ptosis, and I had it corrected with an incisional method about 10 years ago. As I got older, the ptosis came back, so I went to the hospital today and had revision surgery. Right after the surgery, the eye on the side that had ptosis wouldn’t close, so it stung and was so uncomfortable that I teared up. Now that the anesthesia has worn off and 4 hours have passed, it’s still dry, but less so than immediately after. But my eye feels a bit more swollen than right after? Can it swell more later than immediately after? Will it swell more tomorrow? Is this not very swollen, considering? I’m also worried about the dryness and stinging. Are these temporary symptoms that will go away after some time?
