Eye Re-Surgery

One month after double eyelid surgery, scar tissue.. Cost of scar tissue treatment

It’s been 1 month since I had incisional double eyelid surgery and ptosis correction, and I went in for my 1-month follow-up. There was slightly bumpy scar tissue along the line, and because of that, the line was forming in multiple folds, so they prescribed me medication. But this medication isn’t covered by insurance, so it was pretty expensive. Is it normal for me to pay for this medication out of pocket?.. The reason I initially decided to have the surgery was because they said that as part of aftercare after double eyelid surgery, if there was scar tissue or scarring, they would give injections without any extra charge. That made me think they provided good aftercare.  They said it wasn’t severe enough to need injections and that medication would be enough, so they prescribed it, but in cases like this, does the patient usually cover the medication cost?…
