Eye Re-Surgery

I had double-line removal, but I don’t know how I should open my eyes

Double-line removal + ptosis correction + fat repositioning I’m on day 3 and still have stitches in right now. On the first day, my irises were barely visible (one eye has severe ptosis, so that’s why ptosis correction was included..), so I was worried that if things stayed like this, the ptosis correction would turn out badly. Even though the swelling was really severe, I practiced opening my eyes wide and deliberately looked upward to stimulate the swelling, you know? I heard that if you can’t go for walks, this helps the swelling go down But now that I think about it, I didn’t just have a regular double-eyelid surgery; I had double-line removal and fat repositioning. If I force myself to open my eyes wide while there’s swelling, could the new line get ruined and the previous line pop back out..? Could it also negatively affect the fat repositioning settling into place? I suddenly got scared, so I’m wondering if I should relax my eyes again starting today. I don’t know what’s right. If I keep my eyes relaxed and start practicing opening them after the stitches are removed, it won’t be too late, right?
