But I figured you didn't need a lot of amateur medical advice, and you were on the way to hearing from a REAL doctor. I will say that the prognosis for full recovery is excellent.

Not even necessarily when I'm upset, just if it's reacting to, say, dust in the environment, it overflows much more easily. I think the drainage ducts in that eye might have been damaged slightly.

The entire side of my face froze...even had to tape my eye shut at night. I came out of it just fine, though now that I'm (lots) older, I can see a tiny droop on the side that had it. :-) If I remember correctly, I just had a lot of physical therapy, which ended up being making faces in the mirror until everything Becca Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04406720222082989009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12499392.post-65158193583812440442020-03-26T15:10:24.657-04:002020-03-26T15:10:24.657-04:00So glad he was able to be seen and it sounds as th...So glad he was able to be seen and it sounds as though it is something that can be controlled with proper care and time.
