After a blepharoplasty will my eyes be sensitive to the light?

Question:
I am scheduled for a lower lid blepharoplasty. After the surgery will my eyes be sensitive to the light? For how long?

Answer:
Following lower eyelid surgery your eyes will be sensitive to many things, light being one of them. Light sensitivity should only last a couple of days and your other sensitivities should only last a few days after that.
