Brief Answer:
Are you able to close your eyes well?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

Am curious and would like to know if you are able to close the eyes well? Did this start after the extensive surgery on the neck region or before? This is because the nerve which controls the production of tears could have been injured. Finally, have you been seen by an ophthalmologist? If yes, kindly communicate his findings to me.

I hope to hear from you. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
