Is Drifting Of The Right Eye, Post Right-sided Rhinoplasty And Septoplasty, Temporary?
Hi. My daughter had rhinoplasty and septoplasty yesterday. In the afternoon we noticed that her right eye ( the same side as the main problem area of her nose ) was drifting to the right . She has never a problem with her eyes before . She has had anaesthetic before and experienced no problems . Do you think this is temporary or may some damage been done ? Thank you Norma

Is Drifting Of The Right Eye, Post Right-sided Rhinoplasty And Septoplasty, Temporary?
Hello, Post rhinoplasty drifting of eyes is unusual. But there s will be uneven eyes due to swelling. It may take 2-8weeks to reduce swelling. But in the case of squint means then there will be temporary ocular muscle function reduction due to edema. Use painkiller medication, with anti-edema measures. If symptoms not improved please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
