eye spring
« on: April 15, 2007, 02:01:27 pm »
Does anyone out there have a eye spring?  How do you like it, who put it in and how was the recovery time.  I have a weight but I don't like the way my eye looks with it.  But since I have a numb cornea that poses problems.. Levine in California   does the eye spring                  and I am curious about it.  Karen

Hi Karen:  Kate had a spring put in -    look under Facial Issues:  Facial Paralysis.    Maybe you can contact her.    I'm going to ask my doc who does the weight implants about it when I see him 4/26, also going to ask about the plugs for the tear ducts. 
Best wishes my friend,   Nancy
