Eyelid surgeries is not predictable. It depends on your body healing to a large extend. So even if lid looks corrected initially, later due to internal scar formation (fibrosis) , your condition can worsen or get better.
Next Steps
In case of mild disease, better stay away from surgery. if worsening, plan for a surgery.
