1 Day Post Op - one thing freaking me out...

Had my surgery yesterday aged 36. I've had an outward turn in my left eye that's progressively gotten worse throughout adulthood and finally decided to do something.

My original surgery was when I was about 6 to correct the inwards turn.

It's looking good now with my glasses on and when focusing near distance but with glasses off and focusing longer distance my right eye is now turning inwards a lot. This is new and alarming. I've never had this before and frankly I think it looks worse than the outward turn I had originally.

If I close my right eye and reopen it, it's default position behind my eyelid is turned inwards. It's like there's a tug of war behind my eyes and the surgery is just moving the centre of balance from one place to another.

Should I be alarmed or is this normal for day one?
