Right eye won't open in the morning

Right eye won't open in the morning

I was diagnosed with migraines, but my right eye will not open upon awakening in the morning.  No other sysmptoms in eyes and my optomologist has confirmed that my eyes are fine.  Also my right eyelid is drooping a little and my eyes are a little bloodshot upon awakening.  But the right eye not opening seems to be that my eye muscles are not working properly.  Please Help!

A droopy eyelid is called  "ptosis". I suggest you see an ophthalmologist  that specializes in ptosis. They are called oculoplastic surgeons. You can find one near you at www.aao.org   When you go in take 4 or 5 old pictures taken 5-10 years ago that show well the position of your eyelid. Do not let the technicians put any drops in your eyes till the oculoplastic surgeon has a look at them.

Also have someone photograph your red droopy eyelid on wakening and take those in also.
