A friend had a Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) to add a second lid, but apparently, when he took a vacation to the province, his grandmother couldn't recognize him anymore. The old woman was confused: "Iho, kaninong anak ka ba, wala yatang ganyang mata sa dugo natin?" ("My Child, whose son are you, I think our bloodline doesn't have those kind of eyes?")
LESSON: Don't make it permanent. We can take lessons from our Asian neighbors. Use a removeable eyelid glue perhaps for the parties in the city... then your good, old eyes when visiting the grandma.
