Me too. I get that she's in a better place. However, if I'm in a better place my face spiritually, my face doesnt morph into looking like a totally different person. Cut the bullshit.

I was just thinking the same thing! I've thought about having the puffy area above my eyes removed, just changed my mind.

regular people. I had my eyelids done because I had ptosis that affected my vision. It had bothered me since I was 15. Had it done at 29. Doctor said it was one of the worse cases she had seen.

This is me, too, although I was only affected in one eye. It was badly affecting my vision. I'm assuming Zellweger had surgery to correct the same.

This. Eyelid ptosis is a real thing - it's genetic. My dad has it and I will too, someday. The upper eyelid on a slightly hooded eye sags with age and droops over time, eventually to the point that it touches or even goes past the eyelashes. Good times. I have no idea if this is what RZ had, but it's a legit reason for an eye job. That said, eye jobs never seem to look right - not sure why.

+another here. My poor dad's vision is so obstructed now, but he's scared of the surgery. Apparently this is a huge disadvantage of our "exotic" Slavic features! Agree with PPs who said RZ looks like Robin Wright now. If you didn't know what she looked like before, I doubt you'd think much about her appearance. To me it doesn't look artificial so much as it looks completely different than she used to.

She is now at peace with her life and her relationships and that has affected her appearance.

Does she really think all of us are just stupid....???

I just saw this on the Today show. So stupid.

I don't think she's had any work. She's aging and not aging well. The very dry, chapped lips don't help. She's look extremely parched.

I immediately wondered if she had a medical issue that was related to the change. It was just shocking how different she looked from her old self. I think she still looks nice, just unrecognizable.

Yes, so unworthy of comment...

The hell?? It's an observation. We're human. We're supposed to have reactions to situations that are unexpected. We aren't friggin robots.

She looks like every other realtor in Bethesda now!
