Hi about 8 years ago I got hit on my left eye and got a small cut under the corner of the lid. A few days my eye heeled from the bruising, though my eye seemed to be a little smaller than my right eye. I have an eye bag a bit bigger than my right. I am sure it has to do with the accident I never had this before and till now I still have it. I have been with the opto but my eye seems fine I can see and I have no problems but the eye bag. It looks like my eye got pushed up a bit. Can it be fix?
