What Can I Do About The Asymmetry of my Eyes? (photo)

So I was born with really asymmetrical eyes. When I was younger, I had physiotherapy to try to keep my head up straight because my eyes are so wonky I compensate for it by holding my head at an angle. This also effects my eyebrows and nose. Basically, I'm really wonky. In theory, can anything be done to correct the height of actual eyes? I'd like to be more symmetrical as people often comment on it and have insulted me because of it.

Botox injections may help with your brow asymmetry.

I read your concerns and reviewed your photos. Here's my take: Your entire face is asymmetrical, but you're attractive. The most obvious area of asymmetry to me is in your eyebrows.

Please do not let a well meaning surgeon touch your medial canthal tendons.

I am also afraid that your mother was taken advantage by being talked into subjecting you to physical therapy to keep your head straight. We all have some degree of facial asymmetry.

Your problem is really not unusual, but the extent is.

When you look at the photo you provided, it appears the asymmetry goes throughout the face. MOST people have a difference in the face from side to side, but yours is more than usual. Correction can sometimes be done by using a maxillofacial surgeon. It is not the usual plastic surgery because it requires the cooperation of a team of plastic surgeons and oral surgeons. However it can be very effective. Most major metropolitan areas have a group which devotes itself to... more

Distopia is the name for this kind of asimetry eyes

I think you have a dislocation or distruption perhaps by a previous accident or gentically of your medial cantal ligament of your right eye. you would need any certified plastic reconstructive surgeon "asaps" may recomend one to put again this medial ligament in the wright place it is a reconstructive 100% technique and stays quite ok the position and corrects the asimetry at least al 90% or 100%

Perhaps a little botox would help

Hello, Thanks for the picture and the description of your concerns (not to take what you are saying lightly but "wonky" was fun a term to read). Judging by your picture, your are very young and very lucky to have the fine features that you do. So I would certainly not advise any surgical procedure for you. It would appear from this picture that you do have some brow asymmetry with your right brow / eyebrow lower than your left. It looks like you are squinting a little bit... more
