Hi, I was wandering whether anything can be done for my uneven eyes. My right eye is significantly lower than my left eye (I have had this since birth), and it affects my right eyelid. Although it doesn't affect my vision, I am very self conscious about this and hate having my photo taken. Some people have noticed, while others say they never noticed until I pointed it out. Can anything be done to even this out?

Answer: Uneven eyes It looks to me that you have differential development on both sides of the face. It is not unusual to have facial asymetry as a result of different size facial bones , their contours and their position. This will effect the soft tissues which results in the look that you are perceiving [for example the right eye looks lower and smaller than the left] .. What to do is a dilemma in that bone repositioning is very detailed and involved work and unless the deficiencies and the deformities are significant, you should give any thought of reconstruction long and thorough investigation. Seek out several consultations with PS's in your area. But remember--no one is perfect and discrepancies in appearance are the norm rather than the exception... Good Luck
