Can brow reduction be done to remove bone growth pushing against my eye?

eyestothesoul
I took an elbow to the brow and got bone growth in the spot of impact. For years now I noticed my eyes are uneven with that one eye having a very negative canthal tilt. The bone also pushes the eye so that air enters the eye socket which makes it dry and inflamed by the end of the day. Since the bone growth from that hit is downward toward the eye I am unsure if it can be safely burred down to normal size, or if I can get medical to cover it. Was told it would resorb, here I am 7 years later.
