Asked By:Dbyler1516

This was never a problem when I was younger and nobody ever mentioned my eyes. When I turned 17 I started to notice in pictures my eyes looked strange then I joined the marine corps and it got worse. People started pointing out that my eyes were "uneven". It really hit my self confidence hard and I have trouble looking people in the eye worried they might mention my eyes. I also squint alot now especially in pictures to hide my condition. Some days are almost unnoticeable and others much worse
