I don't know if one of my eyes are just smaller or if they are different shapes.
Answer: Orbital anatomy and eye position You're eyes are in slightly different positions mostly likely due to differences in facial anatomy on the two sides. There's a slight looseness of the left crease at the inner corner that accentuates this but I think you're just fine. I wouldn't seek surgery for this at this stage in your life.Chase Lay, MD

Answer: Asymmetric Eyes I agree with Dr. Kaltreider. This is an eye muscle problem that not everyone will recognize nor know we hat to do for. Make sure you see an ophthalmologist who is an eye muscle specialist. They are not that common.

Answer: Possible esotropia Your photographs suggest that you may have esotropia. On the left photograph, the right eye is "fixing" on the camera and the left eye is turned toward the nose. On the right photograph, the left eye is fixing on the camera while the right eye is turned in toward the nose. This may be present from birth or an acquired problem that may be addressed by a strabismus specialist, an ophthalmologist who specializes in treatment of the muscles attached to the eyes. The treatment may range from contact lenses or glasses, outpatient surgery, or treatment of underlying causes. I would recommend that you see a strabismus specialist for treatment recommendations. Once the eyes are properly aligned, you may notice improved symmetry.
