Muscle tightening in right eye? (photo)

September 1, 2014
Asked By:Djkal in Canada, KY

Although I know faces are rarely symmetrical, Moles (now removed), one ear tucked behind more than the other etc. I have one major issue...drooping of the lower, inner part of the eyelid (my right) As an actor I've learned to slightly squint my right eye on camera so it's less noticeable, but wondered this could be fixed, I've looked into treatments for 'droopy' eyes but it all seems aimed at the elderly which is a totally different problem. What could be done?
