Is one eye bulging or is one of my eyelids drooping or both? (Photo)

ampr37
One eyelid is showing more than the other or one has started dropping. Sometimes it doesn't look bad and other times during the day it looks like one eye is much bigger than the other. This has just started happening recently. I went to see my family physician and he said it was caused by a migraine and stress and gave medicine. But, it's been a couple weeks with no improvement. I had a thyrodectomy 10 yrs ago and take a thyroid replacement medicine. Thank you in advance for your help.
