Eyes don't match. Would there be any way to fix this? (Photo)

E
EyezOnWrongNov 23, 2017

My eyelids have never matched. One seems to be more hooded than the other. I'm not sure which side is more flattering to my face, but I have always wanted eyelids that open the same. It is difficult to put on makeup because they simply just don't look the same. Would there be any way to fix this? I don't even really want surgery on both eyes, I just want one to match the other. What are my options?

H1. You need ptosis repair of the left and possibly the right upper lid. Research, research and research some more. I would suggest an occuloplastic surgeon who do this type of surgery day in and day out. Good luck, Dr PG
