One of my eyes is deeper set than the other, causing that side of my face to sit lower. Initially, I thought it was simply that the left eyebrow was placed lower, but now I realize that the left eyelid sags, and the eye it's self is simply placed lower on my face. I doubt you can change orbital structure, but I would like to correct the brow position, and lid sagging on the lower placed eye, as well as hollowness in BOTH eyes. Would a brow lift correct the VERY minimal upper lid sagging as well? How much would this cost?
