You have bilateral upper eyelid ptosis with central levator disinsertion. One eye has more ptosis than the other with more eyebrow compensation.  That accounts for the asymmetry. The most common type of ptosis surgery performed is posterior approach ptosis also called mueller's muscle conjunctival resection ptosis surgery. Surgeons like this surgery because it is quick and the anatomy is simple. Unfortunately this type of ptosis surgery will not work on you. You need bilateral anterior levator resection ptosis surgery with an anchor blepharoplasty. This surgery is best performed under light intravenous sedation. Your eyes can be your best feature.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello! Thank you for your question.As far as I can see your photos your eye corners are very downward and one of your eye brow is more lower than the other one. For improve the symmetry between your eye area I recommend you endoscopic brow lift and cat eye procedure. Please keep in mind that %100 symmetry is not achievable in any case. Best Regards!
