Would Botox help my uneven eyes? Have completely uneven eyes. (photo)

Question

I have completely uneven eyes. To me my right eye is my “normal” eye. The left eye is more open and slanted upwards than the right. I often get a throbbing pain in or behind my left eye. It also becomes dry and watery multiple times throughout the day. Would it be possible to fix this issue and make my eyes more even? Could Botox help or would I have to get surgery?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Jonathan Kulbersh, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. Combining Botox Cosmetic with an injectable filler treatment may help to lift the brow and refresh the eye to obtain the symmetrical appearance you’re looking for. However, cosmetic procedures are unlikely to address the pain and moisture issues you describe. I recommend that you schedule an in-person consultation with a physician, and an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon to decide on the best treatment plan for your specific concerns.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

I encourage you to begin by visiting with an ocular specialist to evaluate the dry eye symptoms and eye pain.  Once those issues are resolved if you still have concerns cosmetically, you may be a candidate for Botox.

Hello @Generous744139 thank you for your question and showing your picture. Body parts do not all have the same size or shape. There are generally certain asymmetries. For example, one eyebrow is different from the other and the same happens with our eyes. For a proper assessment I suggest you consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD FACS

Hi there, If your concern is about lifting your eyes to have a more awake or refreshed appearance I actually think Upneeq may be a great option for you. Botox in the pretarsal space (upper lid) may help this as well but I think the eye drops would be an easier option.
