2.5 months ago I had hard pallete grafts and a lateral tarsal strip performed in both eyes to reduce my lagophthalmos. The problem is that there is now assymetry between the two sides, with my left side being higher and shorter, while my right side has dropped and the corner has blunted. The surgeon has suggested reperforming a lateral tarsal strip to reposition the right corner higher, but I am also unhappy with how squinty my left looks... what is possible at this point?
