Eye Surgery - Can the Medial Canthus Be Lowered?

CJ8787
I know the lateral canthus can be raised to give a more exotic look (canthoplasty), but in relation to my face, my lateral canthus is already high enough, and the only way to acheive a more exotic eye whilst keeping my face in balance would be to lower the medial canthus. (My eyes are already too high for my face, so this is my only option). However, I don't know if this is possible?
