Why is my one eye bigger than the other? (Photo)

Hello! My name is Jessica, I am a physician assistant, and one of the providers at Shah Facial Plastics. This is a great question. I highly recommend scheduling an in-person consultation in order to better assess your areas of concern and discuss an appropriate treatment plan to help achieve your aesthetic goals.

None of us are perfectly symmetric and there are normal variations of this. However, there are also more concerning medical conditions that can cause this. If you have had this all your life, not likely concerning but if more recent progression, you will need to get this evaluated. There are various procedures that can be done to improve symmetry of the eyes or reduce the appearance of the bulging eye - such as orbital decompression or eyelid surgeries. Again, you need a thorough in-person evaluation first. Hope this is helpful.

Mild asymmetry is normal, and everybody has it. In your case the degree of asymmetry is noticeable, and it looks like you may have exophthalmus on your left eye.
I suggest consulting with an ocular plastic surgeon in your community to get an assessment regarding the eye position in relationship to your skeletal structure and an evaluation for possible treatment. It would be important to know if this condition has always been this way or if it’s changing. If it’s changing the importance of getting an evaluation would be Needed sooner rather than later.
