Why Are my Eyes Different Sizes?

April 26, 2011
Asked By:Michael M. in Haddonfield, IL

I'm in my late 30s but I only started noticing a few years ago that my eyes are shaped differently and uneven. Looking back at old photos I guess it has always been there, but it seems to be getting worse. People around me tell me it's unnoticeable but I think they are just being nice. What is the cause and is there a fix?
