Can surgery fix my eye that looks smaller & lower following car crash & surgery?

Question

I was in a car crash 2 months ago where I had 2 fractured jaws. My eye at the time got lower than my other eye looking like it was falling. It was very noticeable and under my eye looked very hollow. A month after, a couple of weeks ago, I got surgery and it changed my eye shape. My eye now looks smaller and lower and I was wondering if I could get surgery to fix it back to how it used to look before the accident. It’s been very difficult for me to be around people and in social events

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

It appears that your condition could be improved. However, only on the basis of in person consultation with a board certified plastic or oculoplastic surgeon you could get more information in that regard. Good luck.

Thank you for your question and photos. You really need an in person exam and consultation with a fellowship trained  Oculuplastic surgeon. You need a complete review of previous procedures and imaging to determine the current issues and formulate a plan. Best of luck
