I notice my right eyelid is way lower than my left eye. It's very noticeable when I take front facing photos. My left eye looks higher then the other. Does it look like I have ptosis? I do wear glasses I have worn them nearly all my life I would like to start wearing contacts I'm just afraid because I don't want people to notice my uneven eyes. Would I benefit from surgery on the eyelid ? What can be done? I just want even symmetrical eyes. I will add a few photos to show.
