Why is one of my eyes appear to look bigger than the other only in pics? Front facing camera it looks the same size and also in the mirror. But when someone takes a pick of me, my eyes appear to be different sizes?? How do my eyes really look to people who see me? I did have a cut on my upper eye as a child. Can this be the cause?
