Asked By:1811fab in Great Britain, GB

I've noticed that one eye is higher than the other, this happens to be more prominent in photos, and is something I feel conscious about. Is there any thing I could do to help correct this asymmetry or any surgical procedures that could help. If it helps to know, i do wear glasses and my left eye is my weaker one.
