What sort of surgery will I need to get in order to correct a negative canthal tilt and obtain almond eyes? (photos)

Someone mentioned to me recently that I have a negative canthal tilt, and that in order to fix it for aesthetic purposes I should look into canthoplasty options (specifically with regards to almond eye and cat eye surgeries and the like). I have posted a few pics of my eyes below. I was curious as to whether or not I have a negative canthal tilt.

What will make the result last longer is not drill hole but rather proper release of the lower eyelid ligaments using internal lower eyelid retraction surgery. Of course, best to have evaluation in consultation for proper treatment plan. See an expert oculoplastic surgeon.
