What kind of procedure would you recommend to fix my ears?

I think I've slept on my right side my whole life, thus developed this asymmetry. It seems like my right ear is pinned back more than the left. My left ear is also signficantly lower than my right. It makes wearing my glasses a serious pain in the butt and very distracting in my daily life. There is a significant gap. If I put on my glasses, I can fit the tip of my finger in the gap between the left ear and the temple of the glasses that is supposed to rest my ears.
