What can be done to correct my bulging eyes? Are they normal? (Photos)

Asked By:fizzingwhizbee11 in La Canada Flintridge, CA

I grew up thinking I had eye bags, but as I got older realized that it's actually that my eyes are very prominent. I've had a doctor get suspicious about a thyroid problem, and I'm not sure if my eyes had to do with that. Is it normal for eyes to be this pronounced? I know that my midface is underdeveloped, is that playing a part? Could tear trough fillers and cheek fillers help with this? This has been bothering me so much since I was a young girl. Any advice is appreciated.
