How can I fix my eye asymmetry? (Photos)

Asked By:Jcoe5 in Scranton, Pennsylvania

Hi, when I was younger I was in a traumatic bicycle accident on the right side of my face that produced nerve damage. Over the years the asymmetry got worse and more evident. This picture is a few years ago, I have had ptosis surgery that was covered by insurance since, but my eyes still are asymmetrical. To me it's clear that my one eye is positioned higher than the other. You can see that my entire eye socket is positioned this way as well. My nose is another product of the bike accident. But for this post, I would love any feedback please on what procedures would fix this asymmetry as it is something that truly hinders my day to day life. I have done a ton of research and came across the usual blepharoplasty, strabismus surgery, retraction repairs, orbital surgery, and etc. None of my asymmetry that I want to correct is genetic, it is all a product of that accident I had and I would love to fix it so I can finally move on with my life. Thank you for any responses please.
