I have uneven eyes and it is very noticeable in pictures. It is not something I notice in the mirror. How could this be? (Photo)

Eye shape is determined by complex of set of structures including eyelids, eyeball, bones, etc. Yes change is possible (likely via lower eyelid retraction surgery with canthoplasty) but need personal evaluation to determine realistic goals and risks involved. See website link for more information.
