Right eyelid folding abnormal. What can I do to fix this? (Photo)

April 18, 2022
Asked By:Ncaru01 in Las Vegas, Nevada

I noticed about 18 months ago my right eyelid started folding differently. It was mildly bothersome. I noticed when doing a verification photo that it had looked significantly different since then. The right eye seems to stay slightly more open especially later in the day. My left looks normal to me. I initially thought ptosis but it actually appears the R eyelid is more hollow to myself. I had a normal MRI and the optometrist did not offer any valuable insight
