Asymmetrical eyes - what would I need to do to rectify this? (Photo)

Hello! Thank you for your question and pictures! This is a common question. Every single person is asymmetric throughout their body and this includes the eyes. Another cause to eye asymmmetry is ptosis, but in order to determine that, you would need to undergo an examination by a specialist. Asymmetries and eyelid wrinkles can be corrected with blepharoplasty cosmetic eyelid surgery. It is one of the first cosmetic surgeries people usually get. While the average age might be 30 to 50's, some patients get this done in their 20s. It really depends on your unique anatomy as well as what exactly is bothering you. That said, even after surgery I always warn patients that there will still be asymmetry and things will not look 100% perfectly even because some asymmetries cannot be corrected unless you reposition bone, remove muscle etc. and somethings are just not worth doing.Botox injections as well as laser treatments can also be a tremendous benefit if you are not interested in surgery. Of course, there are also many combinations.

I would recommend that you see a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area that is a member of both ASPS & ASAPS and performs a lot of eyelid surgery but also offers all the nonsurgical options such as injectables and laser treatments. Go over your concerns with them and make sure above all,you walk out of there with several options and an idea of the pros and cons to each of them as well as realistic expectations.

What one can see from your photos is a brow asymmetry. Only on the basis of in person consultation, one could evaluate and discuss eye asymmetry (possible ptosis). In person consultation with a board certified plastic or oculoplastic surgeon is recommended.

The eye closed image does not demonstrate what the eyelids do when they are open. That is the detail that is needed to have a better understanding of your concern. The two other pictures are very low resolution. It does show that the left eyelid is heavy but little else. Please consider reposting with a more detailed close up image like the first one but with your eyes open.

I close up photo of your eyes when they are open would be helpful to try and determine what might be the cause of your eye asymmetry. Ptosis is a common cause of eyelid asymmetry, but with only the photos you provided, it is difficult to determine if this might be your issue
