Potential flat nasal bridge / epicanthal fold causing mild crossed eye appearance when looking at angle (Photo)

February 11, 2024
Asked By:beach888 in London, GB

Please can someone advise me. Since birth I have had a flat nasal bridge and I believe folds in my eye areas this has improved a lot with aging but I have never fully grown out of the Pseudostrabismus look. Eyes were tested many times as a child and they are 100 straight my parents were told I would grow out it or na nasal graft when I was bigger but nothing ever done. Can this be solved with eye lid surgery, or fillers in the nasal bridge or full surgery. What is the best way please help

Eric M. Joseph, MD says:

Based on your photo, you appear to have prominent foot plates of your medial crural cartilages. This is right next to your nasal sills, so I can understand your labeling. When these foot plates are prominent, as in your situation, they may be sutured together to be minimized during rhinoplasty....

Can rasping of a callus cause an inverted V deformity?
Shabnam Ghazizadeh, MD says:

Hi @lovybunny, Excellent question. Technically yes if the rasping is done too forcefully or in a location where it causes separation of the upper lateral cartilages from the nasal bones. I recommend a consultation with a rhinoplasty specialist. Best of luck, Dr. Ghazizadeh
