Best way to correct orbital asymmetry? (Photo)

thealex1986
As you can see from my photo, one eye is much higher in location than the other (but the brow is okay). Thyroid tests are normal and I'm trying to determine the best treatment options. I heard about augmenting the bone via orbital decompression but I'm more interested in possibly an implant to lift up the lower eye. For my case, which this be rather complex? Should I just leave it alone? It does bother me, especially in photos.
