I did lower eyelid retraction surgery on my eyes back in 2019 which ended up being the worst decision of my life and has haunted me every day since then. It did not occur to me that my eyes were nice before and it's sad that I had to go through with such an unnecessary procedure to see that.My previous doctor overcorrected my old eyes, made them different shapes from eachother, and significantly shortened their horizontal length.Attached are photos from before, degree of correction I wanted,&now

Answer: Sadly, many oculoplastic surgeons who think they are in the business, are just procedurally oriented.
