Can surgery be performed to make eyes smaller?

haffyb
I often here about surgery being performed in order to make eyes bigger and I was wondering if the reverse can be done. My eyes are really big and goggly similar to those with thyroid eye disease only my eyes are healthy. The white eyeball sticks out a lot and my eyes pop out when I look down. I was called names like frog eyes when I was younger which makes me more self consious about them.
