Are my eyes too close together? (Photo)

Question

I used to think that my eyes were my only good feature but I noticed about a year or two ago that they are too close together. However, when I ask my family they say it's fine. I want to get some unbiased opinions on this. I really dislike how all of my facial features work against each other. Measuring from corner to corner the best that I can, I found that my eyes are just under 4cm apart. Thank you!

The normal distance from the inter corner of one eye to the other eye is 3.3 cm on most attractive faces. If the nose bridge is too projected or too narrow it can make the eyes appear too close to each other without being too close. You may want consult a plastic surgeon who has craniofacial training to analyze your face,  if you are too concerned. It is hard to advise you without the profile view.

Jessica Kulak, MD · Answer

In evaluating your pictures, your eyes look to to be the normal distance apart and your face looks well balanced.  Selfies and FaceTime camera images can distort your features, so try not to utilize these tools to over analyze your features.

No, I do not think your eyes are close together at all, it should not be a concern at this stage.
