Does my eyeball stick out further than normal? (Photo)

November 24, 2023
Asked By:218218 in Mount Airy, Maryland

Hi. I pulled my eyebrows up to see my eye shape since it’s covered by a strong hooded lid. I wanted to get a brow lift and the hooded eye surgery but I’m afraid if I get that done, it’ll make my eye look too prominent and bulbous. Is it too far out? What doctor should I see to measure it and can I fix it naturally or is surgical intervention my only option?

Mats Hagstrom, MD (license on probation) says:

This is totally dependent on each surgeons opinion. There’s no reason why you couldn’t have eyelid surgery immediately after gallbladder removal as long as everything goes fine with the first procedure. Some surgeons may want you to wait a specific amount of time, so I suggest you ask your pro...
