Am I a good candidate for ptosis correction surgery? (Photos)

lilyyyys
Congenital cataract in left eye - cataract removed at age 2 but no lens implanted. This left me with amblyopia, strabismus, and ptosis in the left eye. At 17 - strabismus surgery - successful. Then, 6 months later - ptosis surgery. Now, the asymmetry is even worse. The crease is too high and my eye looks permanently swollen. It's been 4 years. Unfortunately, the ophthalmologist who performed the procedure did not want to own up to her mistake, so she refused to correct it.. Please help
