Over the past year it seems the visible part of my left eyelid has increased while my right eyelid has begun to sag a great deal. If you look at a baby picture of me, the right eyelid is a bit slimmer than the right, and that's how my eyelids remained up until a year or so ago. The only thing I can think of is that I now have a job that has me in front of a computer screen all day. Advice? Looking for lifestyle and or surgical solutions.

Answer: Right-sided brow ptosis You have brow ptosis on the right side. Your right eyebrow has dropped lower than the left and this is causing the skin to hood over your right eyelid, partly obscuring it. Question is, why has this happened now, only on one side? Is there a weakness in the frontal branch of your facial nerve on the right side? When you raise your eyebrows, does the right side feel weaker than the left? If so, you will need further investigation for medical conditions that may be responsible for this and get appropriate treatment.If medical conditions have been ruled out, and the problem is purely aesthetic, then your options are some botox to elevate the brow on the right, or possibly, a right-sided brow-lift operation.

Answer: This is a normal to have some asymmetry Your picture show uneven eye brow position and not the eye lid. Your left eye brow is higher than right side. I would recommend to leave it alone. You can try Botox but it should be done by an experience injector.
