My Eyes Are Completely Different Size, Shape, Vision? (photo)

March 29, 2013
Asked By:Kiduproar

My left eye is dramatically smaller than my right.(see picture) I was born with a tear in the pupil of my left eye which has limited its vision. In photos with flash my left eye will reflect the light almost like a cats eye. I haven't been to a doctor about it since I was very young. I was wondering if I could get any kind of advice on going about surgery to fix the size difference at the very least. I have lots of fear making eye contact with people because they might notice size difference.
