Why Are my Eyes Uneven? Hypertelorism? (photo)

July 24, 2012
Asked By:JeremyE

My mom has uneven eyes too, did I get it from her? All my brothers have it too. I'm extremely self conscious about them. I have worn glasses/contacts for about 6 years. I've noticed my eyes starting to get more uneven around age 10-11. My eyes are pretty equal in strength, my right might be a bit weaker. What could have caused this? Am I using my eyes wrong? Any treatments? Is it just the shape of my skull? I heard brain tumors cause hypertelorism..!
