My Right Eye is Lower Than my Left. How Can Symmetry Be Improved? (photo)

Your pictures clearly demonstrate asymmetry of your underlying facial bones. Your right cheekbone is flattened and your inferior orbital rim is inferiorly displaced. This type of rotational malposition is frequently encountered following cheekbone fractures. This boney deformity has also caused inferior bowing of the right lower lateral eyelid.Although, it's difficult to make treatment recommendations without a physical examination, procedures designed to disguise the underlying boney deformity may be appropriate. In some cases, a lateral canthopexy might elevate the lateral corner of the eye and improve the overall aesthetic appearance.If you're concerned about the appearance of your eyes, it's appropriate to consult a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this area. This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your anatomic findings and achieves your aesthetic goals.

It appears from the picture as though the outside corner of your right eye (otherwise known as the lateral canthus) is slightly lower than that of the left eye. This is what's causing the asymmetry.

The issue can be quite simply addressed by releasing the attachments in this location and relocating the lateral canthus in a higher, more elevated position by means of subcutaneous suture techniques.

In this way, the fibrous tissue of the lateral canthus is fixed to the bone and the soft tissue attached to the bone (periosteum) in a more desirable position.

This simple procedure is known as a canthopexy.
