Asymmetrical eyes/1 eye higher/lower than the other - what procedures can treat this? (Photo)

Question

Updated: One of my eyes are lower than the other and I think it's noticeable. it's very noticeable when i flip pictures and i start to notice it in the mirror. What procedures can be done?

C. Blake Perry, MD · Answer

You have ptosis (drooping) of the right upper lid making the eyes look asymmetric. Typically surgery can be performed to tighten the muscle of the eyelid, raising the lid, and restoring symmetry. It is important to see an eyelid expert to determine the cause of the ptosis.

Eric M. Joseph, MD · Answer

Ptosis is a condition where an eyelid can be droopy. This may be repaired with surgery. My suggestion would be to meet with several reputable oculoplastic specialists who are expert at ptosis repair. I hope that this helps and thank you for your question. Sincerely, Dr Joseph
