Please see the attached picture. I have a ridiculous amount of upper eyelid exposure and the crease is not symmetrical. 1) Is it possible to bring my crease down and reduce the upper eyelid exposure via surgery? 2) Do I have ptosis? 3) Do I have what's called an "innie" eyelid? 4) Is lateral canthoplasty an option for me if I want to elongate my eyes? What procedures would you recommend? My goal is elongated eyes, bring crease down
