Is it possible that eyeballs can be to small for their eye sockets and is there some way to fix it?

widesmileMar 27, 2016
So I believe that my eyeballs are too small for my eye sockets because recently I have noticed that there is much loose space at my outer corners where I dont feel the eyeballs anymore. Ive always had the habit to touch and feel my eyes and I really think my eyeballs feel smaller than before. Is there some way to somehow "fill" the eyeballs, so they are bigger and there is no loose space anymore. Or some filler to make the sockets fuller.

From the image that you have provided your eyes appear symmetrical and within a normal post operative range. You have not provided a preoperative image which is required if you are truly assessing a post operative result. RegardsDr Guy Watts

If you are really bothered by your eyes (which, frankly, I think are lovely), schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss using Botox in your forehead to give a slight "lift" to your brow which will open up your eyes. This may make you feel better about how they...

Thank you for your question and photo.  Your epicanthal fold is slight and the risk of adverse scarring, following a epicanthoplasty, great, and there is no going back once this has happened.  Please think very, very carefully, before proceeding with surgery.
