My left eye is more ‘pinched’ towards the inner corner than my right one. What procedure can i get to improve the symmetry so that my eyes match more?
Facial symmetry is normal and everybody has it.There is no treatment indicated because you don’t have an asymmetry problem.Your degree of asymmetry is very much within one standard deviation.During embryological development, the two sides of the face develop independently from each other and eventually fuse in the midline.The human brain is a custom to seeing facial asymmetry as being normal.That’s why you don’t see your friends and family as having asymmetric faces. Even great artists throughout time Heaven incorporated asymmetry into classic works of art.If you do a search for symmetrical faces and see computer generated symmetrical faces, you may notice they have an unfamiliar and strange appearance.That’s most likely because you’ve never seen a person who has a symmetrical face.You don’t need surgical intervention.Best,Mats Hagstrom MD
