Why is my right eye higher than my left? (Photo)

May 5, 2017
Asked By:cbottieri in Omaha, NE

My eyes used to be even, but in the last fiveish years (I am 25) they have slowly become uneven. This bothers me a lot because I love makeup and face painting but I feel extremely self conscious taking front facing photos of my work with the ridiculous amount of asymmetry. I am really worried that it will continue to get worse. What is causing the asymmetry? Can anything be done to correct this?
