Possible to Push Eyeball Back During a Blepharoplasty?

Santa Barbara7926
I had upper/lower bleph surgery done in Jan 2011. I have never had assymetry or one eye more prolific than the other. During my surgery I had some issues with blood pressure. I can recall the nurse pushing on my left lid with a lot of pressure.It now seems my eyes are slightly uneven - with the right side more open than the left. The right eye looks more "up front" than the left eye which seems a little sunken. Is it possible the doctor pushed my eye back? I don't notice any vision problems
