I remember being self conscious about my eyes since I've been a toddler! I always had uneven eyes and so does my father which shows that this is not a disease or health issue, just a characteristic passed on by a parent. I am looking for a way to fix this and am wondering what I need to do. I am 18 and fairly tired of this issue. I would prefer if there was an alternative to surgery (which I would prefer not to have). I am not wearing any eye makeup (to show how they really look). Please help :/
