Are my eyes too close together than average? (Photo)

Question

I want to hear from a doctors point of view (because iv asked about every family i HAVE) are my eyes close together? or are they average/normal.

Ask yourself how much time you spend thinking about this issue.  If you find yourself thinking about this for more than about an hour a day, avoid social situations, or suspect that people are making comments about your eyes behind your back, you may be suffering from a psychological condition called body dysmorphic disorder.  The solution is not surgery.  The solution is to work with a psychologist or psychiatrist to help you gain insight into how your brain processes your appearance.

I think the appearance of your eyes are normal and look nice. This is great news because it is not something that can be easily adjusted with surgery. Therefore it would not be recommended.

Ronald J. Edelson, MD · Answer

Your eyes are not too close and they look absolutely beautiful.  Don't consider having any surgery at this point in your life.

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

I do not think that your eyes are too close together.  I would say they are perfectly normal and very nice.

Curtis Wong, MD · Answer

You look very attractive and there is no procedure that can place your eyes further apart.  Embrace the serenity prayer and accept the things you cannot change, especially if it has no real detrimental impact on you (and your eyes do not) and spend your emotional energy on the other things in life that are truly challenging.  Live life... and if you're as Dr. Steinsapir describes, seek the help you need.

Thank you for your question.  In my opinion Your eyes are not close together. Your eyes look normal and beautiful.

Chris Thiagarajah, MD · Answer

Your eyes look completely normal. I would not have any surgery especially if you are under 18. Again, totally normal and surgery is unncessary.
