After cataract surgery my left eye is smaller than my right eye. Any suggestions? (photos)

First, I would recommend waiting for a few months to let the effects of surgery subside. You do have some ptosis of the left eyelid now which may correct itself. If it doesn't, then I would see an oculoplastic surgeon for an evaluation and treatment.

Dear tarasingh,

Thank you for your clinical post and
photographs. Although difficult to tell
precisely from the photograph it does appear there’s some degree of lid droop
or ptosis on the left side accounting for the smaller eye. The question is is this related to the
cataract laser surgery or not. At this
point as it has been more than 3 months of conservative treatment, one would
have expected normal pre-operative symmetry to return to the eyes. Because it hasn’t I would suggest a visit
with your ophthalmologist to ensure that no inadvertent trauma or damage has
occurred.

I’m sure you’ll end up with an
excellent result.
