I am 58, healthy and of slim build. I had an upper bleph 16 months ago, mainly to get a little more symmetry. My right eye (left as you look at my photo) was worst, and I couldn’t be happier with that eye. However, my left eye seemed to droop, and so 5 months ago I had a revision by a little more skin being taken from the inner eye (no more fat was removed). Frustratingly it’s dropped again, and not only does it look like my right eye did before surgery, it actually looks worse than my start point. I’m back to assymetry. I’m realistic and don’t expect perfection, but I do feel quite ‘Popeye’. Botox to raise my brow hasn’t worked. Do I have any options, or having already had a revision am I to accept this?

I would suggest the eyelid surgery just based only on your two photos and not exam. Your brows naturally sit low on your forehead and if raised, your looks will be significantly changed. Not everyone likes that look they never had. The blepharoplasty will look very natural once healed.
To make an interpretation, it would be very good if you could provide a full view of your face (not just around the eyes) from the opposite, right and left sides. It will be more accurate to evaluate by looking at the whole face
Your blepharoplasty is pulling down your eyebrow. Further blepharoplasty will only make this worse.
You need a browlift to restore the previous height of your eyebrows.
