The primary problem is your eyelid muscle is loose and causing you to look sleepy, and the eyes don't open all the way. Correction of this will be the primary way to improve your eye area. As for your original question about the eyes being too far apart, this can be improved by raising the bridge of the nose so that there is less empty space between the eyes.

In the one photo it looks like you aren't closing 100%. We always try to keep at least 10mm of skin above the lid crease, and you appear to have even more skin than that. In the photo with the eyes open you look good - and do not look tight or over corrected. One picture may not be of you...
The combination of brow bone reduction/upper orbital bone reshaping and a browlift will go along way in feminizing the upper third of your face. It is a combined brow bine protrusion and brow ptosis issue.
Hi anayakaif,Everyone is asymmetric to some degree. Your asymmetry falls within the range of normal. Pursuing perfect symmetry is a fruitless endeavor, and will subject you to the risk of looking even more asymmetric.Best wishes,Dr. Jay
