Why are my eyes two different sizes? (Photo)

December 2, 2015
Asked By:sul6any in Southgate, MI

I noticed that my eyes are two different sizes. I noticed this problem waking up in the morning. It becomes obvious in the morning that one eye is bigger , sometimes red in the morning. Let me tell you how I sleep maybe this can help, I sleep on my soltomach and half my face is squashed in the pillow so I use one eye when using my phone. Sometime I find myself closing one eye (the one in pillow). The redness in the morning is in the eye I use in bedtime. It is the smaller eye in picture.

Lily Lee, MD says:

I agree with your assessment even though the photo is very close up. Adding volume to the area is the answer, but I understand your concern about the very small risk of intra-arterial penetration causing blindness - which can happen no matter the material placed, fat or hyaluronic acid...
