Asymmetrical eyes/eyelids - is there any way I can fix them? (Photo)

Question

My eyes are very asymmetrical, and it has been bothering me for about two weeks now. Is there any way I can fix them?

However, you also have a crease problem. This is likely ptosis caused by central levator disinsertion. You have minimal left compensatory brow elevation. You need  a detailed oculoplastic surgery consultation to determine if there is levator pathology also on the right side. Herring's law ptosis would be a fall in the upper eyelid position of the other eyelid after fixing the obviously heavy eyelid. In addition to the repair of the ptosis, you also need your crease fixed. I strongly suspect you will benefit from bilateral repair of the upper eyelid to fix both creases. What you need is ultraconservative double fold surgery with repair of the levator tendon disinsertion, low set anchor blepharoplasty and reconstruction of the upper eyelid fold. It is fussy surgery. Choose your surgeon wisely.

This seem to be very delicate issue and you should address this problem with a board certified plastic or Oculoplastic surgeon with expertise in Asian blepharoplasty. Good luck.

All people have facial asymmetry. Unless the asymmetry is significant enough to be noticeable by other people, it’s probably better to leave it alone. A surgical attempt at correcting This will just leave you with a different form of asymmetry Unless the asymmetry is significant enough to be noticeable by other people, it’s probably better to leave it alone.
