Does a wider nasal bridge make eyes look closer or further apart?

Question

Theoretically if you widen your nose bridge, do your eyes look closer or further apart? I recently got a top up of nose filler. I think it may have spread out a bit and made the nose bridge look wider. I can’t tell if my eyes now look closer or further apart but something looks off about my eye area which is usually very good

Randal Haworth, MD, FACS · Answer

Changing the width of your nose bridge can create an optical illusion that may affect the perception of the distance between your eyes. If you widen your nose bridge, it can create an impression of your eyes appearing relatively closer together. However, individual perceptions can vary based on facial features and overall facial harmony.

If you’re concerned about the results of your nose filler, it’s best to consult in perso. with a qualified professional.

Best of luck !

Generally, the width of somebody's nose does not affect the distance in between somebody's eyes. I understand that you have a change with injectable fillers, however, looking at before and after photos would help the experts to answer your question. Thank you. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph
