Shortly after I was born I was diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia of the skull which caused some asymmetry in my eyes. I don't think it has gotten any worse since then (FD is usually not progressive) and the only problems it has caused me have been the asymmetry and a large forehead. I was told to wait until my bone stops growing before doing any surgery. I am now 21 and am wondering if there is anything I can do to fix my asymmetry as it has made me very self conscious for my entire life. Thanks.
