Is There a Surgery to Make Your Eyes Smaller?

Eyes can appear big either because the eyes are bulgy (proptosis) or the eyelids are retracted.  Depending on the problem, solutions may be available.  See an oculoplastic surgeon.

Hi

 

I agree with other posters. It's very important to make sure tht you do not have an underlying medical condition

 

OOnce your health is certain I would guess that you could get a very soft and natural result with fillers. I usually use a combination of the patients own fat and some commercial fillers like juvederm

 

Nothing replaces an in-person exam so take the extra step of seeing a qualified provider

 

The protruding eyes can be a sign of underlying condition like thyroid problems. You should see your doctor to make sure you don't have any such health problem.

Having said that, the bulging or protruding eyes can be made less protruding by opening up the walls of the eye socket. The best person to help you with that would be an Oculoplastic Surgeon. You should however weigh the risks and benefits of such a major surgery for cosmetic reasons alone.

Some patient especially those with thyroid disease do not have enough orbital volume to maintain proper aesthetics for their enlarged structures and sometimes can undergo controlled orbital expansion techniques. It is best to see a craniofacial surgeon for this.

There are cosmetic surgical procedures which can make the eyelid opening more narrow and eye appear smaller.  However, if ones eyes appear prominent, or bug-eyed, this may be due to a medical condition such as hyperthyroidism or Graves' disease.  Before any surgery you should be evaluated by your doctor and make certain that this is not a medical problem.  Best wishes.
