Why does one eye slant down and have weak bone projection? (Photo)

Dear twentytwo22,

It is very common to have asymmetries between one side of the
face and the other. When it comes to the
eyes, these are particularly more apparent, as it is the central facial
structure that one communicates with the rest of the world. When there is asymmetry of the medial canthus
that is significant, sometimes aesthetic reconstructive surgery with a medial
canthal repositioning may be necessary.
These procedure can be performed locally through small incisions in the
inner aspect of the eye or through lowering a forehead flap from above and
repositioning the medial canthal tendon.
This is a very specialized area of aesthetic plastic surgery and I would
seek out a craniofacial expert with experience in medial canthal repositioning
into the lateral wall of the orbit. Dr.
Oley Antonyshyn of Sunnybrook Hospital is the Chief of Craniofacial Plastic
Surgery and has a tremendous amount of experience doing this.

When seeking eye canthal repositioning, it is very important
to carefully select your physician based on experience and understanding of the
risks and recovery and potential benefits involved.

Sometimes the best decision is to leave asymmetry alone, but
when asymmetry is quite noticeable, medial canthal repositioning can be a good
solution.

I hope this information has been of some assistance and best
of luck.

Sincerely,
