I noticed the other day that in photos my eye is smaller than the other. I never had this before, not to this extent anyway. It's quite noticeable. It's drastically effected my self esteem since I used to think I had nice eyes, and now they have become a source of insecurity. What could this be from? And are there any alternatives to surgery?

Answer: You have right upper eye lid ptosis , There is also a compensatory brow elevation. The solution for this would be upper eye ptosis surgery. I recommend getting yourself assessed by an oculoplastic surgeon.

Answer: Fixing Droopy Eyelids #Ptosis #Eyelift Hi @Wasithea: Droopy eyelids also known as eyelid ptosis result is caused by stretching of the eyelid muscle tendon AKA tarsoligamentous laxity. This can lead to the appearance of one eye looking smaller than the other and is easily fixed by tightening the tendon. Ptosis repair surgery is often covered by insurance and if you have a droopy eyelid in addition to excess upper eyelid skin both of these need to be corrected at the same time with a Ptosis Repair & Simultaneous Blepharoplasty.
