I have noticed recently that my eyes are not quite level and this shows a lot in photos. I have lost quite a bit of fat in my body and unfortunately it shows on my face as well. Which is why I've started to notice this problem. I am aware of the uneven fat storage under my eyes, which has always been the case. There's more"deepness" under my left eye than the right eye. Maybe that is the reason one eye looks lower than the other, specially at the tear duct region?
Answer: Eyes Not Quite Level: An Illusion? ZIIISH Thank you for the photos and question. An in person consultation is necessary to come up with your best course of action. That stated, good news , your eyes are perfectly level. This is confirmed by your photo, ie. if you look at the light reflex from your photos on your cornea it is perfectly aligned. The illusion is created by loss of fatty tissue that surrounds both your upper and lower eyelids. This is a normal assymetry whcih can be improved with fillers.

Answer: Eyes not exactly the same Most people do have some amount of asymmetry in their eyes. There is a concept called big eye/small eye that was proposed. Take a look at the models in magazine ads. You will see that one of the eyes is a little bigger than the other, and these are the faces we consider most beautiful. Understand that you will never be 100% even. Now, there are things that you can do to get a little bit more pleasing appearance around your eyes. I don't think you are ready for a blepharoplasty, but your left lower lid does seem to have a little more laxity than the right. Sometimes a lateral canthopexy can fix this problem. I would likely do both eyes, as you would like to see the outside corner of the eye sitting slightly above the inside corner. You can also adjust your makeup to balance this out a bit. Fillers can give you a smoother look and help with the crease where your lower lid meets your cheek. First, I would recommend that you not worry too much about it. Secondly, should you want some improvement in your appearance, seek out a board certified plastic surgeon and have a consultation.

Answer: Why are my eyes not level? Hello,You are likely correct in your assessment that fat loss on your face and the period it's region has led to some asymmetry in the way your eyes look. Most of us are not symmetrical to start with and changes such aging and fat loss or fat gain can sometimes accentuate this. You could consider HA fillers in the year trough area and over the orbital rim to easily improve the area. Fat grafting is another option you could consider.
