I'm only 15 and my eyes are uneven. when i take a picture my right eye is farther up then my left one. What can I do? (photo)

Hi John

Your photo is quite helpful, and I agree with your assessment. It is unlikely that without any intervention, things will even out.

But first things first: you need to get an evaluation by an Oculoplastics and Orbital surgeon.

In Ohio, there are some excellent Oculoplastics/Orbital surgeons. Two that come to mind are Dr Jeff Nerad and Dr. Jill Foster.



I would recommend consultation with an ASOPRS trained Oculoplastics surgeon. You can find one close to you on the ASOPRS dot org website, but the two mentioned above would be at the top of my list.

Good luck

Hi John,

It appears that you have uneven orbits (bony eye sockets) which result in uneven eyes. It could be congenital (born with) or developmental (after birth).  You should consult an orbital surgeon (or oculoplastic surgeon).

 

  Hello.  And thank you for submitting the photo with your question.  It is most helpful.

  I agree with you.  I do think the eyes appear uneven, although it is my guess that this is more noticed by you than by anyone else.  However, without seeing you in person, taking a history, and doing additional tests, it is hard to give good advice about the best treatment for you. You might want to see a doctor from the ASOPRS website for the best advice for this condition.  Good luck.
