What Surgery Will Fix my Asymmetrical Eye Shape?

June 29, 2010
Asked By:Tashanta in Newyork

So as you can see clearly in the picture, my left eye is way smaller and is more closed than my right eye. The shapes of the lower eyelids are very different. I realize that slight asymmetry is normal in the eyes, but mine is beyond slight. This really bothers me and limits my social interactions. I'd like to know if ANY plastic surgeon could fix this, and if so what is the surgery called? or if I need to find a SPECIALIST? Please I really need good feedback. Thank you!
