Answer: Smaller eye after viral infection It appears as though your right upper lid is droopy. We call that 'blepharoptosis' or just 'ptosis.' There are a number of causes of this condition. You should visit with an ophthalmologist to determine which cause it might be. If no underlying problem is identified and you were my patient, I would suggest you wait a year from the time it drooped to see if it recovers before surgically lifting it.

Answer: Asymmetry, right eye smaller than left It appears from your photograph that you have ptosis on the right. An examination by an oculoplastic surgeon can confirm a diagnosis and give you some solid information about treatment. You are a handsome man - drooping of your lid causes a sleepy look - not disgusting. This can be repaired with outpatient surgery, minimal down time - bruising maybe, but no pain. See an experienced oculoplastic surgeon who will be able to provide good results for you. Best wishes.
