Why are my eyelids different shapes? (Photo)

March 6, 2015
Asked By:sura in Little York, IN

I noticed that my eyelids are different from each other. Although it's not very noticeable in person, it is in photos. My right eyelid seems to be more open and looks like it has a double crease? While the left side is less open. Also my vision has become blurrier on the left side while the right side is crystal clear. What can I do to correct this problem? Thank you.
