Hi Doctors, I have taken a few pics of mine recently and I am noticing that one of my eyes is larger than the other.. Though in normal day to day life, I hadnt realised it. It is more clear iin the photos. Is there any natural or exercises I can do to make it better? I am 23 years old and would not like to do surgery.

Answer: Asymmetric eyes First off, asymmetry if very common and mild degrees of asymmetry is normal. However, if you think the appearance of your eyes are CHANGING, you should have an eye exam as it could be one of the following reasons:1- Eyelid malposition: sometimes one eyelid can droop or become retracted depending on the underlying cause 2- Globe malposition: the eye can become bulgy in certain eye conditions (eg. Graves) or retracted in other conditions (eye socket enlargement)

Answer: One Eye Bigger Than the Other? Hello, Some degree of asymmetry exists in everyone. However, if you are noticing recent or increasing changes it's best to undergo a thorough ophthalmologic assessment to rule out any underlying medical conditions. Otherwise, it is not advisable to undergo surgery to improve minor asymmetry. You can instead consider strategic injectable (BOTOX & filler) treatments that may be helpful rather than relying on exercises that are not likely to be beneficial. Warm regards, Dr. Pedy Ganchi Village Plastic Surgery

Answer: Eyelid Asymmetry Most people have some degree of asymmetry between the two eyes. Your left eye looks a little smaller than the right. This can be caused by a weakness in the muscle that opens the eye. If this is a new change or a concern. I would suggest that you consult with an oculoplastic doctor.
