Hello, sir yes there is little bit of asymmetry is visible it could be due to ptosis too, unable to open lid completely in left eye. Most common cause is temporary (bell's) facial nerve palsy if you got this recently. To make sure please visit a ophthalmologist (for only eye related problem) or a Ent specialist (for facial nerve related problem).
