Righ eye smaller than left eye

2017-08-25 10:05:59
My right eye looks smaller than left eye. This has been since my childhood. Due to this, right eye looks little droopy. Attached an image. Is there any surgery to make the right eyelid open a little similar to the left eyelid.

There are surgeries to improve lid droop. In your case apparently it isn't much. You can still have a consult for proper assessment
