The human face is formed when both sides develop in the womb and join at the center. If the growth rate of the tissues on both sides differs, an asymmetrical face results. However, facial asymmetry is usually not something that people are born with; rather, the two sides become different as they grow due to various environmental factors or habits.

Among this kind of facial asymmetry, the most noticeable part is eye asymmetry, or uneven eyes. Cases that can look uneven include:

  • different double eyelid shapes
  • different epicanthal fold shapes at the inner corners of the eyes
  • different eye positions or different outer-corner slopes

In each case, the surgical or corrective method differs, so you need to know the exact information and then proceed with correction.

If the double eyelid shape or the strength of eye opening is different

Line correction with double eyelid surgery or revision double eyelid surgery

This is one of the most noticeable cases among those that can make the eyes look uneven. If only one side has lost its crease, if the crease shapes are different, or if the strength of eye opening differs between both eyes, correction is possible through double eyelid surgery, revision double eyelid surgery, or ptosis correction surgery. It does not necessarily have to be done only by incision; in many cases, a non-incisional method may also be possible.

If the epicanthal fold shape at the inner corner of the eyes is different

Correction by adjusting the position or amount of tissue removal of the epicanthal fold with inner corner surgery

The epicanthal fold at the inner corner of the eyes often differs in shape or degree of hooding as well. By adjusting the length or position of the fold, visual symmetry can be achieved.

This is not as noticeable as uneven double eyelids, but the positions of the eye corners are often different. Usually, other people do not notice unless they pay close attention, but when you take a selfie, you often realize it stands out. Everyone has probably experienced that a face or a friend's face can look a little strange when seen in a full-length mirror.
