A member asked:

What could be wrong if my left side eyeball is slighty higher than my right eye? what causes hypertropia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Eye lid: you may be noticing a drooping lid on one side or a lid retraction on the other side, both have different meanings and need to be first evakuated by an ophthalmologist.
