Yes: If one eyelid is droopy, that is a condition called ptosis. It can be corrected as a stand-alone procedure without having to have any surgery on the other eye. Consult with good, experienced plastic surgeon or an oculoplastic surgeon. Be well.

Rare: It is rare to fix one eye unless you have ptosis. If only one eye droops see an oculoplastic surgeon for repair.

Droopy eyelid: There are several causes of a droopy eyelid. Your best bet would be to have your eyes evaluated by a board certified facial plastic surgeon.
