A member asked:

One of my eyes is closer to my nose than the other. it's significant meaning if you looked it's very noticble. how common is this? what can i do

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Facial asymmetry. : Facial asymmetry is very common, perhaps even universal. In some people these asymmetries are more noticeable than in others. In your case, as the eyes are contained in bony sockets, I’d think your corrective options would be limited.
