Ok so i attached a picture of my eyes, the left eye is ALWAYS puffier and more red then the right one, does anyone know why! I went to an eye doctor and he told me to get eye drops and clean the eyelid with baby shampoo. I did those things and nothing changed at all.

I have a couple theories as to why this is, but i need help solving this, it makes me look bad and self conscious. ****

Possible causes:

  • I got a black eye 2 years ago on that eye,
  • I sleep on that side of my face.

please help! thanks!image

      I have noticed that a lot of people have one eye a little different than the other. Even myself. One of my eyes is a little bigger bigger than the other. As long as there isn't any pain or discharge, I wouldn't be concerned.

    hi

    it looks pretty normal to me too if they are dry and very irritated use eye drops daily and use an eye mask will help if your eyelids are a bit puffy
