Are uneven eyes caused by staying up late?

Many people wonder why they have uneven eyes and are wondering if it is caused by staying up late? In fact, uneven eyes are not caused by staying up late, nor are they eye diseases. They are caused by the accumulation of eye fat or uneven strength of the eyelid lifting muscles. Unequal eyes can be improved, and severe unequal eyes can be adjusted through surgery. There are some ways to improve the unevenness of the eyes. Here are some methods that you can try.

Generally, there are two reasons for uneven eyes: one is that the eyes are uneven due to fat pushing, and the other is that the eyes are uneven due to the uneven strength of the levator muscle of the upper eyelid.

1. Double eyelid surgery can improve the uneven eyes caused by fat pushing

In this case, small eyes are usually caused by excessive fat pushing on single eyelids or uneven width of double eyelid folds. In this case, you only need to do double eyelid surgery to remove excess fat or skin to make the two sides symmetrical. In order to maintain the surgical effect for a longer period of time, it is recommended to use the complete resection method.

2. Uneven strength of the upper eyelid levator muscles causes uneven eyes, which can be improved through ptosis surgery

This situation is relatively troublesome. Double eyelid surgery alone cannot solve the problem of uneven eyes. It is also necessary to shorten or remove part of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle tissue or tendon tissue to strengthen the eyelid lifting function, so as to improve the uneven eyes. Alternatively, fascia, sutures or silicone tubes can be used to perform forehead suture and suspension surgery to connect the levator palpebrae superioris muscle and the frontalis muscle, and use the power of the frontalis muscle to lift the drooping eyelid.

Ptosis can be corrected surgically whether it is unilateral or bilateral, but patients need to understand that if the surgery requires absolutely identical results for both eyes, it is unrealistic and difficult for doctors to achieve. Since ptosis involves the strength of your eye-lifting muscles, the affected eye and the normal eye may have problems such as uneven eyes or incomplete eye closure right after the surgery. They will gradually return to normal in about half a year.

1. Method 1 for correcting uneven eyes: Open the eyes

To correct uneven eyes, you can do canthoplasty. Choose a large eye as a reference and design the appropriate canthoplasty incision and plan. For those with severe epicanthus, you can do canthoplasty to remove the Mongolian folds at the corners of the eyes. For those with shorter eyes, you can choose to open the outer corners of the eyes to lengthen the curvature of the palpebral fissure.

2. Method 2 for correcting uneven eyes: Double eyelids

Double eyelid surgery is performed by making an incision on the upper eyelid to remove loose skin, orbicularis oculi muscle and hypertrophic fat, and then suturing to form a double eyelid. Double eyelids can visually enlarge the eyes and improve the problem of uneven eyes.

3. Method 3 for correcting uneven eyes: double eyelids + canthus opening

If double eyelid surgery or canthoplasty alone cannot correct the size of your eyes, you can undergo comprehensive eye plastic surgery. Shenzhen Feifan experts can design a comprehensive canthoplasty and double eyelid surgery plan based on your facial features and the golden aesthetic ratio of the eyes. This will make your two eyes the right size, correct the size of your eyes, and achieve the perfect effect of beautifying the eye shape.

4. Correction method 4: ptosis correction

Another reason for uneven eyes is ptosis. For this kind of problem, ptosis correction can be done. The surgical method is to remove excess skin, or take a small piece of fascia lata on the thigh to connect it with the frontalis muscle and upper eyelid, and use the frontalis muscle to strengthen the levator palpebrae superioris muscle to achieve the effect of correcting uneven eyes.
