A person may have one eye bigger than the other due to genetics, age, and lifestyle factors. In rare cases, having asymmetrical eyes may indicate an underlying medical condition.
Causes
Genetics can account for uneven eyes and other types of facial asymmetry.
As people age, the soft tissues in the face relax. Cartilage, such as that in the nose, continues to grow while the bones do not. These changes can cause asymmetry.
excessive sun exposure can change the skin around the eyes. Sun damage may affect one side of the face more than the other, leading to asymmetry.
Bell’s palsy is a type of sudden, temporary facial paralysis. It causes one side of the face to droop, affecting the smile and one eye.
Facial trauma may cause enophthalmos, or displacement of the eye. This causes people to appear as if they have a sunken eye.
Some sinus conditions can also lead to enophthalmos. These include:
chronic maxillary sinusitis
maxillary sinus tumors
silent sinus syndrome
With these conditions, changes to the eye can happen suddenly or gradually
