About 2 years ago, my right eye and left eye started to make cracking noises all the sudden while i was smoking marijuana and I thought "wow , i didnt know eyes could make this noise." Later on that day, I looked in the mirror and noticed my right eye got lifted upward and got bigger than my left eye.And my left eye looked like it kinda got pulled down and smaller.Im not really sure what happened but i feel very imbalanced and out of touch with myself.My life is totally gone.I cant act or feel like myself anymore , i dunno why.Since then Ive seen 4 opthamologists, 1 neuro-opthamologist with 2 mri's done, and all the doctors said they cant find anything wrong.Ive also quit marijuana 1 year ago, and noticed some improvement but i can still make my eyes crack if i tilt my head or turn my head.I have a feeling this happened because I was smoking marijuana and thinking very very hard about something and i remember it very clearly.This has really destroyed my life and nobody is able to help.

uh. . .wow. Honestly this sounds more like a somatic thing than an actual physical opthalmic one. You seem to have a lot of anxiety about it. Did you feel anxious or guilty about smoking pot? Maybe you're subconsciously punishing yourself in a weird way.
Barring growth hormone issues or a stroke, I know of nothing that would cause your eyes to change position, size, or shape. A drug certainly couldn't do it by itself. Although I believe you think you hear/heard "cracking" in your eyes, that also sounds like more of a paranoia/panic/anxiety sort of symptom.
Find a good therapist. Even if you're dealing with a real physical issue, they can help you with the feeling like your life/ real self is gone, and a really good one can suggest other possible diagnostic steps to take.
