I have horner's eye (syndrome) due to the doctors damaging a nerve(s) during surgery about 6 years ago. One of my pupils is bigger than the other, and although my eyes are naturally green, sometimes one of my eyes appears blue. I can see fine.

I was wondering if there is any way to make it seem my eyes are the same size. I know I should be happy with the way I am, but this is pretty much my biggest peeve. If this went away, I'd be satisfied (pretty much). My mom says no one notices my eyes, but people ask me about them (I'm a sophomore if this helps).
Any suggestions? I know there isn't any surgery. It was nerve damage that caused it so it pretty much can't be fixed.

My doctor has told me I have it, and always looks at my eyes carefully because of it. I never heard of horner's eye until my nerves were damage, and they said I had it. I was in 4th grade, and went along with it.

Horner's syndrome has 3 clinical findings: miosis (pupil constriction), facial anhydrosis (no facial sweating) and ptosis (eyelid drooping). So have u been officially diagnosed w/ the syndrome? or do u just think u've that b/c of the nerve damage that caused one pupil to be bigger than the other?!

There are opaque colored contacts that would make ur eyes seem like they are the same size. You can get them from any optometrist.

don't worry about it! I know a ton of people with eye problems. My cousin has to entirely different eye colors and my friend has multicolored eyes. Look at it (lol) as a unique feature that you should think is really neat.

If it really bothers you then get contacts, but seriously lets put this in perspective. You should be thankful your eyes aren't damaged.

I wonder if they make special colored contacts that would hide the unequal pupils? Even if you don't need any correction, they could make them with no power.
