Do I have a lazy eye?

My right eye looks particularly lazy in various pictures that have been taken of me. However, no one has mentioned this to me, so maybe it isn't as bad as I think it looks. My eye causes my whole face to look unusual. Please excuse the razorburn in the pic. I'm being serious and this image is NOT edited except to 1024x768 from the original 5MP size.

I have had a glass eye for 28 years and something tells me it is probably a lot lazier than yours. I would not worry about it. Never stopped me from getting girls.

Everyone likes my hair longer too. I was skinhead not too many months ago. I had the sides trimmed up last week, but left the front the way it was. Probably going to grow it out, even though it annoys the piss out of me.

I noticed it the first time I looked at the picture, or at least I thought I did. I opened it again and couldn't tell, so I wouldn't stress out about it. I'd concentrate more on personal successes, personality and how you treat others. That will boost your apperance (I'm including non-physical here obviously) to others far more than any minor tweaks you can do to your face, imo.

Other than that, learn how to shave ;)

Do you wear contacts or glasses? Maybe you're inadvertently squinting/straining. Maybe your right eye is overcompensating for the other.

And they let you drive with one good eye? Didnt know that was possible.

Are you serious? I probably have better depth perception (acquired) then most people with two eyes.

Dude that is nothing compared to mine, although mine only happens when I'm really tired. It really freaks people out sometimes, it is kind of funny.

My dad has had only one good eye since he was a kid. The only restriction on his driving is that he could only get a class B racing license

I know someone who had a lazy eye for a long time. She had a surgery (cutting some loose muscle tissues around the eyeballs) and she's normal now.

I dunno, but you look like a young Giovanni Ribisi.

I second the growing your hair out idea.

A LOT of people have lazy eye. People jsut don't notice it very much. Honestly, a lot of you should go stare at the mirror for some good time. It's quite obvious when you take a little time to examine. For some people, it's more obvious than others.

The OP has it more obvious, but I can bet a lot of other people have some case of minor lazy eye. It's just so small that it's not an issue. That said, it can get worse.
