Left eye appears smaller
I had a stye a few months ago and after it disappeared it left my left lower eyelid swollen causing my left eye to appear a little smaller than the right. I frequently get these styes and it leaves my whole eye swollen but it gets normal after a day or two but this time it left my eye in this condition.
