You need to see an Eye MD physician-ophthalmologist to determine if the problem is in the eye, the eyelid, or the eye socket (orbit). Depending on the causes it may be possible to improve the appearance, but making a diagnosis is the most important first step to take.
You can find an ophthalmologist in your area at www.aao.org When you go in take a couple of full face close up pictures of you taken 2-4 years ago so the eye MD will have something to compare your appearance with.
