canthopexy with good surgeon
 
I have heard people say different things, some saying that you should only get canthopexy if your issue is scleral show and not if you want a true radical canthal tilt change. I have no idea, people say all kinds of things about it. I need to speak to some surgeons about it.

thats what i thought, and everybody says different things
 
It depends on how bad is your eye area if you have a good eye area with a negative canthal tilt and canthopexy can fix it
 
if your tilt is negative you need a canthoplasty but it rarely looks good

if your tilt is neutral-slightly negative and the lower lid laxity is droopy then you can do a canthopexy to tighten it up

canthoplasty is more invasive, I guess it comes down to how bad your tilt is

Apparently you can do a physical test to see if canthopexy is good solution or not. But i wouldnt generally get canthoplasty
