What is the diffrence? The tilt on my right eye is good. I want to just slightly lift the outer left eye to match the right. I also want to lift the lower eyelid in both eyes. So what procedure should i choose

Canthopexies tend to fail with time so generally not recommended for young people. Canthoplasty might be a better option if you have severe asymmetry.

To lift the lower eyelids you can get eyelid retraction surgery (sort of a face lift for midface tissues to provide better under eye support), with or without infraorbital rim implants depending on your case.
 
no respectable surgeon will do cantoplasty on you if you are not over 70
