Heavy squinting gave me zero upper eyelid exposure

Hey guys debut post
I had two retinal detachments, one in february and one in april. Both (obviously) required immediate surgical intervention so I was squinting and clamping my eyes shut like a complete retard for a long time during recovery. Now my eyebrows rest lower and closer to my eyes with almost zero upper eyelid show. It looks more hooded than before. My eye area was pretty cooked before but the amount that I had to squint was lowkey insane. Literally 24/7, or at least all my waking hours, since my pupil was dilated. Maybe squinting isn't actually cope. This isnt a new idea, but i'd like to show the difference before and after, since it isnt very common for someone to be forced to squint for 4 months in a row. Any other dudes get something similar from eye issues or chronic squinting? Did it help your eye area aesthetics or did it fuck you over? How do I know if this is actual hunter eyes ascension or just cope?

Yes ik my radix is recessed
I promise you my eyebrows are relaxed
The right eye is the surgery one

you have eyelid exposure though and the second picture you're looking down wich makes the illusion of more eyelid exposure
 
True but the difference is there, my eyes were at rest in both pictures

Genuinely all my waking hours, was forced to due to one of my pupils being dilated.
I was actually winking for a while too, which still forced both my eyebrows downwards, essentially the same effect as squinting
 
Literally been squinting my whole life because my eyesight is good enough to not need glasses but not good enough to not need to squint. I still have some upper eyelid exposure. It's just genetics

This post is more about my eyebrows' resting spot moving downward causing less upper eyelid exposure than squinting directly causing less upper eyelid exposure. Squinting->lower eyebrows->more hooded look
