Q: Is this assymetry related to TMJ? (pics)

My left jaw clicks and my right jaw is fine. I was wondering if this was anything to do with the assymtry of my face.
My left side seems easier to move kinda.. smiling is easier on that side, looking to the left is easier (I can see more). My teeth are ok, thr lower row of teeth kinda edge to the left slightly.
I don't know if this is anything to do with it, but my left eye is alot worse than my right, it's -4.75 whereas my right is -3.5 (power).
My left ear is aesthetically better and my right one is bigger and the skin sort of isn't full around the edge of my ear.. (I'll edit this to make it sound cleaer) I think it sits lower as well, the ear piercing lady had trouble lining up the holes to make them symmetrical.
I'm kind of wanting a name for the assymetry.. it's really been bugging me and the differnce is really big.

When I was a baby apparantly my head wasn't circular.. mum said it was noticable when she put my hair up. Also, I look like my mums side of the family but only on the right side.. the left bears no resemblance to either side of my family.
