My son is 18 years old and for the past couple of years I have noticed that there is a gap between his eyeball and outer corner lower eyelid. I wasn't too alarmed at first because it was just a small gap not too noticeable. I thought that it might go away as he grows however it seems to be becoming a larger gap instead. Any thoughts or answers on this? I am going to make a Dr. appointment but figured until then i could research. I have looked up vitamin deficiencies but couldn't find anything...
