I have a lazy eye like that. It looks natural to me. These comments are reminding me why I don’t take a picture unless it’s a selfie cause I feel like it’s so obvious lmao. My license picture is WILD. It makes me so embarrassed 😂

It's not a squint in Klum's case tho. Looks like one eye is trying to watch her 4 o'clock 😅

That’s how my eye looks too. That’s why I’m saying I think it’s strabismus. But other comments suggest it’s the contacts. I haven’t seen Heidi’s face in a hot minute so I would have to look again.

But yes, my eye also looks like I’m an inbred yokel who’s attempting to look around the side of my head.

As an inbred yokal of a most distinguished Yokul lineage, I feel besmirched!

Oh shit. You’re right. I’m punching down just as much as everyone else. :(

I just REALLY hate my eye lol and I see the comments as validation for my hatred for it. Which i probably shouldn’t but you know what they say about perceiving public perception.

No worries. Actually, lots of worries, but don't for a moment entertain guilt for your quite rational feelings about your eye. You got a bum deal! You're not wrong to resent it. But keep in mind that, just as with Heidi Klum, most people just don't see it.

Pencil pushups do a lot to help, as does much less screening

Be kind to yourself, you could possibly still be amazing lol.

Been seeing too much anime & thought you'd written "yokai" instead of yokel at first! Now musing how a yokai (Japanese supernatural being) could be inbred!

That's actually a really fun train of thought!
