I've not been in a relationship so far at 29 and part of it was due to being obese (lost 30 lbs last year), but another thing that's been bothering me is upper eyelid exposure, they're droopy and cover half my eyes. Look up pictures of Hamza Ahmed or droopy the dog to get an idea. A lot of my people in my family have this feature but for different reasons.
I've noticed that it makes me look tired and disinterested even when I'm not. I can get a full night of sleep and an hour later it sags down. When someone isn't making eye contact, we assume they're not interested or paying attention, but the same can be said of someone with eyes that look half closed. I think it's a very unfortunate feature that hides people's personality even when they're paying attention and listening. Even when I compliment others or ask about their aspirations, most of the time they give a negative vibe, like they think I don't care what they say or think I just want extra information about their lives.
Do you assume that someone is tired or not interested when they have this feature? I want to make myself aware of ways to fix that so I can better cultivate relationships and not come off as someone I'm not. Thank you!

I didn't know who Hamza Ahmed was, so looked it up and dont see anything wrong with his eyes. I think he is attractive.
As to your question, I would say it is an individual thing. Perhaps, but for me, I don't associate physical characteristics with body language. My perspective is that body language is more an expression of your inner self.
Congrats on the weight loss.
I looked him up also.
Nothing wrong with his eyes, which means there is nothing wrong with yours.
You seem hyperfocused on something that no one else cares about or notices.
There is a lid for every pot. I am sure there are girls who think it is cute to have "dreamy eyes."
What happens if you smile, do you still look like you are not interested? Maybe make it a habit to smile more and see what happens. A lot of people with BRF (bitc.. resting face) have found this a solution to their issue (including me).
Not sure I would classify it as a body language miscue. An upper eyelid is more of a feminizing feature because the forehead which creates the masculine brow tends to cover over it. So it would tend to detract from a man's face, typically. However its all about context. Most people have one or more of these things which is why most of us are not models.

There is a surgery that can fix those eyelids. It can interfere with your vision, so it might be considered medical as opposed to cosmetic. I know someone who did that recently and was really pleased with the impact on her vision.
Personally, I doubt I would consciously notice that someone was that way.

Have you seen an ophthalmologist about this? Usually they say insurance will pay for corrective surgery for this, since it affects your vision.
Sorry, I don't think getting your eyelids cut off is the answer.
Being hyper-focused on your eyes is going to make you appear very uncomfortable and shifty around people when making eye contact with them. Just learn to accept yourself and smile. Smiling is what makes eyes beautiful. If you carry a nervous energy, it will put women off.
