As a result, the corners of the eyes are visually omitted, making the look dull. By the way, cantus can be hampered weakened, it is noticeable in terms of children's views, when the small baby's corners are omitted. This is corrected by plastic surgery, which is called cantopexy, with its help, the lowered corners rise and fall.
