Between a Caucasian eye and an Asian eye, what exactly is the structural difference? Could a plastic surgeon easily transform one to the other?

In the Caucasian eye, the upper eyelid does not cover the inner corner (medial canthus) of the eye. In the Asian eye, the fold of the eyelid covers it. Wikipedia: An epicanthal fold, epicanthic fold, or epicanthus is a skin fold of the upper eyelid (from the nose to the inner side of the eyebrow) covering the inner corner (medial canthus) of the human eye. The presence of an epicanthal fold is normal in people of East Asian and Southeast Asian descent, as well as some others. Epicanthal folds may also be seen in young children of any race before the bridge of the nose begins to elevate. Yes, plastic surgeons can change it. But why? Each kind of eye has its own beauty.
