Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Dear patient thank you for your question.
Yes there are surgical procedure involving prosthesis which can be done to improve the deformity of your toes.
However the fact that your toes will look absolutely normal is highly unlikely.
Also in most cases it is a very expensive surgery
I cannot tell you if you qualify for the surgery as some of the factors that determine the success of the surgery are
Age
Extent of the deformity
Medical history
Physical condition
Rigidity or flexibility of the toe.

Thus whether you qualify for surgery will be told to you by the orthopedic surgeon you see

All the very best
