Explanations of Facial Features of the Eyes and Eyelids

• Eyes slant up - when drawing a line through the inner and outer corner of the eye, the line slants up laterally
• Eyes slant down - the line slants down laterally

• Small - the iris (colored part of the eyeball) is exceptionally small in diameter, or beady
• Large - the iris is exceptionally large and partially hidden by the lids

• Close together - the eyes are especially close together, crowded to the midline relative to the whole face.
• Far apart - the eyes are especially distant from each other, closer to the temples relative to the whole face

• Deep set eyes - the eyes are especially deep in their sockets
• Protruding eyes - the eyes seemingly pop out of their sockets (a permanent condition)
