Eyes

Categories: Aesthetics, Anatomy, Lookism

'''Eyes''' are "one of the pair of organs of seeing in the faces of humans and animals"<ref>https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/eye</ref>

Some consider eyes the single most important trait which determines a [[Men|human male]]'s [[Beauty|attractiveness]], with some claiming it is more important than the [[lower third]]. Not everyone agree with those claims; for example, others claim other parts such as the [[Jaw is law|jaw is what is the most important in one's attractiveness]].
==Parts of the eye==
There are four [[orbital rim]]s on the [[eye socket]].
*[[Brow ridge]]
*[[Supraorbital margin]] or [[supraorbital rim]]
*[[Lateral orbital rim]]
*[[Infraorbital rim]]
*[[Medial orbital rim]]
*[[Eyebrow]]
It also includes the [[cheekbones]].
==Ideal==
The ideal eye is not [[bulging eyes|bulging]]; it appears [[deep-set eyes|deep-set]] by [[orbital rim]] protrusion (for both sexes). However, [[bulging eyes]] aren't bad if you have good bone structure surrounding the eyes. One could have, high, forward-projecting cheekbones but still bulging eyes.

[[Hooded eyes]] lack a visible upper eyelid crease. Some argue that it's an aesthetic benefit, though it probably doesn't have any significant impact.

[[Canthal tilt]] has a significant impact in male judgments of female attractiveness.<ref>Bashour, M., & Geist, C. (2007). Is medial [[canthal tilt]] a powerful cue for facial attractiveness?. Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 23(1), 52-56.</ref>
==Eye theory==
Some people, like [[Vitaly Zdorovetskiy]], have shitty [[profile]]s, but their above-average eyes make them above-average overall.
==Color and limbal ring==
A study concluded that blue eyes are objectively attractive, as per the stereotype. This is related to the fact that with blue eyes during the day the pupil is most clearly visible.<ref>https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00266-011-9793-x</ref> Also, a study concluded that color blue eyes does not increase trust [[physiognomy]].<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3541379/</ref>

2 studies show that darker and larger limbal rings around the eyes are more attractive. The study showed women actually, have a revulsion toward faces that lack limbal rings! ''Especially'' in a short term mating context.<ref>https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2018-39048-001</ref><ref>https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/147470491100900201</ref> Limbal ring thickness fades with [[Aging|age]].
