Common Eye Shapes
What are the common eye shapes and what do they look like? Keep reading for an overview of the 10 common eye shapes and their identifying features! For a comprehensive deep dive, check out this wikiHow article!
Almond
Almond-shaped eyes tend to be more vertically symmetrical, with even slopes on the upper and lower lids.
Round
Round eyes tend to be large, with a more circular shape at the center of the eye. The whites of the eyes are likely to be visible above or below the iris.
Monolid
Monolid eyes are defined by the lack of visible eyelid creases, and often have a more slender vertical shape. The iris tends to be bounded from top and bottom by the eyelids.
Protruding
Protruding eyes are very three-dimensional, often with noticeable eyelids and creases around the eyes. They are likely also to have protruding lower lids that accentuate the eyes further.
Downturned
Downturned eyes have a downward slope toward the outer edges of the eyes. The whites of the eyes are likely to be visible below the iris for downturned eyes.
Upturned
Upturned eyes have a higher upper lid and lower lids that curve upward to meet the upper lid. Usually, upturned eyes have no whites of the eyes above or below the iris.
Close-Set
Close-set eyes have a shorter distance between them than other types of eyes, which can serve to make a face look smaller and more compact.
Wide-Set
Wide-set eyes have more distance between them than other types of eyes, which can have the effect of making a face seem more open.
Deep-Set
Deep-set eyes are set back further into the eye socket and give the face a three-dimensionality. Like protruding eyes, deep-set eyes can make a face feel more expressive and dramatic.
Hooded
Hooded eyes are distinguished by a crease from the upper eyelids that partially covers the tops of the eyelid margins. Hooded eyes often add shadow and texture to a face.
