I would rather speak of eye traits.
Typical classic Europid traits are a straight or external downward going eyes (upward, slanted eyes being untypical), a very open eye or one with a medium or external, never internal eyefold (epicanthus).
Wide, rather higher-rounder orbits, more common among Aurignacoid/Nordid-Suedeuropid, small, rectangular orbits, more common among Cromagnoid and derivative types.
Eyeballs and eyes being not too big or forward positioned, so Basedowoid eyes are less common than f.e. among Negroids and even if present, they are usually still deeper set than in those, both because of the forehead and the cheekbones too.
Position of the eye is rather deep, also because of the compressed, backward positioned cheekbones - a trait more pronounced in Nordid-Suedeuropid/Aurignacoid than Cromagnoid.
Eyes being close to each other, small intraorbital distance to medium one etc.
Sum it up, you get some typical eye forms and those which are not typical.



How would heavy weight, excess skin, and nasal index affect eye shape? By that I mean, some people seem to have more "excess skin" and if they have a low nasal bridge(or even if it is high) that skin tends to be more present around the eyes causing a semblance of folds and it could change the shape. The same thing with weight. It is hard for me to explain. I tend to notice it more in aged people.


Agrippa could you classify my type?

What you mean is not primarily related to body weight, though it can be to a certain degree, but more to the kind of eyefolds common in Europid variants, namely median and external.
Quite often weak median or extrenal folds get heavier in age and can hang much lower, even pseudo-Mongoliform, but usually then the exact opposite of Mongoloids is true, namely the internal part of the eye being free.
More pictures could help, but my first impression is that its an average Europid eye with a medien eyefold and somewhat lower orbita. Nothing really specific so to say for a racial specification. Fold might get stronger in age, though I can't say for sure.Originally Posted by Reinhard


From my own observation downturned eyes seem more common in the southern parts of of Western and Central Europe, while straight and even sometimes upward, slanted eyes more common in Northerners(Scandinavians and Finns) and North East Europeans.

Thats true, but its usually related to other deviating traits we might call "Uralic" and its not a trait common in classic Europids. All basic Nordeuropids have straight or downturned eyes, Nordid and Dalofaelid, usually Alpinoids and Borreby variants too, even most Westbaltid and Baltid proper. Its usually more common among Lappid, Eastbaltid and generally Mongoloid (especially Tungo-Sibirid) influenced people.
Some studies say externally upward going eyes, at least if its just slight, being more attractive in females, ("cats eyes") and vice versa for downturned ones. In males there might be no or the opposite effect I guess. It seems that most progressive and rather mature racial forms, especially those which are more masculine, tend to have straight or down going eyes, especially among Europids.

You have a rather assymmetric external fold already, this is more common among Cromagnoids, but common among most Europid populations and types in at least a lower percentage.


^ Quite typical brown male eyes.
