Hunter Eyes vs Prey Eyes – Can Mewing Help You Get There?
Your eyes can make or break your face! Don’t believe it? The latest research led by UC Berkeley scientists claims that the eyes can reveal whether one is a hunter or prey.
A fascinating analysis of over 214 different species of animals suggests that whether a creature’s prey or predator can be predicated by the shape of their eyes. It was found that species with vertical pupils are ambush predators and those with horizontally wide pupils are extremely likely to belong to prey species.
Similarly, in humans too, eyes make a huge impact on your facial appearance and overall personality. The internet has recently been buzzing about how some eyes resemble hunter eyes while others look like prey eyes. Let’s first learn…
How do your eyes affect your face?
A study related to individuals seeking a potential partner found that men and women consider an individual’s eyes more important than other facial features.
Facial attractiveness has been previously linked to various factors like symmetry, proportionate facial features, jawline, and so on. Also proven is the fact that facial attractiveness plays a vital role in social interactions including mating and reproduction.
What is Hunter Eyes? | Hunter Eye Meaning
Hunter eyes are basically ‘almond-shaped eyes’ that are deep-set and sit far back in the skull. Hunter eyes don’t pop out like prey eyes. The positioning of your eyes depends a lot on the orbits of your face. Orbits are socket of the skull in which the eye is situated.
Another important factor is how recessed your maxilla is, your eyes can appear more deep-set if there’s a down-swing in your maxilla. Unfortunately, facial shapes can be largely genetic. However, you can have a large eye socket, aka orbit, and still, have hunter eyes.
Let’s look at an example to understand better. This is Sean O’Pry, an American supermodel and a perfect example of what we call hunter eyes.
Hunter Eyes are straight, vertically compact, hooded, horizontally elongated, & have a positive canthal tilt. What is canthal tilt you ask? A positive canthal tilt occurs when the lateral canthus sits higher than the medial canthus as shown below.
In the above example, the eye on the right has a positive canthal tilt, whereas the one on the left has a negative canthal tilt. This leads to droopy and tired-looking eyes.
What is Prey Eyes?
As learned previously, vertically compact orbitals are essential to an attractive eye. Prey eyes root back to large orbits, the reason being- genetics, aging, or lack of midface support i.e. a recessed maxilla. Prey eyes look circular and hollow.
Hunter eyes are situated deep into the skull, whereas prey eyes are mostly exposed and bulge out.
