Ögonformer

Ögonformer, or eye shapes, refer to the characteristic contours and proportions of the human eye and the surrounding eyelid structure. These variations are natural and contribute to individual facial aesthetics. Common classifications for eye shapes include almond, round, hooded, downturned, and upturned. Almond-shaped eyes are characterized by a slight upward tilt at the outer corners and a more elongated, almond-like appearance. Round eyes have a more circular shape with visible sclera above and below the iris. Hooded eyes feature a prominent fold of skin from the brow bone that partially covers the eyelid crease. Downturned eyes have outer corners that droop lower than the inner corners, while upturned eyes have outer corners that are higher than the inner corners.

The perceived eye shape can be influenced by various factors, including genetics, bone structure, and the thickness of the skin and fat around the eye. Understanding different eye shapes is often relevant in fields such as makeup artistry, where techniques are tailored to enhance or alter the appearance of specific eye shapes. It is also a topic of interest in personal style and aesthetic discussions. The categorization of eye shapes is a descriptive tool and does not imply any hierarchy or judgment of beauty. Each shape is a natural variation of human facial features.
