What shape eyes?

[NicciParris]

Is there a term to describe eyes that are so large that there is white showing beneath the cornea? All I can think of is droopy, saucer, puppy dog. Any other descriptions, medical or otherwise?

York - thanks for your answers.

Squad - thanks for not being a sheeple like certain other posters and reassuring me that I'm not committing crime of the century!

Sara3 - I found your petulant and schoolma'mly answer quite surprising and rather amusing. I frequent many forums but I haven't yet had cyber-whining about not acknowledging another post! I've also given a myriad of advice online before and often had no answer tailored to me but never once has it bothered me in the slightest. Just accept that many people are too busy to acknowledge everything they type and try not to get too upset about what you percieve as a breach of netiquette.

Donald P and Woofgang - No, I'm not writing a story. I just get complimented on my large eyes and wondered if there was a term for them!

Well I don't have this username on other forums.

oh right. well the majority (some of whom have posted here, but you've singled me out for your childish insults) feel it's courteous to acknowledge responses to their questions. you're not obliged though, obviously.
