The palpebral fissure is the opening between the eyelids.[1] Looksmaxxing rates shape (almond vs round), length (canthus to canthus), and height (how much eye shows). Hunter eyes want a longer, shorter, tilted fissure; prey eyes a rounder, taller one. Canthal tilt is the angle of this opening. Ptosis, hooding, and upper eyelid exposure change height without changing bone.
