Eyelid retraction: an eyelid condition in which sclera is visible above or below the iris
Ptosis: a medical condition in which the upper eyelid is droppy. It causes a "tired" eye expression. ptosis can also be caused by a number of different things, such as disease that impairs the nerves, diabetes, injury, tumors, inflammation, or aneurysms. Congenital ptosis may be caused by a problem with nerve innervation or a weak muscle. [3]
LOWER EYE AREA
lower orbital rim: the bone right below the eyeball
negative orbital vector: term used by dr. Yaremchuck to describe a recessed lower infraorbital rim bone [1]
Under eye support: A term originated in PSL community. it refers to the prominence of the lower orbital rim. An eye are with bad "under eye support" usually has an oblique fold originating from the medial canthus. This fold is usually called tear through.
Sunken area under the eyes: The term used by plastic surgeons to refer to bad under eye support
Infraorbital rim implants: cosmetic implants inserted under the eye for the purpose of improving under eye support. They are usually combined with canthoplasty to turn "Prey eyes" into "Hunter eyes"
Lower Blepharoplasty: Another surgery aimed to reduce signs of aging: it removes under eye bags but it may cause a sunken area under the eyes

Monolid: East asian eyes. there is a specific surgery to make asians achieve caucasian eyes.
Upper Blepharoplasty: During the aging process some people lose upper eyelid fat, thus they increase UEE while getting old, meanwhile other people get more hooded eyes because brow skin becomes very loose and saggy. Upper blepharoplasty is a surgery which aims to reduce excessive eye hooding, however it has been argued that upper blepharoplasy is unnecessary because hooded eyes usually look good
