Introduction:
Hello everyone! Org3cel here with a simple yet useful guide regarding the sclera, an underrated factor of our appearance.
If you desire to look better please read!
Have you ever walked down the street and noticed someone’s eyes just standing out dramatically?
You think about it logically their eyelashes weren’t extraordinary, their eyes weren’t unusually bright so what was it?
Most likely, it was their sclera. Sclera brightness is one of the lesser-known aspects of appearance, which is why I’m making this thread. It’s so influential it can make or break a look.
Autism part:
What is sclera?
The sclera is the white, tough outer layer of the eye that provides protection and structural support, as you can see from the picture.
How should our sclera look like as a looksmaxxer?
This is a representative stimulus images of a young adult female. Sclera were either unmodified ( top left ), reddened ( top right ), yellowed ( bottom left ), or whitened ( bottom right ). Digitally colored images ( red , yellow , or white ) were contrasted with unmodified control images. Our goal is to obtain a super white sclera, (bottom right)
Why does this matter and how does it affect our looks?
Sample size, number of female participants (F), mean (M), and standard deviation (SD) for experimental and control images, and the F values for contrasts.
Individuals with red and yellow sclera were rated as significantly less healthy, less attractive, and older than those with untinted, control sclera. Individuals with super-white sclera were rated as significantly younger but not more healthy or attractive than those with untinted control sclera.
Note that a healthy sclera and a super white one have little differences, but a discoloured sclera will lower your rating even further, just like hair, its not a plus, its life itself.
We can conclude that scleral color is a cue of socially significant information about health, attractiveness, and age like said in the study:
Red, yellow, and super-white sclera : uniquely human cues for healthiness, attractiveness, and age - PubMed
The sclera, the eye's tough outer layer, is, among primates, white only in humans, providing the ground necessary for the display of colors that vary in health and disease. The current study evaluates scleral color as a cue of socially significant information about health, attractiveness, and...

Therefore obtaining a super white sclera will make u look, Younger, and slightly Healthier and More attractive.
Quick funny fact:
The blue-eyes stereotype: do eye color, pupil diameter, and scleral color affect attractiveness? - PubMed
The data showed that the "blue-eyes stereotype" does exist. People consider blue eyes attractive, but in reality, blue is rated as attractive as other iridal colors. Bright scleral color and large pupils positively affect attractiveness because both features are significantly correlated with...

Scientific explanation:
What are the reasons behind the discoloration of the scleras?
1-Usage of drugs or vaping:

2-Lack of sleep
Sleep and Eye Health: How Lack of Sleep Affects Your Eyes
With the time change, many people are feeling more sleep-deprived than usual. Here's how lack of sleep can affect your eye health in surprising ways.

Dry eyes,red eyes and much more, but I only focused on the ones that can and will affect the scleras appearance.
Therefore its a must you sleep properly.
3-Jaundice
Jaundice happens when the liver can’t properly break down and clear bilirubin, a yellow pigment produced when red blood cells are recycled. If the liver is damaged or overwhelmed, bilirubin builds up in the bloodstream and deposits in the skin and sclera, giving them a yellow tint.

3-Stay properly hydrated
Adequate hydration improves tear film stability, reducing dryness and redness.
4-Excessive screen time
Causes dryness, irritation, and vascular dilation, making the sclera look red or yellowish.
Follow the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Use artificial tears if eyes feel dry.
5-Nutrient deficiencies
Affect eye moisture, antioxidant defense, and vessel integrity.
Include omega-3, vitamin A, vitamin C in your diet.
Now that we are done explaining the basics, lets get to the real deal, what really works!
Final solution:
Eye drops, quick frauding and a sustainable solution:
Eye drops may seem simple, but they can be dangerous if not used carefully.
For important events and special occasions:
Lumify eye drops
They contain an active ingredient called Brimonidine tartrate
which can whiten your eyes up to 120% more and lasts about 8 hours. However, they may cause increased redness the following night. These eye drops are specifically made for people with red scleras. If lifestyle changes don’t help reduce the redness, these drops can be effective. However, be cautious not to overuse them, as long-term use can be harmful to your eyes.
Therefore, it’s best to reserve them for special occasions.
For daily use and maintaining a healthy sclera, traditional eye drops are preferable for relief.
Any brand of the following will do you right.
Talking from my experience, the latter one is the best. With the main side effect being that they make the eyes watery for a while.
They don’t cause rebound redness and help keep your eyes looking whiter than baseline throughout the day.

For the lightcels, your sclera will look as white as your background after reading this!
TLDR:
Maintain healthy habits
Use eye drops
Love yall! Hope this can reach BOTB!
