I wish the intent were not to make Miki's eyes Eurasian, but rather full on unappologetically Asian. Those that wan't to back off the effect can morph it out, but let's have a really Asian Miki default. Frankly, how would you know if she is "Eurasian" as opposed to someone who has blotted out genetic identity with surgery ? Just my opinion.

the lacrimals are a subject of intense discussion when the subject is the physical structure of the eyes in the Orient.

The structure around the lacrimal is called the epicanthic fold. I will give my personal opinion first: i think the unmodified (by surgery or makeup) eye with the fold is beautiful. My celebrity poster child for this: Sandro Oh and Lucy Liu.

I like this guy's page on it, because he just gives the facts and is not afraid to be told he is racist, which he is not.

Meanwhile, there is another aspect, namely the eyelid. The surgery to "correct" the case of little or no eyelid is called blepharoplasty. As you might expect, my opinion is that the uncut Asian eye is beautiful as is.
