What does eye area mean?
The eye area is the region containing the eyes, eyelids, brows, inner and outer eye corners, and under-eye tissue.
Quick answer
Eye area names a region, not a single eye shape. Spacing, eyelid opening, brow position and canthal tilt describe different parts of it.
Eyes is a feature category in Lookmax Analyzer. The everyday term eye area also includes surrounding features beyond one measurement.

Meaning
The canthi are the inner and outer corners where the eyelids meet. Canthal tilt describes the angle between those corners; eyelid exposure describes visible lid area.
The orbital region is the area around the eye sockets. Under-eye tissue and brows frame the eyes, but are distinct from the eyes themselves.

Common misconceptions
Eye area means eye color.
Eye color is one characteristic of the eyes; eye area refers to the wider region around them.
Canthal tilt and eyebrow tilt are the same.
Canthal tilt follows the eye corners; eyebrow tilt follows the brow. They use different landmarks.
