  Hi all, i'm a eurasian girl, but i have similar oriential eyes but the rest of my features are quite prominent (sharp nose, high cheekbones, full lips).
  
  Hence i think about my chinese counterparts who have oriental eyes like mine- what do they think of plastic surgery for the eyes? (double eyeslids)
  
  and what about those who have done it before- what was it like? where's the best to get it done? things like that.

  Pardon my tone but you sound quite ugly already, so why change your lone redeeming facial feature? Sharp noses are very ugly, how sharp is yours? Maybe you should spend the money on your nose instead, try to make it smaller. And make your lips smaller too. No matter what you do, people will still be able to tell that you are infected with foreign blood. So just deal with the fact that you are not one of us. Hope I wasn't too harsh.

  don't mind smallpanda.. he/she/it is the resident troll...
  
  frankly, i feel each have their own unique look... why trade it in?
  
  ultimately, it's what is inside us that makes one really beautiful or ugly... coz it comes through

  Come on now, it was a harsh but valid thing for me to say.
  No harm being honest with each other.
  
  BTW Edith, please describe your life as a half-breed in Singapore? Were you able to make friends? Were you shunned by everyone? Just curious.

  Yeah, what he said! It's not what you've got, it's how you carry the look.

  Erm.. plastic surgery doesn't solve what is the most important aspect to your unhappiness with your appearance. If you do not address why you do not like your appearance, i don't think having plastic surgery on your eyes would help.

  It's not too healthy to emphasize too much on your looks? From the way you've described yourself, I think you probably already look good enough?
  
  Nonetheless, it's not uncommon to have this done these... No personal experience to share with you.. But one thing of reminder..? If you already look good enough, sometimes additional 'feature' like this might not add to the looks..? > Just my thoughts?

  actually, it is structurally impossible to have a high-angled nose bridge and eyes that are too slit small. almond-shaped eyes are attractive too. big eyes for caucasian and indian females usually come at the price of deep-set eye sockets and prominent brow bone. so consider yourself lucky to have gotten away with that. your condition probably isn't drastic enough to warrant eyelid surgery just yet.

  just now on MRT sat opposite a JC girl who looked like that. high-angled nose bridge with tiny nostrils, high cheek bone, slim chin, fair complexion and undyed light brown hair. so i guessed she wasn't pure oriental. but the best part was her mouth wasn't as wide as most eurasians and she didn't have deep eye sockets and prominent brow bone like eurasians. lucky girl actually got away with the best of both worlds. my God! i was so dumb-founded i couldn't tear my eyes off her beautiful face one split second. not even when she glared straight back at me.

  I think you look good enough already, you should have no problem finding friends because you are a GURL. It is different for girls, plus our kind is favoured in the model industry. It is no coincidence our kind is leaving this island in droves because of lack of acceptance, many people are like Small panda i am afraid, there is much hate in the world, although not so much in Singapore, but still quite a bit none the less. Although I cannot help you with example, i can at least tell you to accept yourself, not to fall in the same depression over heritage like I do. Be happy, there is nothing wrong with your appearance.
  
  Why do you ask?

  I know of chinese girls who have opted to go for plastic surgery for double lids. It is quite common today. Just not known to many people since they do not want to tell that they have had it before.
  
  A lot of girls nowadays, oso do tattoos on their eyes that give that mascara look as well.
  
  Of those, whom I known have done, its a simple operation. The doctor will just cut both eyes and might require a stitch or two... After that, takes about a week to recover. RESULT: up to the individual, some like double eye lids. In general, most pple do.
  
  As to which doc they went... I do not know and do not want to recommend.
  
  The choice is up to you! As there's little risk involved, no problem go ahead.

  Thank you all for the replies ya..
  
  Anyway, I'm not offended by what small panda said. I know there will be people who will say certain things that are quite curt.
  
  Well, I am happy with myself.. but whenever there are close-up photos, my eyes don't give the kind of expressions i want... I'm not looking for thick double eyelids but subtle enough not to be seen but only caught on camera.
  
  sorry didn't make myself clear...

  I don't think Eurasians are accepted AT ALL. Male or female.
  Seems like the only accepted half-breeds are Malay/Chinese and Indian/Chinese.
