Eye size is not only diameter
- Anime eyes can look larger because the iris fills more of the visible area.
- Small-iris eyes can make the same diameter look more realistic.
- Deep eye wells may need putty or a different backing method.
Bundle eyes with the fullset
- Eye color should be checked with the wig and outfit palette.
- Ask for seller photos if the listing color looks heavily edited.
- Keep one fallback pair if the first option is out of stock.

FAQ
Fast answers before ordering.
What size eyes does a 1/4 BJD use?
Many 1/4 BJDs use 14-16mm eyes, but sculpt recommendation and eye shape matter more than scale alone.
Are glass BJD eyes better than resin eyes?
Glass eyes often look crisp and reflective. Resin eyes can offer stylized colors and effects. Fit and style matter more than material alone.
Can I use 20mm eyes in a smaller doll?
Only if the sculpt is designed for large stylized eyes. Otherwise they may not sit correctly.
