Do you have Asian eyes?

I do. Don't know how my eyes changed so much since I was a baby...

I have a granddaughter whose heritage is English, Danish and Spanish. She looks more Asian than any one of those.

@Serenitree does she have a monolid?

Not really, but when her eyes are wide open she looks as if she does. She shopped in the Asian clothing stores because she's tiny and she could get adult styles in her size, and she was often assumed to be half Vietnamese. She didn't object. She is beautiful, exactly as she is.

@Serenitree people say I don't look asian. (cause I have green eyes) but I'm 100% asian.

@SW-User I love green and blue eyed Asians. The contrast and unexpectedness of it is stunning.

@Serenitree but it's weird though... none of my family members had green eyes... where did the gene came from... and isn't green eyes suppose to be the weaker gene..

@SW-User I've done some reading on the subject. Eye colour isn't nearly as simple as being inherited. The information in link is extremely simplified, but it helps to explain why genes aren't the only contributors to eye colour.
