Favorite Eyes!

Eyeco and Glazki are my favorite.
I love them both for their realistic effect and size options. The glazki eyes also have a great follow effect which is awesome to take pictures from different angles without having to change the gaze's direction. I'll add that both companies have a huge collection with a lot of different colours and styles. Regarding the price, Glazki eyes are the cheapest eyes I ever bought.

 

My fave eyes are a green pair from acbjd: Ariel

 

I like Captured in Glass for glass because they're inexpensive, they'll do custom work, and they have a very short wait time.

I like Eyeco and Soom for silicone because they have a lot of variety, Eyeco has smaller irises, and Soom is just so pretty!

I like Iplehouse for acrylics because they have a lot of detail and look as good or better than a lot of more expensive eyes.

I only own one pair of urethane eyes, though, so while I'd like more, I don't really have an opinion on them yet.

 

Enchanted Doll eyes are my absolute favorite. I adore urethanes in general - I just find them so pretty and they catch light very well. I'd love to get my hands on a pair of Dollflower eyes eventually, but ED are incredible for how customizable/consistent/accessible they are.

I also once owned a pair of eyes by Silver, and they were gorgeous. I wish she hadn't disappeared, because I wanted another color.

 

Oscar eyes because I like their glitter, shimmer, pearl, jewelry and when doll wear Oscar eyes, their eyes look blink blink.

 

I really like makoeyes! I have one pair and they’re so amazing in pictures also really like SucreDulce on Etsy my Switch Seolrok has a pair in and they’re beautiful!!

 

I love Oscar Doll but ChocolateHandmade is also good. I have two pairs of OD eyes. However I also have the company pair that my WithDoll Tara came with and I have to say they're gorgeous too, I don't know who makes them though so if anyone can enlighten me I would be grateful

 

I like Eyeco for price and realism.

 

Where's your favourite place to buy eyes / your dream eye makers? I know some of them are amazing and affordable and some are upwards of $50 for special pieces. I'm looking to broaden my browsing

 

Dreaming Tree Studios and BlueberryStyle are my favorites.

 

@talesfromtheshrike on instagram has made all my doll eye dreams come true

 

I really love Oscar Doll! They can be pricey, but I've never been disappointed with the quality!

And I've never bought from Lemon Jelly on Etsy, but I hope to snag a pair or two from them soon!

 

I can't go back to other eyes after these xD Artist Dolls & Accessories by SOULinaBOXdolls

 

I’ve been obsessed with Oscar Doll eyes ever since I first came across them

 

So you'd really only be able to find them secondhand since she sells primarily in person at Japanese doll shows, and it's been a while so I am not sure if she still regularly attends those, but the Japanese glass eye master Silver is my absolute fave eye maker. Her eyes are just phenomenal in terms of color, depth, and clarity. Most of my dolls have Silver eyes, and once I find the right pair, they're the only eyes they ever need. Which is good, because they start in the $80-100 range and go up from there.

I prefer high end glass eyes over urethane because they're so much more sturdy and will never yellow over time. Another brand to look out for is Hitomiya.

 

I buy eyes online. I really recommend Silent Paradise. The eyes are too gorgeous. I only buy its eyes for my dolls. My friends love Enchanted's and Nyx's eyes. Their eyes are also quite good.

 

I really like Soom and Eyeco silicone eyes. They're squishy, so they can accommodate many eye well shapes, and they come in a variety of colors. Eyeco eyes have smaller irises, so they work well for more mature dolls. They run about $13-25 a pair.

Captured in Glass is good for cheap glass eyes. The basic ones are $8.38 a pair, and the most expensive options are still only $17 a pair and they can custom make them in any color or size you want, and you can choose to have large or small irises, and if you like high dome or low, plus a few other options. Service has always been good and I got them quickly. They're not as realistic as silicone or urethane, but they have many bright colors to choose from, and they come as small as 6mm, which are excellent for a lot of tinies and pet dolls.

 

I love mako eyes! They are not as expensive as ed eyes.

 

I'm currently looking for some eye brands to look into for a doll I'm waiting on. I'd love to hear about your favorite brands and style recommendations?

Also please feel free to show off your dolls and your favorite eyes for them!!
