Eye words

Shards. Dots. Lines. Rings. Patches. Glow. And you thought eyes were blue brown and green!

Unless of course you are one of those un/lucky people blessed/cursed with "haze", "grey-green", "grey-blue", "greeny-bluey-brown" or earth eyes. Earth eyes are, in my mind, those eyes which vary between blue and green and brown, with dots. In case you were wondering.
Other than that, it's mostly self-expanatary:
Shards are angular quadrilaterals(four-sided shapes) which radiate out from the the pupil. The names comes from the fact that they look somewhat like shards of glass or gems.
Dots are dots of a different colour to the rest of the eye, almost always darker.
Lines radiate from the center of the eye, and look like lines. I know, my imagination is rather stunted.
The ring of your eye goes around edge of your iris, and is only notable when it is particularily thick, thin, or colour-other-than-grey.
A patch is a part of the iris a different colour from the rest of it. Like how a patch of fabric is different from the rest of the fabric.
Glow is the most wonderful feature of an eye. It's when the iris looks like it's glowing in the light, but looks like that even in darkness. Stunning.

I agree, I have a very, very strange mind.
