Yes ,the foreigner thought so, but in fact they are the small eye and the big eye ..;) Migo, I would like to correct your sentence : " Do foreigners think that Chinese have small eyes?" I personally saw many Chinese with big beautiful eyes and others with small cute eyes .

The correct English to describe the shape of the Chinese eyes is "slant eyes", it is not the small eyes. In technology, the 27" wide screen TV appears to be smaller than the 27" full screen TV, but it is the same size if you measure them. However, the wide screen TV which looks smaller is in fashion where as the full screen TV that looks bigger are facing out. It is the question of proportionate. Do you think that their slant eyes are quite proportionate to their slim body?

Cherry's answer is correct.

but the fact is that they have beautiful or cute eyes =)
