Eyes. People describe them in different words. For some, this is not just an instrument of perception, but something more, and sometimes even sublime. Here are just some of the thousands of thousands of quotes:
However, despite this, there are also realists who believe that the eyes in reality can emphasize or indicate only the physical state of a person, for example, fatigue or drug intoxication.
And … and so it turned out
But I'll go straight to the most interesting research, which was aimed at a completely different, but oh well, identifying the connection between taste preferences, social role and human mental health.
The results did show that connection and in 1979 it blew everyone's head.
Three years later, Christoph Jacobson, a graduate student at Nashville University, stumbled upon this work and decided to reread it. He noticed something interesting: After reviewing the work, he found an unidentified relationship between eye color, taste preferences, and mental health. Then a graduate student, in turn, wrote a paper on the relationship of the above, for which he later received the title of Doctor of Science.
In it, he cited the records of scientists who testified to the color of the eyes and, directly, the relationship. Thus, he figured out the following dependence:
- People with heterochromia or "albino eyes" are 27% more prone to nervous breakdowns
- Brown-eyed people are more prone to aggression than others by 46%
- Blue-eyed people were 15% more likely to be unreasonable than others
- Green-eyed people are more prone to mystical psychosis than others.
- People with mixed eye colors were more likely to have obsessive thoughts and ideas related to violence.
Then, even the police adopted this method, and if the identification of the suspects came to a standstill, then the accused was chosen by the color of the eyes and sometimes even this worked, but because of the police talked out and the public revolt, for some reason, it was worth stopping this practice.

After numerous trials, demotions, releases and sensations, revealing scientific articles began to appear in the media, they say both works were falsified / ordered / misunderstood, but the fact that this article was unfairly oppressed will remain in history.
Despite this, it is worth noting that sometimes, in order to confirm your conjectures, it is worth learning more, and if we talk about the definition of a mental state, then you need to know the person himself more, maybe this is just a habit or an image. However, on New Year's Eve, do not look at the TV and another talking head, but in the eyes of loved ones. You will see love and care in them, and maybe something else.
