I'll admit, I am a glass eye junkie. But I am having a bit of a problem. (This is a bigger problem since a recent snafu caused all of my bookmarks to disappear...):tantrum

Anyway~

I'm trying to find 18mm glass eyes for my DIM Rain head. I absolutely need no-dome or low-dome glass eyes for her because of the size and shape of her eyes. I've tried 16mm eyes in her and I don't like how they gap around the eye itself. Also, for reference purposes, the domes on Volks HG eyes are way too tall. So, anything lower than that is what I'm looking for. ^-^

So, any recommendations or places I ought to try?

Thanks in advance!:kisses

As far as I remember, THESE (http://stores.ebay.com/jr-toys-house_Dollfie-Eyes_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ14841702QQftidZ2QQtZkm ) are low domed. I know I asked a seller once about it and I'm 99% sure it was this one. It doesn't say anywhere, but they usually tout it WHEN they're paperweighted/high domed and since they're not,here, I think it's because they're low domed :)

You could always ask :) I've bought other eyes from this seller and they were very nice - and FAST!

Thank you very much! ^-^ I do hope they are, because I've been rather frustrated with poor Rain--mainly due to a lack of eyes I like.

I totally feel your pain, as I have a couple that just will not work with high domed eyes at all! XD

These here (http://us.sk-coolcat.com/front/bin/ptlist.phtml?Category=188741) also have very low/near non-existent domes (the ones *not* labeled as Round) and the quality on them is very nice! :3

These are also (http://us.sk-coolcat.com/front/bin/ptlist.phtml?Category=185876) a good option as well! You can also get these type of eyes from Ginarolo, which she marks as Special eyes in her sales threads.

Sometimes high-dome eyes donLt fit well at both eyehole sides, but low-dome or no dome eyes looks plain and without deep. I own a pair of Kanis eyes and fit perfect in all heads and have a nice deep and colour. You cand find it in coolcat site (the first link of Hitasura) They are all the "KA" eyes.

I know that the Hand glass eyes are available in a low lens and they are absoulutly gorgeous, limited in the bizarre color range though, but they do have some kinda neat mauve and olive ones.let me know If you need info and I can turn you on to a distributor for them, she is fast and gives a good discount,
