Both pairs of eyes are 16mm, The first pair I got had little goldfish embedded in them and the other pair is called Space in The Woods. They are both made from acrylic.
This was the first pair I bought I really like the fish in the left eye because it's a bit chunkier and despite what the picture would have you believe it's more noticeable than the one on the right. As you can see in this picture there is a bit of rouge putty they are quite difficult to put in but a nice thing about them is they have no dome. I know quite a few people like domed eyes but in nearly every doll I have owned high domes have left an unsightly gap.
These eyes are for a character of mine called Saya who I haven't got yet.
These are the space in the woods eyes I really love these eyes they are super pretty, again no dome so no gapping to worry about. I'm not sure who will end up with these eyes yet but Pandora is going to keep them for now.
Here's how I had to put them in the head, these eyes do take practice as you can see they are flat on the back which I think works with the effect of the eyes. My general advice for putting them in is to roll your eye putty into a thin sausage and place around the tops and bottoms of the eye in particular and be mindful of your bjd's eye shape. Try and make sure your putty doesn't seep underneath the eye.
So here are the pros and cons
Pros
-Unique
-Good quality
-No dome great for dolls prone to gapping
-Come in a range of styles and colours
-They also come nicely packaged
Cons
-Hard to put in
-Hard to photograph
-Pricey (but in my opinion worth every penny)
I purchased both pairs of eyes second hand but you can buy Oscardoll eyes from dollpeddler, denverdoll and from the Oscardoll website. I can't confirm this but people have said if you want a specific sold out pair if you go to the Oscardoll website and request them they will make a pair for you.
