Are Chinese people more likely to have a lazy eye?

I'm half. Nope. But main-landers do tend to look down on people from Hong Kong.
Haven't seen any main-landers with lazy eye. Hong Kong though? A few.

Kind of weird talking to someone with lazy-eye cause you don't know which eye to look into.

[meesegoMoo]

No. There are many more of them than almost any other nationality so that's why it might seem that way. From what I understand it's less common in Asians generally.

[AllAmericanGirl99]

Why is it less common?

[meesegoMoo]

I'm assuming because they love symmetry and have for thousands of years. Old traditions of the east have said that physical asymmetry is a sign of something bad, usually evil or a physical ailment.

Naturally fewer lazy eyed people breed that way. Whites have been more spread out through the Romans and Roman backwash, so there've been many pockets that either accepted lazy eyed people or preferred them at times.

they are genetically slanted eyes. and they have to use a mini sticker on their eye lids to them has double eyelids like western. and if they could afford to do surgery, they would do.

[Wenchantedy]

Umm... no. Just because of the chinese stereotype that they have small eyes don't really have anything to do with vision

[AllAmericanGirl99]

Small eyes instead a lazy eye.

[Wenchantedy]

Oh then it's still no, because I seen half and half with Asians, there are lots of big eyes and lots of small eyes there's no definite answer

[Wenchantedy]

Chinese*

[COMMODOREII]

Nope actually those who use computer screens or the phones every second of the day are susceptible to lazy eye. It doesn't matter who you are.

[cunnilinguist]

I like those eyes! Something different from what we're used to!

[Sevenpointfive]

ah yes... those poor Asians suffer from what i call a chronic narcoleptic state

[Jjpayne]

I feel like the eye feature is what sets them apart. But with families having mixed race babies it will be interesting to see what happens to that feature with filtered through two different parents

[Jjpayne]

Now I have a feeling we are talking about something different... What exactly does lazy eye mean to you?

[SenseiSeptred]

I am not sure about lazy eye for them, but I think that the phrase that you are looking for is "epicanthic fold."

[Avicenna]

I don't think so. It think it's people who look at a computing device a lot who do.

[abc3643]

No. Where the Hell did you get that idea?
Neither of those women have "lazy eye".

[Gedaria]

Not that I know of. The condition can affect anyone , it's usually a imbalance of the muscles that control the eyes..

[ActiveSh1tter]

100%. Government is shutting down anyone who dares tell the truth.

[AcidT0y]

I doubt it. Not seen a study about it or anything though so maybe I'm wrong

[ItalianGuy2PointO]

Just look at them they got 2 of them. That is why they don't open all the way because they are lazy eyes.

[Anonymous]

I don’t think so, it’s probably in every with some people

[Apope16]

No. Its jusy hereditary or based on pollution etc

[JustRollTheDice]

No? Why would you even assume that

[leahzrc]

it's called a monolid

[Iron_Man]

Are you CHINESE? I have no idea never noticed it

[Anonymous]

Nope. That’s not at all true.

[theChineseWASP]

No I don’t think so.

[Cryptic-Game]

I would suspect so but no idea.

[serious]

I don't think so.
