What kind of canthal tilt do you have? Yes you have one. Unless you're a neutral. The following is from a plastic surgery website...
Positive tilt refers to where the lateral canthus is 5-8 degrees above the medial canthus. We measure this by drawing an imaginary line between the mid pupil portion of eyeball. The lateral canthus should be 5-8 degrees higher than the nose side. The concept of canthal tilt is widely appreciated in the fashion industry. It is a concept that is conserved across gender lines and ethnicity. It is consistently found in youthful and attractive faces.
Neutral canthal tilt is where there is no angle between the medial and lateral canthus. This appearance can be well tolerated in men and, often does not imply an aged appearance in men. With women, however, this is universally interpreted as a sign of aging. Neutral canthal tilt also contributes to the tired look that so many women dislike.
Negative canthal tilt is most commonly an advanced sign of aging in both men and women. It is commonly associated with excess upper and lower eyelid skin. It is a strong driver of a tired or sorrowful appearance.
Now if this has you curious you can look at the
