A '''lighteyes''' is a person with lightly colored, bright eyes, such as blue, green, yellow, light grey, or
The defining characteristic of a lighteyes is not merely the actual color of their eyes, but that they have a light and distinguishable color. For example, although grey is not normally considered a bright color, having light grey eyes qualifies one as a lighteyes.{{book ref|sa1|1}} Conversely, although green is normally seen as a light color, having deep, dark green eyes that looks muddled and is hard to distinguish from brown or black in average light would qualify one as a [[darkeyes]].{{book ref|sa1|2}}
According to the [[Vorin]] religion, all lighteyes are born to rule and are superior to the [[darkeyes]]. Additionally, Lighteyes themselves are classified according to the [[dahn]] system, a ten level hierarchy indicating one's social position. The first through third dahns are occupied by the King, [[Highprince]]s, Highlords, and other members of the high nobility, while the tenth dahn consists mostly of normal people who work for a living.

== Becoming a lighteyes ==
Permanently changing one's birth eye color is generally not possible. However, it is a well-known legend within [[Vorin]] society that if a man wins a [[Shardblade]] on the battlefield, he will become a Lighteyes, regardless of his previous station in life.{{book ref|wok|16}} This legend, though a foundation of Vorin society, went untested for centuries, until [[Kaladin Stormblessed]] won a full set of Shards and gifted them to his lieutenant, [[Moash]]. Upon receiving the Shards, Moash's eyes did indeed lighten, from a dark brown to a tan color.{{book ref|sa2|68}}
[[Kaladin]]'s eyes change during his fight to save [[Dalinar]], although they changed back afterwards.{{book ref|sa2|2}}
