A '''lighteyes''' is a person with lightly coloredcoloured, bright eyes, such as blue, green, yellow, light grey, or violet.{{book ref|sa1|1}}{{book ref|sa1|5}} In the [[Vorin]] kingdoms of [[Alethkar]], [[Jah Keved]], and [[Kharbranth]], they form the nobility, ruling over the [[darkeyes]]. Lighteyes are ranked in ten different levels, in accordance with the dahn caste system.

According to the [[Vorin]] religion, all lighteyes are born to rule and are superior to the [[darkeyes]], leading to a class system based on eye colorcolour.

The defining characteristic of a lighteyes is not merely the actual colorcolour 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 colorcolour, having deep, dark green eyes that look muddled and is hard to distinguish from brown or black in average light would qualify one as a [[darkeyes]].{{book ref|sa1|2}}

== Changing eye colorcolour ==

Permanently changing one's birth eye colorcolour is generally not possible. However, two exceedingly rare methods are currently known to change one's eye colorcolour.

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|sa1|16}} The exact colorcolour of the Shardbearer's eyes depends on the specific type of Blade they bonded to.{{wob ref|3255}} This would also be accompanied with a promotion to the fourth dahn for the Shardbearer. This legend, though a foundation of Vorin society, went untested for centuries, until [[Kaladin Stormblessed]] won a full set of [[Shardbearer|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 colorcolour.{{book ref|sa2|68}} This effect lasts only as long as the formerly darkeyed shardbearer keeps ownership of his shardblade, as Moash's eyes changed again upon losing his.

It is speculated that the distinction between lighteyes and darkeyes stems from the [[Knights Radiant]]. The Knights Radiant all used [[Surgebinding]] and [[Shardbearer|Shards]], which granted them light-coloredcoloured eyes even if they didn't have them at birth. Because the weapons and magic that the Radiants wielded were so superior, the belief that light colored eyes being superior to dark coloredcoloured ones came to be. The bond between [[spren]] and humans is what actually causes the colorcolour change.{{wob ref|7729}}

[[Hoid]] thinks that he should be amused by the import given to the colorcolour of one's eyes, but he isn't, since he has seen other arbitrary systems of governance; additionally, he recalls that there is a good reason why the belief in the superiority of lighteyes came to be.{{book ref|twok|epilogue}}

The first dahn consists of the king. The second dahn contains the highprincesHighprinces. The third dahn is made up, at least in part, by the non-heir children of the king, the non-heir children of highprinces,Highprinces and highlordsHighlords{{wob ref|2782}}{{book ref|sa2|52}}. The fourth dahn includes lighteyes who hold the position of battalionlord in the army; battalionlords command a full battalion of a thousand men.{{book ref|sa1|73}} The seventh dahn includes lower ranking officers in the army who are landless and attached to a more powerful officer's retinue.{{book ref|sa1|27}}

People in the tenth and lowest level of dahn are colloquially known as "tenners" and are looked down upon as being barely above darkeyes.{{book ref|sa1|45}}{{book ref|sa2|2}}{{book ref|sa2|45}} Unlike high dahn lighteyes—wholighteyes, who might make a living from their landed estates or by ruling over other men—ormen, or even high nahn darkeyes—whodarkeyes, who might be merchants or master craftsmen—tennerscraftsmen, tenners have to actually work for a living.{{book ref|sa2|45}}

One can raise his dahn through two other, much more rare, methods. The first is through direct intervention by the king or a highprinceHighprince.{{wob ref|2782}} The second is to become a Shardbearer; by doing so, one immediately raises his dahn to that of the fourth rank, if he is not already at or above this rank.{{book ref|sa2|66}}
