Forest Whitaker’s Contemplative Lazy Eye
Forest Whitaker, known for his exceptional talent, carries a distinctive feature—a lazy eye or ptosis—that runs in his family. Although the appearance of his eye does not bother him, Forest has considered correcting it for the sake of his vision. Interestingly, critics have hailed his eye as giving him an “intriguing” and “contemplative” look, contributing to the depth and nuance he brings to his performances. It is worth noting, however, that societal standards and descriptions of such conditions can differ greatly based on gender, highlighting the need for more equitable perspectives and language.
