When describing the color of a person's eyes, you normally identify them first by their color. Common eye colors are black, brown, blue, and green. Depending on the color if can have a tendency to white or to black (the color itself is stronger or weaker). In this case, you can add the words light (tending to white) and dark (tending to black) before the color to express it. Another characteristic that you normally use to identify another person's eyes is the shape - round when it is more like a circle and narrow when it is more similar to a line. Finally, you can refer to them in terms of their size, large (when they are big) or small (when they are not). Tom also expresses an opinion, saying Lisa's eyes are full of energy and vitality. In this case, you say one's eyes is bright.
As you do with hair, the adjectives to identify a person's eyes also follow an order in English. First, you express this opinion, then move on to the size, then the shape and finally the color (preceded or not by light or dark).
Example: Tom has beautiful, small, narrow, light green eyes.
