An owl's eyes are large in order to improve their efficiency, especially under low light conditions. In fact, the eyes are so well developed, that they are not eye balls as such, but elongated tubes. They are held in place by bony structures in the skull called Sclerotic rings.

THE FACIAL GOLDEN RATIO. ... The reason people with wide-set eyes are seen as less attractive is due to the fact that wide set eyes do not “follow” the golden ratio.
