Italian term

occhi obliqui laterali

Italian to English Medical Medical (general) aesthetic medicine
I am translating a presentation for an aesthetic medicine convention and I came across this sentence:

"Nel prossimo congresso di medicina estetica tratteremo anche l’argomento “aree anatomiche dimenticate”. Padiglioni auricolari, per esempio, oppure gli occhi obliqui lateralmente o prominenti o incavati."

I would appreciate any help with the English translation of the term "occhi obliqui laterali".
