Summary

As of yet, I have not seen anyone create eye mods for these characters.  I decided to try my hand at it.  And if there are other characters that I decide to create eyes for, I will post those here as well.
  • Keira - changes her eye color from green to sapphire blue.
  • Ves - changes her eye color from light blue to an icy blue.
  • Priscilla - Priscilla was always one of my favorite characters in the game.  Although she is sadly not in it for very long, the scenes she is in simply radiate when she is on screen.  Her vanilla dark green eyes suit her, but I wanted to give them a little more color and pop to go along with her beautiful voice.
  • Mary Louisa la Valette - although she does not have much screen time in the game, she is one of the most beautiful women in The Witcher universe IMHO.  I'm not aware of any other mods dedicated to her beauty, so I created this mod to give her rich, chocolate eyes to accent her exotic beauty.
  • Cerys - changes her vanilla light brown eyes to have a bit more pop and really complement the brown tint of her hair.
  • Syanna - I always saw her as more on the evil side of the spectrum due to the association with the Curse of the Black Sun (not to mention her own actions during the course of the DLC).  As such, I thought giving her red eyes looked more appropriate and tied in to her cape from late in the quest.  This comes in two versions: Main (which is a vibrant red) and Alt (which is a more subtle blood red). Note: Blood and Wine DLC is required for this mod.
  • Orianna - her dark green vanilla eyes always felt passive to me, particularly upon her great reveal.  This comes in three versions: Fiery Yellow, Subtle Blood Red, and Vibrant Red (same as Syanna).  The red versions were created at the request of Maiakovskyy.  Note: Blood and Wine DLC is required for this mod.
  • Ciri - per request by nelsonmeister, Ciri has the same green eye texture used on Priscilla.  This includes her normal eyes as well as her crying eyes.
  • Complete Eye Overhaul - upgraded textures for all eyes in the game.  All of the game's vanilla textures have been given a massive face lift.  With the help of AI, I increased the resolution on all textures to 2048 x 2048, which greatly increases their definition and quality.  In most cases this is 4x - 8x higher than vanilla (most eyes were 256 x 256 or 512 x 512).  In some cases it is up to 16x higher (Fugas' eyes were only 128 x 128 to start with), whereas a few are 2x higher (a few were 1024 x 1024 to start with).  This overhaul includes all common eyes for NPCs, as well as specialty eyes such as Geralt, Ciri, Yennefer, Avallac'h, Ge'els, and even some monsters such as Godlings, Sylvans, Chorts, and Cockatrice.  And it also includes all eyes in the HoS and B&W expansions, such as Regis regular and vampire, Detlaff vampire, and Orianna.  Note1: these are the same color, style, and design as the vanilla eye textures.  These are not new eye textures; they are higher res, higher quality versions of the same vanilla textures.  Note2: this mod only contains textures.  As such, it should be compatible with everything that works with vanilla eye textures.  If you have other eye textures you prefer to use (such as Geralt, Yen, or Ciri), give those mods higher priority over this one.


Installation
Extract contents to your \mods folder.  Can also use Vortex (or other) mod manager.

To uninstall, simply delete the mod from your \mods folder or disable in mod manager.

I don't know if these mods need higher priority.  I tested them with other mods for each character and priority didn't seem to make a difference.  Still, if they don't work for you, I'd recommend increasing the priority.


Compatibility
These should be compatible with other mods that don't change eye textures.  I tested them with mods that alter both Keira and Ves' face and there was no conflict with the eye mod.
