Answer: The size of the doll and the head is not what needs to be measured. The size of the eye opening is the measurement you need.  To do this you need a measurement tool either a ruler, measuring tape, micrometer. Take the dolls head and measure the eye opening from size to size (corner of the eye near the nose, out toward the ear) once you have gotten that measurement it will need to be converted to millimeters.
(see chart below) We usually recommend adding a millimeter or two to that measurement.

Question: What is the difference between a paperweight eye and a blown glass eye?

Answer: Paperweight eyes are a solid glass with a raised iris
(there is a dome of glass on top of the iris like a crystal contact lens) You would not be able to use this for a sleep eye. It gives the doll a deep eye effect and most paperweights have threading in the iris like in a Jumeau or Bru doll. With the exception of the 5035 flatback paperweight which has a
realistic human iris. (See Photo)

Question: What is the difference between a Round and Half Round eye?
