hooded eyes/eyelids

If the description in your text is of the person's permamnent appearance, then this might be the solution. Hooded eyes/eyelids are eyes whose eyelids which give the appearance of being partly-closed. It's a permanent feature, not one caused by illness, injury, automatic reaction to stimulii such as bright light or smoke, or by intent (e.g. 'He looked at her through half-closed eyes), and the only way it can be altered is by plastic surgery or other such treatments.
