Welcome to the forums! Nice photos and beautiful birds. Your birds look healthy and the eyes look normal to me but I'm viewing the pics on an iPhone and I have little personal experience with lovies. We have a nice group of Lovebird enthusiasts on the forums, give them a little time and I know they will be able to offer opinions.

These look normal to me. I'm not an expert on Fischer's lovebirds but just did a google search to check this out, as I wasn't sure, and the image that came up was this:

This one looks similar to yours, there is supposed to be a white ring of skin around the eye. Of course you should always bring a new bird to a certified avian vet to get them checked out to ensure they are healthy and happy.

Your bird looks healthy and the eyes clear to me. I *think* you might just be looking at the white eyeball itself.

what exactly is your concern? they look like a birds eyes to me?

Are you talking about that grey area? That his actual eye lid. the white area is the tougher skin above it!

Relax and share an apple with your flock! of all the OMG pics we see this is the one time I'm like um....you are very protective.... It's fine, those birds look healthy as can be.

I swear to god....I cannot tell the difference. Is the bird your concerned about acting any differently? If so see an avn but I really don't see anything out of the ordinary.

You know what? go see an avn....why not it's always good to get a checkup. Maybe he/she knows something we don't. If it will give you peace of mind it's all the better for it.

oh I see it now! sort of like the eyelid is a little droopy down the bottom

to be honest as long as he isn't bothered by it I wouldn't worry too much

maybe bring it up when you take them all to the CAV to get a check-up (which you should do with any new bird)
