eyebrow
Arch above socket
The eyebrow is the arch of hair above each eye.
Eyebrows protect the eyes from sweat and debris, but their expressive function dominates: raised eyebrows signal surprise or skepticism, furrowed brows suggest concentration or anger.
To raise an eyebrow is to express doubt or disapproval.
Something that raises eyebrows causes surprise or mild shock.
