I'm asian and my entire family has these nice big iris and have a decent amount of white in their eye. But I'm the only one in the family with a tiny iris and a crapload of white in my eye. So I look retarded and dull. Why is this? Does this have anything to do with how I eat and my surroundings?

(a) You don't look 'retarded and dull', you look great. Remember, for a lot of people, different is sexy.
(b) It's interesting how these sorts of variations pop up in a family, but then every time 2 gametes fuse, it's a re-shuffle in the genetic deck. Why not find out if anyone else in your family has shown this kind of iris? Maybe you're starting a new family tradition!
(c) If you're concerned about your eyes for any reason, it would be a good idea to get them checked by an optometrist to make sure that there isn't something there that you should be alert to. There's almost certainly nothing wrong, but it would probably help you feel better to know.

I doubt it has anything to do with the foods you eat or your environment seeing as you live with your family, who on the opposite have bigger iris.. Have your eyes always looked like that from birth or is it something that changed during aging process?
Personally, I think you should just appreciate the uniqueness of your eyes. If someone says you look "retarded and dull" then ignore them.. these type of people aren't worth your time, or your thoughts. People, most especially teenagers (although being one myself), seek for perfection in their looks too much these days. xP
just forget about it.. and go enjoy life. ;p
