Without us seeing any particular shade of eyes, it will be pretty hard to help you! "Brown" is pretty generic. Find something (perhaps personal to you) that the shade reminds you of; the more poetic the better. Another typical way out of this is to avoid any clinicality in describing a shade or shape, and talk about how the eyes make another character feel emotionally, what you know or imagine these brown eyes have seen, the experiences of your character (or friend) and their beautiful personality through the metaphor of what they have seen and done.
