Please help! what is the name for eyes that look like you are looking up and show a strip of white under the iris?

Lid problem: Usually this is due to the lid hanging too low rather than the eye looking up. There are many causes for this but good correction is possible discuss with your ophthalmologist lower lid surgery to improve this appearance. You should also be tested for thyroid disease which can do this.
