She has four eyes because of reasons that are:

If a Gem has a crush on another Gem, then they will share a pair of arms in the fusion, because it is intimate/romantic. They share eyes if they are a perfect/really good match in the context of the arms.

I have enclosed explanations for the two fusions who are in forms slightly differing from others.

Garnet: Garnet has an extra because Sapphire does, she's still considered a perfect romantic fusion.

Malachite: Jasper and Lapis not only have no romantic interest in each othere whatsoever, but they have no interest as friends, either. This makes another pair of arms. If at least one were murderous to the other instead of just loathful, Malachite would have four pairs of arms. Lapis is not mean enough for that, however, and, whether  Univerrsians believe it or not, Jasper is a fair soldier who believes that Homeworld is doing rebel Gems a favor by "fixing" them. She doesn't naturally think about bigger things in life, but can and probably does on occasion, kind of like Steven. She enjoys the challenge of battling other Gems because, well, look at her! She's strong enough that it's very hard to tire herself out enough without her job nowadays, and she enjoys the mental challenge being in combat offers as well, as it is a bit like timed chess. I don't think Jasper quite realizes what war is truly like, as in how terrible it is, as I believe in multiple versions of each Gem and think that another, different Jasper fought instead in Pearl's holo-flashback, because 5,000 years is like a decade or so to a Gem, and something as traumatizing as the War would have been ingrained in Peal's memory enough to recognize Jasper, anyways.

Oh, and, btw, Pearl's eyes are larger and on top because she is slightly dominant, since she is the one with the romantic interest in her fellow fusee that is all-consuming and obsessive, while Rose has none. It may also be because Pearl has an attitude that is more commanding and less gentle than Rose, believe it or not.
