My eyes are hazel and tend to change color but I have no idea why.

Being a guy, I guess I don't really care.
Seeing as how I'm a well-known fan of the Beatles and especially John Lennon, I would imagine that's why he said it! (yes, I have photos of me at the Dakota Building)

My eyes are normally brown with a dark green edge around the outside of the iris. Sometimes they have more hazel in them and sometimes more brown. But Mr. ISUKappa commented one day they looked really green. Never heard that before.

He has green/gray eyes depending on his mood.

Me too!! Most of my life, I had dark brown eyes. My mother used to say that my eyes looked like chocolate drops. Then, when I was 19, a girl on my crew (rowing) team complimented me on my green eyes. I was confused because she was looking at me from 6 feet away and was thinking they're green. When I got home, I noticed that indeed they appeared to be slightly green. I'm now 27 years old and they are a LOT greener than they were before.

My grandfather has blue eyes - no mistaking it. I saw his driver's license once and saw that it said his eyes were brown. After arguing with me, I made him take off his glasses so I could peer into his eyes. They were definitely blue with one or two tiny spots of brown. It would seem that his brown iris disolved away and his eyes are now blue. I am pretty certain that this is happening to me as well. Though, I don't mind too much because I think green eyes are cool.


Oh, some time ago, omega2 asked me what colour eyes I have and I posted this for him. One can see very clearly that there are large swaths of green where a solid brown iris used to be.

navane, that's exactly the eye color I have, including the ring of green! I usually like it, but I wish people wouldn't insist my eyes are brown (Mr RedRose does that...grr...). I tell people they're hazel.

Like Kelly & Laura I had plain brown eyes when I was little, but as I got older they definitely became hazel. (My mom's eyes are brown, dad's are bluish-green.) The odd thing is that this happened to my next door neighbor and childhood best friend too...maybe there was something in the water

My eyes are pretty much brown, but about two years ago they graually were turning this weird hazel/green color. I later on found out that it was because of my contact lens. My eyes were not getting enough oxygen and the blood vessels were moving up to the surface.

I switched brands and now I'm back to my beautiful browns again.

when i was born - the doctors didnt know whether or not to put blue or grey down on my birth certificate because every time they looked at me they were a differenty color.
i, for the most part, have crystally blue eyes.... but when its a really beautiful sunny day, i have the greyest eyes, and when its a dark and gloomy crappy day - my eyes are bright blue. lately theyve been a blue color with a weird green shade in them...
personally im getting tired of having different color eyes
i had one girl walk up to me and DEMAND that i tell her where i got my "colored contacts" because every time she saw me my eyes were another color
