While color change in young children is mentioned, I am aware of several people in my family whom have eye color changes relatively constantly throughout their lives. Is there a name for this?
Expand, please
I've started this article though I'm not an expert on this topic. It seems to me like a lot could be written about the geographic distribution of eye colors around the world. So those more knowledgeable about this should expand it! —Lowellian (talk)] 01:34, Dec 4, 2004 (UTC)
Is there information available on demographics, meaning what percentage of people have each pigment, which is rarest, etc?
What about people with Violet eyes (like Elizabeth Taylor)? Or people with those almost white, blue color eyes (if violet and blue-white are not just somehow blue variations)? And if Grey eyes are different from Blue eyes, why not mention them as thier own eye color? Also what more about susceptibility to light damage in brown-, green-, and other than blue-eyed people? Include detailed images of violet, hazel, grey, and white-blue eyes, if possible.
Oi, yo, can you give more info on them there grey eyes with brown ring and black centre please (this is what my eyes look like)
Also
Two brown eyed parents can have a blue eyed child because brown is dominant. Therefore, both parents could have a "hidden" blue gene. If the child got both of these, they would possibly have blue eyes, I believe. Since blue is recessive, I am not sure if two blue eyed parents could have a brown eyed child.68.160.190.21 21:39, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
Green eyes
- "Celtic descent" includes "Irish".
- Aryan sounds a bit vague. It would be better if we had some statistics about the regions where the green eyes are more common Bogdan | Talk 09:38, 31 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Doesn't Aryan refer to Iranian peoples and not Germanic?
- It may now, but the phrase was created by the Nazis.
That is not true. The word "Aryan" has been around for hundreds of years long before Nazis came to existence. It was used to describe people who speak Indo-European language or the people from North India and Iran. Nazis just invented their own meaning of this word.--Tsnatt4 03:13, 21 August 2005 (UTC)
Confusing Grey Eyes Sentence
"Very light blue eyes can be confused with grey eyes". This doesn't make much sense. This should either be rephrased as "Very light blue eyes may give the impression of being grey," or "Grey eyes are often confused with very light blue eyes." Whichever the sentence is intended to mean.
