Have you heard of this newly developed laser that changes brown eyes to blue in only 20 seconds flat? It’s not ready yet, but is expected in the States within three years for just around $5,000.
The doctor responsible for this technology explains it like this: “The eyes are the windows to the soul. A blue eye is not opaque, you can see deeply into it, and a brown eye is very opaque. I think there is something very meaningful about this idea of having open windows to the soul.”
Hmmm.
What do you think? Would you ever try this procedure? I know a lot of people who wear colored contacts, but a permanent change seems like it would be an emotionally-charged decision, doesn’t it? Or do you consider it the same as any plastic surgery where original features are drastically altered? I’m outrageously excited about this discussion!
Thanks to Cool Hunting for this one.
P.S. Did you know that the gorgeous Kate Bosworth was born with Heterochromia? It’s the difference in coloration, usually of the iris, and it’s pretty arresting.

That’s just weird. I can’t imagine wanting to change my eye color for good (I have brown now). I happen to think Brown eyes are incredibly soft and romantic looking. I do think it falls under the same category as plastic surgery because it’s purely cosmetic.
“brown now”, as if they are going to change. hehe, oops
Definately not for me! And I would have some major issues if my children wanted to switch to blue. I loved it when my blue eyes gradually changed to blue/green/brown hazel and my children have dark brown eyes like their father who is Vietnamese. Trust me – you can see plenty of soul when they want you too. Blue is pretty too but it’s definately not better.
My doctor husband was telling me about this a few days ago. Although the thought of lasers near my eyes terrifies me (yet I would get Lasik in a heartbeat), I say that if you have an extra $5K and want some blue eyes, then more power to you. But I personally would never ever do so. It’s just a little too…. permanent for me.
I’m terrified of lasers near my eyes too. I don’t even dare contemplate Lasik! : )
Lasik is the best thing I ever did over 5 years ago, and I’m still grateful for it everyday; however, changing eye color is definitely not for me. Both my girls have beautiful dark brown eyes from their dad and I LOVE them. It’s one of the things other people comment on the most often: the girls beautiful, brown eyes.
what a fascinating concept. I’ll add it to my list of mental wrestlings about appearance, age, accepting one’s self, being free to do what you want without judgement, honoring your creator, etc. It’s hard to know where to draw the line. I’m brown eyed. My daughters are blue, blue and green. I love that they don’t have brown but I’d never change mine!
This kind of makes me sad. What is it saying about brown eyes? I think they are beautifu (mine are blueish green)l. I suppose many of us change our hair color and some get spray on tans to change their skin color, not to mention surgeries to change body parts. It’s a deep question. I guess I wish we could all be happy and feel beautiful just the way we are.
That’s kinda how I feel. It feels the same as plastic surgery, a desire to look different instead of celebrating the blue/green/brown/hazel eyes, the nose, etc. Why not be who you are? I don’t think that blue eyes are any more “open” as windows to the soul than brown eyes are, any more than I think having brown hair means something that having red hair doesn’t. (Except that you might sunburn more easily, as I do.)
Also, I have three or four people in my life with the same condition as Kate Bosworth. I always thought it was pretty cool! My dad has a hazel fleck in his otherwise blue-sky eyes, but it’s due to a childhood (snowball) injury. Still cool.
I love my brown eyes. Would never try it. Others can do what they like, but I find the doctor’s explanation for this technology rather insulting and misguided. It’s a useless technology, in my opinion – serves no purpose.
I have no problem with the surgery itself, or others’ right or desire to permanently change their eye-color. But 1) I agree that the doctor’s explanation is a little insulting and 2) I wish that we would use our creative and technological genius in some other perhaps more useful way.
I thought it was insulting too! I was sort of shocked that he said it out loud.
I agree. What the doctor said is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard (I have blue eyes myself ). I find brown eyes can range from so dark they’re almost black and very piercing, to light and flecked with gold like my husband’s. I would never want him to change his eye color. All eyes are beautiful and I think it’s the myriad subtle expressions that they make that cause them to be the window to the soul (and one’s inner thoughts) much more than the color.
Agree!
i love my husband’s brown eyes, and I love that my daughter inherited them. I personally am not ready for any kind of surgery on my eyes..
I had blue eyes as a kid and now have a more hazel color. I always wished I could have big brown eyes because I thought they looked so deep and beautiful. My husband’s brown eyes are my favorite part of his appearance and I’m so glad that we were blessed with one brown eyed boy.
I wouldn’t dispute anyone’s right to change their appearance like this, but I would never want to mess with my natural appearance this way (not even if they could give me the brown I’d always wanted).
I would never do this, but I would also not get by nose done or my cheekbones changed – I guess everyone has their own limits. I have blue eyes like my grandfather (skipped a generation) and my son has the same blue eyes. My daughter has the same deep brown eyes as my husband…I think eyes can say a lot – no matter if they are blue or brown – they show kindness, bitterness, hurt…wonder if his surgery would change that?
I have blue eyes and my two daughters inherited the trait while my husband has brown. Although I love having dark hair and blue eyes and my children are always getting compliments on their beautiful eyes I would never consider this surgery. It’s pointless. Eye color is not something that should be that important that you need to have surgery to correct it. The whole idea feels wrong and totally misguided.
This made me sad. My youngest daughter has beautiful brown eyes and her lovely soul shines through just fine. Perhaps this doctor should spend some time with Asians; it might cause him to rethink his statement.
So incredibly sad and awful.
I love my big brown eyes. People are always complimenting me on them.
I think what makes the world truly beautiful is the diversity of colorings. If we all had blue eyes… well how boring would that be? And VanMorrison wouldn’t have anyone to sing his song to.
You just made me tear up with the memory of my husband singing “Brown-Eyed Girl” to our new little daughter in a hotel room in Guangzhou, China. Thank you. :-)
No doubt there are as many people with blue eyes, wishing they had brown as the reverse.
I’m just a wee bit disappointed in the Doctor’s explanation for the technology. It seems to make a negative statement about brown eyes, but, it is HIS opinion after all, and we’re all entitled to that. I love blue eyes, green eyes, brown eyes, hazel eyes, they are all truly beautiful in their own unique way. The procedure is not something I would spend my money on, but I can totally see people going for it and enjoying their new baby blues, if that’s what they want. I’m am super duper happy to have brown eyes that have a richness and charm all their own! :)
Um…there is some seriously racist subtext to that doctor’s statement….
I was thinking the same thing. The very concept of the surgery reeks of racism and “master race” ideology.
It’s certainly true that more people prefer blue, green, hazel – anything but brown eyes – I have very dark brown eyes and I love my eyes. In the past I’ve tried to get colored contacts but mine are too dark for any to make a difference, and now I just like them more the way they are.
My three year old was born with a genetic eye condition called aniridia. It means that she was born with no irises. Her eyes are particularly beautiful because they are all black! You can see what I am talking about here: http://www.katepeaseblog.com/2011/03/45-seconds-with-claire/
Gorgeous, Kate!
I also have a daughter with a medical condition that causes her eye to look black (but just one). She was born with dark blue eyes, but after a tumour, cataract, and now glaucoma, her left pupil has atrophied (is stuck open). The pigment of the iris has also darkened from the medications and the tiny bit you can see is very dark brown.
Her doctor told us that pigment can be scraped from the dark eye to make it look more like the ‘good’ eye, but that she discourages it (and that is essentially what the laser does). Why mess with something as delicate and important as an eye just for the sake of cosmetics?
And my dd is now ten and loves the fact that her eyes are different, so when I mentioned this laser procedure to her she wrinkled her nose and said, “Why would people do that?” This is from a kid who has had over twenty eye surgeries (including two laser) and has been fighting her whole life to save the vision in her eye.
Is this a result of all the crazy photoshopping going on? Blue eyes are easier to make “sparkle” in photoshop…but that certainly doesn’t mean brown eyes are not a window to the soul. You just have to be open to seeing it.
I have hazel eyes, my son has dark brown eyes (and has since the day he was born), my daughter was born with blue which have now changed to a greenish-gray-hazel, and my hubby has grey-green. I hope none of them would ever change them. They are part of what makes them so beautiful to me, each in their own way.
All of my newborns had dark eyes that eventually changed. I love those memories of dark eyed babies!
My first feeling on the subject was just “how sad.” Our differences are what make us beautiful. I also feel like altering something like this is (well, this may sound extreme) almost like disinheriting yourself from a long line of family history. I feel like my eye color is a link to my heritage, as are so many others of our physical attributes.
I totally agree! I never met my grandfather but I was over the moon when my aunt told me I had his eyes!
I guess I get it – people change their haircolor and dye it their whole lives. People change their noses, etc. Still, I wouldn’t do it. There’s nothing wrong with brown eyes or hazel eyes, like mine. So what if people can’t see directly into… what, my optic nerve or something? What does that doctor think people see in there? My husband has blue eyes and I can’t see into his eyeballs! Nor would I want to…
Hahaha.
I grew up in Norway, in a sea of blue-eyed people. I always felt that my brown eyes made me a bit special somehow. Now, even though I’ve moved to the USA where lots of people have brown eyes, I still like mine.
And my little boy has inherited them too. What’s not to love about these eyes? http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ffm0fd2vgcU/Tq9mdH7R2AI/AAAAAAAAB3s/8SbOwKYMMEA/s1600/IMG_1068.JPG
This will sound silly and vain, but I really love my blue eyes. I’m the only one in my family with blue eyes, so they have always seemed really special. (Gotta love that recessive gene!) So I might understand if someone wanted blue eyes. :) In fact, I would never try Latisse (the medicine that makes your lashes grown full and long) because of the risk of it turning my eyes brown. I would rather have blue eyes and stubby lashes. The only thing I would worry about with this new technology is possible side effects to my sight. A laser on my eyeball is too scary!
and all this being said, I think brown eyes– or any other color– are so beautiful too! so, yeah, I would view it just as cosmetic surgery, if you want a change, then, hey! go for it!
Never! I love my brown eyes. I feel like it would also be disrespectful to my parents who gave them to me. My baby has the most gorgeous brown eyes and I hope she never feels like she has to change them to feel beautiful. The eyes are not the only window to the soul. I do think the doctor’s comments are a little offensive and perpetuate the notion that only certain women and certain races are beautiful. Kind of a shame!
I wonder if I would feel different about this procedure if I’d read about it without the Doctor’s offensive comments. It’s hard to get past that.
That’s awful! Our differences are what make us beautiful and those differences tend to fall in and out of fashion. Remember when everyone had thin eyebrows but now thicker is better? At least plucking your eyebrows isn’t permanent…..
I’m just waiting for high foreheads and big hips to be trendy, then I’ll be the coolest kid on the block!
No way. What’s with this doctor assuming we all wish for blue eyes? I LOVE my light brown eyes and wouldn’t change them for anything. I also think eye color is too deeply embedded into our identity to just alter it forever. That’s why they invented colored contacts.
This doctor thinks blue eyes are superior, and I suppose he stands to gain a lot from this view, but it’s a position that wreaks of white supremacy.
Diversity is praised verbally all over the place, but we actually seem to be growing less tolerant of it when it comes to physical appearance. This is very sad to me.
It’s amazing how far modern medicine/technology has come, but personally I wouldn’t do it. I have blue eyes and have always thought brown eyes are so beautiful (guess it’s that whole: you want what you don’t have thing) :)
I can’t help thinking of Michael Jackson and all of the procedures he went through which ultimately disfigured him and made him look terrible. He likely would have had this surgery if he could have, I’d wager. I have brown eyes and love them, but both of my children have blue.
I admit, I adore my dark blue/green eyes and my husbands gorgeous gray/blue eyes, but brown eyes are so pretty and the brown that so deep it borders on black is amazing.
This is just sad. It seems that much of the world holds pale, blue eyed, blonde on a pedestal and it is just ridiculous. There is so much beauty in the variety of skin tones, eye color, and hair color I can’t imagine wanting to permanently change those things.
Yeah, I feel like there’s some serious racism going on here – only blue eyes are expressive? Something like 75% of the people in the world have brown eyes. This bugs me even more than boob jobs or other cosmetic surgery. I have brown eyes and I love them – my eyes are beautiful and expressive and flecked with gold. Why in the world would I want to change that?
I have hazel eyes, a green/brown, and my dad loves pointing out that all his kids have his mother’s eyes, with what he calls a “starburst” of gold around the pupil (he has blue, and is the only one in our family with blue eyes). I can’t imaging changing my eyes, and I’ve also loved seeing what color eyes each of my nieces and nephews ends up with. Fun with genetics! I guess if someone’s biggest problem is their eye color, that’s not a bad problem to have, or a big problem to have such an issue with your eye color.
Seems very strange to me. It makes it seem like blue eyes are superior which is pretty weird. Just imagine if everyone in the world had blue eyes? I say that would be downright BORING.

How interesting. I laughed reading the doctor’s argument. My husband has always said the opposite. He loves brown eyes because they show depth of soul and blue eyes to him seem shallow.
I for one love all eye colors and hope this procedure does not turn too many heads. Eyes are gorgeous and I love all the different shades of colors I come across. I also love how eye color naturally lightens as we grow older. My light brown eyed mother-in-law’s eyes are turning a gorgeous shade of green that is matching her lightening hair. We are given our color for a reason. I LOVE blue eyes but I wouldn’t change my dark chocolate brown eyes for the world.
I love the variety of eye color…I can’t imagine changing my eye color (mine are green). What does that say to my daughter, who also has green eyes? What does it say to those with brown eyes? Or to those with blue? I think all eyes are beautiful because they are the window to the soul…no matter what color the window happens to be.
wow….while i LOVE my husband’s blue as the sea in the caribbean eyes….which is what first drew me to him…..i have brown eyes, and baby boy got them too. talk about a window to the soul…baby boy can tell you anything with the flick of his eyelashes and one look into his gorgeous brown eyes. i think that doc has no clue about truly looking into a pair of eyes.
I would never consider this as I already have blue eyes. My husband and son both have brown eyes. I really can’t imagine them any other way. It would make me sad to have their face changed so radically.
I wonder though, is this in response to the eyelash growing serum that changes eyes from blue to brown?
Awww!!! I’m a blue-yellow eyed wonder, but have always been over the moon for brown eyed men. I only ever dated one, and I married him! I love my husband’s soft, warm, Italian brown eyes. VIVA LA BROWN EYES! :)
I’m curious to know who this Doctor tested his procedure on and if there are any risks. Could you imagine getting this done and them loosing your eye sight some how? Would I get this done? Maybe if I was wanted by the law! Besides I can think of A LOT of good productive things I could do with 5K instead.
that’s a load of bunk… brown eyes are just as soulful. There’s something almost creepy ‘aryan nation’ about that comment! I have light eyes but LOVE deep brown eyes. I think that ‘window to the soul’ quote was meant to be a metaphor and not so literal!
haha I agree with paula’s comment about the slightly “aryan nation” tone to that quote….
I have the deepest darkest brown eyes. You can’t even see my pupils! I love them. I don’t think I have EVER had a “red eye” picture :) I also love my eyes because when people compliment or comment on them, I know they are observant and appreciate the unique.
I can’t handle the laser to the eyes idea or giving up my natural self (I don’t even wear makeup because it’ll cover my freckles). But I think it’s fascinating that this technology has made eye color changing possible…wow.
Window to the soul? If they were turned blue, would I really want to look into the soul that felt he or she needed that transformation for clarity? I get so discouraged with people’s obsessions with facades, and that’s on more than the physical level.
I have light brown eyes and I would never ever change them! My husband always says his favorite feature of mine are my eyes. Eyes are so much a part of your personality and who you are. I would never change them.
I think this is crazy and just reinforces the growing perception that if you don’t like something about yourself that you can pay to ‘coz’ it rather than trying to teach the younger generation to know how to be happy in your own skin. It’s sad and pointless and damaging. I’ll be doing whatever I can to teach my unborn child to learn to love themself and their eye colour, whatever colour they turn out to be.
*fix it… Not coz?!?
I love new advances on all fronts of medicine – but I wish they’d find a laser to fix my lazy eye. :) Kind of selfish I know, but it would be nice to not have to fumble around for contacts every morning. On the other hand, I do wear contacts – and always wanted blue eyes!!! If they could combine a way to fix the lazy and the blue eyes were a side effect…I would do it!
I have to admit that this makes me kindof sad…on multiple counts. I know it’s hypocritical, given that I color my hair (although only really regularly now that the grays have come!), although that’s not permanent, either.
On a personal note, I have large blue/green eyes and for me, they have always been my best feature and what I have received the most compliments on. Because their exact color is unusual, it was one thing about my appearance that I always felt proud of, and I had hoped to pass them on to at least one of my children. But, my children both have beautiful brown eyes, like my handsome husband, and I would not change a thing about their perfect selves! I was just thinking this morning that I don’t think anything is more gorgeous than my daughter’s warm, beautiful, brown eyes.
I guess I also don’t like any judgement that says one genetic aspect of appearance is “better” than another. I don’t agree, and I think it’s almost racist to suggest that this is the case.
I had surgery on my right eye when I was three years old and it turned my blue eye greenish-brown. Now I have one blue eye and one green eye. Because of that, I’m curious how this new surgery is done. My opthamologist said it’s common for procedures like the one I had (laser cataract lens implant) to cause eyes to change colors. I love my husband’s bright blue eyes but I also love my daughter’s deep brown eyes. I would never want her to change her eyes to blue. Her beautiful brown eyes are part of who she is.
Whew! Thank goodness we’ve cured cancer so now we have all this time and funding to waste on this stu– what? Oh.
Oh wow, that’s pretty crazy. I’m Indian born with grey-green eyes, and I remember back when I was in India, everyone else in my class had brown eyes. Now, some of them wear green contacts. I’m sure they’d love this procedure. Hah.
My daughter has heterochromia also and her eyes are amazing; one green and one blue. We didn’t realize it until after she turned 3. Before the one turned green, they were both blue. So strange!
Would never change my blue eyes, but know myself well enough to know that if my eyes were brown, I would never change them either!
this is all makes me think of the hunger games and how people in the capitol lived. I seriously think the world will head that way one day. with the proliferation of tattooing, plastic surgery, fake tans (some people in that book chose to be green etc – so I’m sure fake tans will one day include a rainbow of colours) and drasically changing ones body. Its a fine line because we all like to try and improve our looks and I don’t think anyone should live without some beauty products but I really think one day we will go too far (and possibly some people are already on the way there)
I’m kind of offended. I have brown eyes and they see just fine. Are blue ones better? Prettier? Can the treatment do green? Or Liz Taylor violet? Come on. There are far more serious things we could devote our medical intelligence to.
WoW! What a dumb idea. People will buy anything though so I support the entrepreneurial spirit of the idea. I grew up with a gorgeous dark skinned dark haired totally blood related older sister that got complimented all day everywhere we went and I was more fair and I thought dark was where it was at. Come to find out my blonde daughters are highly praised. Sister suffers from her own vanity which was brought on by feeling like the exterior actually means anything.
I first noticed Kate Bosworth’s beautiful eyes on Blue Crush…I thought her different colored eyes were the coolest.
Not sure if I could ever have this procedure. I’ve never been able to do color contacts. I don’t want someone to see me with my blue-gray eyes one day and then really super blue eyes the next. But I guess if it’s permanent and someone really hates their eye color, then go for it.
I’m not keen on the permanent change idea. Embrace the brown :)
So weird. We have a 9 month old and people congratulate us on her having blue eyes!
I was lucky enough to be born with a dark-rick-chocolate eye color, the same color as my beautiful Grandma and my big brother. Sadly, in my late 20′s they faded. Now I’m 31 and I don’t “see” myself in my eyes as I “should.” I don’t know why my eyes are now a pale brown/green color, but it’s shocking to me and it feels, sometimes, like I’m faking being me.
I think eyes are exceptional and truly are a window to the soul. This makes me wonder what is so wrong in a person’s soul that they want the window altered.
Sorry, I don’t know how to articulate what I mean. It makes me sad.
I find this to be very creepy. How can we teach our children to be happy with themselves and their appearance if we are always looking to “fix” things? I have very dark brown eyes, yet I’ve been told many times they are soulful, beautiful and even striking. In my opinion, they are my best facial feature. My 3 children have those same dark eyes and I love that they connect us to many generations that have come before us, back to our Native American ancestors. When we look at old family photos, we can always find those same brown eyes. A special gift, passed down.
As a teen, I was in LOVE with David Bowie – partially because he’s just so darn cool, but also his magical eyes. He also has heterochromia.
I think this is sad. What is wrong with brown eyes? I think they are beautiful and wouldn’t ever change my ‘opaque’ hue!
Be happy with who you are! Brown eyes, blue eyes, or green eyes are all beautiful! Wanting to change one’s body in such a drastic way is a sign that a person has self esteem issues.
You are right, the doctor’s comment are really wrong. It’s a cosmetic procedure that’s all. But I wish They put their energy in research for other thing like cancer instead of eye color….
I forgot to tell, my baby has the same thing as Kate Bosworth but with her hair. She has a platinum strands in the blond hair. I’m wondering if there is a name for that and if it’s gonna stay!
I have blue eyes and as I’ve aged they are getting brown flecks. I would consider the surgery if I could have the blue eyes of my youth.
If I were a brown eyed girl, I would think twice about having the surgery just because blue eyed people are more sensative to the light. This is something that has worsened as I’ve aged. I would think, that if you weren’t used to the pain of sunlight it would seem even more painful than someone that has grown up with it all of their life.
My son-in-law had lasik surgery because he wanted to become a customs agent and you have to have 20/20 vision without correction. He is very happy with the surgery. It has made it possible for him to enter a career that otherwise would have been closed for him. The miracles of science!
My 15 month old daughter also has hererochromia, brown and blue. They are very striking! Sadly though we have encountered some rude people who have pointed out the difference and expressed how they think ‘it is very strange’. Makes me sad that she may have to grow up dealing with comments like this.
Would never consider surgery for her eyes!
The comments made me go google heterochromia. My eyes are 2 different colors (hazel and blue) and I had no idea there was a name for it. My great-grandfather had 2 different colored eyes, too.
Anyway, count me with the people who think this is disturbing. I can’t articulate it, but there’s something so personal about eyes that makes changing them disturbing to me in a way that changing hair color or nose shape isn’t.
This idea, as fascinating as the technology is, kinda scares me. I can imagine some of the diversity of the world disappearing because some people want some twisted sense of conformity that they’re mentally convinced they must adhere to.
My Primary co-teacher was just talking about this concept yesterday–she has a sister-in-law with gorgeous chocolate brown eyes who speaks five languages because she’s from a specific area of the world very far from ours. I’d hate for the beautiful, amazing diversity our world has to be diminished because of this procedure. It reminds me of Brave New World by Aldous Huxley where there are only seven physical types of people in the civilized world. I would hate for any (more) of that book to come to pass.
This comes from a girl who has blue eyes. Why in the world would I want everyone to look like me? I don’t want to feel like I’m looking in the mirror when I’m not.
I guess this goes under the column of ‘definitely no’ for me. I don’t think I could ever do any altering surgery because how do I explain to my daughter not only why her features don’t look like my newly acquired ones, but also why I felt I wasn’t good enough the way I was originally if I’m trying to teach her she is beautiful the way she is.
That being said, lasik corrective surgery so I never have to put in my contacts again, laser hair removal so I can skip shaving my legs- totally would go for those because it’s a time saver not a body alteration.
stunnning eyes
oh my… that is just creepy. is so said doctor nazi or something? what’s wrong with brown eyes? i wish people would just learn how to appreciate their own beauty instead of always trying to look like some photoshop edited magazine cover model.
20 seconds!
I don’t know anyone who is very unhappy about their eyes but this is impressive.
I must say, if I could have it, pain-free in 20 seconds, I’d probably rather go for green eyes myself.
I agree that the surgery sounds interesting and that it would be cool to be able to change your eye color. Let’s say for the sake of argument you decide to have the surgery. You can’t choose the color blue you want (what if it’s a freakish washed out color); you can only change to blue (what if you want green) ; it’s permanent. What if you regret the decision ? There’s no going back. Would you really want to risk having a laser blasted into your eye purely for the sake of vanity ? Where does the brown pigment go ? Does it break down completely or is there a risk that it could clog some fragile part of the eye that affects sight ? I have brown eyes myself. I happen to think that it’s not the color of the eye that makes it beautiful but the fact that lighter colored eyes have depth, whereas brown, which are opaque and flat, do not. I would have rather not have had brown eyes myself but I am thrilled that my eyesight is still 20/20. Isn’t that what’s most important ?? I think it is crazy that people would risk their gift of sight for the sake of vanity.
My eyes are naturally 2 different colours – one blue, the other a browny/green. Most people don’t notice (which makes me realise, most of us don’t really ‘see’ someone when we talk to them), but of the ones who do, I usually get one of the following responses:
a) Ha! You look just like my cat.
b) wow, cool, you’re just like David Bowie/Jane Seymour..
c) Is that a contact lense?
In photos the blue eye goes really light, and the brown/green eye very dark. I’m not crazy about this effect, but it is kinda nice to be a bit different:-)
