Question 1

what is considered hazel eyes because i have blue eyes by near my pupil its green and sometimes its brown?

Accepted Answer

Hazel eyes: I think this is I the the eyes of the beholder. I would Google for definitions of Hazel eyes and look at images and match up. But you may want another person to gaze into your eyes and help to compare matches. ;-)

Question 2

what determines a babys eye color ? 
so far 1/2 dozen grandbabies none my eye color will none ever have my eye color since both my kids have blue eyes?

Accepted Answer

: missing data: you ask about your eye color but did not mention what it is. Brown is a dominant trait which means it requires only one of two genes to be present. Brown eyed persons can carry one recessive blue and pass it to offspring. Blue is a recessive trait so both parents must pass it to them. If your blue eyed kids have blue eyed spouses, all their kids will have blue eyes.

Question 3

how to make my blue eyes even brighter?

Accepted Answer

Indirectly: Eyes are considered a part of the personality.  If your eyes are blue to begin with, and you have an outgoing, warm  relationship to others, they will attribute that in part to your bright blue eyes.  There are contacts which can enhance eye coloration and if your eyes are red, or squinty, that will make the blue seem less obvious.

Question 4

could blue eyes be dominate over brown?

Accepted Answer

Generally not: Brown eyes dominate over blue.  While eye color inheritance is somewhat mixed, if the only colors in question are strongly blue and strongly brown, then brown dominates.  This means of the two genes for any one characteristic, in this case brown, if you have one brown (the other can be either), your eyes will be brown.  You would require two blue genes to get blue eyes.

Question 5

why are blue eyes less common than brown ones?

Accepted Answer

Genes: Multiple genes influence eye control.  This is affected by inheritance.

Question 6

what is the definition or description of: blue eyes?

Accepted Answer

Blue eyes: Blue eyes- eyes that are blue have less pigmentation than other colors and are  from  recessive genes.

Question 7

why would someone's blue eyes turn darker almost black?

Accepted Answer

Heredity or disease: This is increased melanin in the iris. This can happen from medication, heredity, or metabolic issues. This should be evaluated.

Question 8

i'm curious as to why would blue eyes turn darker almost black?

Accepted Answer

It is Melanin inIRIS: Melanin is the pigment it can make freckles brown and it can make iris of the eye which gives its colour as retina is transparent.At birth the iris is devoid of melanin and that gives the blue colour.
But by 9months to 12 months iris of the baby gets melanin and may turn brown or dark brown
but brown eyes at birth never turn blue.

Question 9

how can a black person have blue eyes?

Accepted Answer

Complicated genetics: Typically, dark-skinned folks have dark colored eyes, light-skinned folks from europe have light colored (often blue) eyes. In america, there are many black people with a fair amount of european ancestry in their background. Depending on the amount of european ancestry a black person has, it is possible for some blue-eyed genes to emerge.

Question 10

are blue eyes more sensitive to light?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Blue eyes have less pigment in the iris and therefore transmit light to the retina easier, increasing light exposure and sensitivity. Not all blue-eyed people are abnormally sensitive to light. Adaptation can happen, as well as the wearing of sun glasses for protection and comfort.
