See a doc soon!: That is worrying! There are several causes of acquired heterochromia, none common. But having a special disease is not much consolation, I know. Hopefully this is due to an easily treatable condition. See an eye doc as soon as possible, or even go to an eye urgent care clinic, if available. Glaucoma can cause changes in color as well as other inflammatory diseases. See http://tinyurl.com/ofbx2sa

Change in eye color: Please see an ophthalmologist. Changes in the cornea, iris, or aqueous humor could cause a color change. In some people, it may be genetically programmed. I would be worried about glaucoma, perhaps iritis.
