Is it normal for my baby's eyes to change colors in the first couple of days after birth?

Yes: The human eye is not fully developed at birth and, indeed may change for many years. The color of the iris can change throughout life. Unless there is a small patch on the iris that changes color, generally iris color changes are probably normal. If there is any doubt, have it check out by an ophthalmologist (M.D.).

Yes.: There are many reasons why your baby's eyes may change color after birth. Many babies initial eye color may seem blue. However the "permanent eye color" may not be stabilized and validated until as late as 6 months of age. Then there are "hazel-eyed" children whose eyes may look blue on some days and green on other days--typically influenced by the color of clothes being worn.

Babies eye color: Most babies of white parents are born with blue eyes. They may stay blue or gradually change through grey, hazel or brown over several years. An apparent change in color over the first few days may be related to the size of the pupil at different times or different lighting. It doesn't indicate anything wrong.
