A member asked:
Why is it that my eyes look green when i put in my contacts or eye-drops, but usually look quite hazel?

Iris pigmentation: Apparent eye color is the sum of many individual tiny colored areas on the iris. There is the background color (dark brown, light brown, blue or gray) and then pigmented areas within the iris. Because there is more than one color present, your color will seem different in some situations, such as wearing green clothes versus brown or gray.
