A member asked:

Is heterochromia affected by eye injuries?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Can be: Heterochromia--eyes of different colors_ can result from eye trauma with disruption of the iris pigment. The condition can, however, be congenital as well. Changes in the perceived color of the iris may also result in corneal opacities that mute the iris pigment
