Is it possible that the eye colour relates to health, eg toxicity? That there is a physical cause to eye colour changes, and that you eye colour provides an indication of what your body is dealing with?
- Thiez 4y agoIf they turn yellow that's a pretty good indicator that you have a problem. Other than that, probably not?
- samatman 4y agoThis is with respect to the corneas, I interpreted the question as about the iris (this is usually what "eye color" means ofc). It's not great when corneas turn pink either.
- pvaldes 4y agoYes, appearance of a brown thin band in the perimeter of gray, green or blue pupils in adults is a known symptom of nerve disease. Otherwise is genetic and fixed but some colors are more variable than other in different light levels. Green/grey seem to change a lot.
- antegamisou 4y agoYes especially when you lose pigment (iris getting lighter). For details see: https://www.aao.org/eye-health/tips-prevention/why-are-my-eyes-changing-color https://www.aao.org/eye-health/tips-prevention/why-are-my-ey...
- verisimi 4y agoBut could it be that the change in eye colour in children, ie blue to green/brown (and even hair colour), is itself an indication of poor health in some way, albeit that we assume it to be normal..?
