    Default eyes color in Hungary

    I have this study which says Hungarians are 40% light eyes and 60% dark or dark-mixed but I'm not sure if green eyes are all included in the light category.
    what's your estimates or do you have any other survey?

    From everyday life encounters I always thought the percentages between light and dark eye complexion is about 50-50, maybe darker having an advantage.

    Mine are the same as yours. Hungarians can have any eye color in reality.

    Yes. But mine have a more reverse. They are darker and get lighter towards the middle. Sort of like solid ring around the center of a sort of light burnt orange color, rather than sporadic splotches.

    And these are mainly hooded or deep-set eyes.
