9-10-11: light-brown and hazel iris
12-13: medium brown iris
14-15-16: dark-brown and black iris

[Tongio]

14 i think

[placebo]

14 or 15.

[paradox]

5: blue-gray iris with yellow/brown spots

[Rafael Passoni]

Hazel-green eye. Type 8 I think.

[Dirdepo]

9 with UV exposure, 10 without

[Chron]

Either 1 or 2

[Gallop]

Green with central brown or orange dichotomy, I don't care what people say, I have green eyes; although sometimes they look brown especially at night and without light.

[Ellethwyn]

Mine are blue/green? with yellow brown spots. It's not listed.

[Kaspias]

It's amber. A more solid version of 11 I think.

Its like looking at the sky trough early autumn tree crowns while laying down...nice

My eyes are not in that list.

In detail they are eyes with central heterochromia, with three concentric rings of variable colors. From the center outwards the colors are basically dark brown, light brown/yellowish hazel? and bluish gray.

As I don't have very large eyes, the general sensation from a distance is that they are simply dark hazel.

I'm bored of posting photos of my eyes, but if necessary and without the need for you to pay me money, I can post them again.:D

[TheMaestro]

I think Richmmond calls it poop color.

[Luke35]

12-14 range, impression can change depending on lighting.

[Mejgusu]

68-70 range, idk

5 is closest to me, hubby is 7. Our sons are 12 and 7.

[catgeorge]

Probably 3

Probably 8

That´s your eye or your ass?

Light Brown. Although I may also carry genes for blue eyes. According to the Sano Genetics (https://sanogenetics.com/) Genetic Report:

"CT at position rs1667394 means that you are very likely to have brown/hazel eyes, but blue/gray eyes are still possible."

"We often think of eye colour in terms of simple rules - brown being more dominant than hazel, which is more dominant than blue. Of course reality is much more complicated..."

At SNP rs1667394 you have the variant CT.

This means you are very likely to have brown/hazel eyes, but blue/gray eyes are still possible.

Besides the changes to the on/off switch of OCA2, there can be changes to the sequence of OCA2 gene itself, which affects the structure of the melanin pigment produced. For instance, people with an A at position 27985172 on chromosome 15 are more likely to have green, hazel, or black eyes while people with a G at the same position are more likely to have blue or grey eyes. You can check your DNA at this position, called rs1800407, and see how it compares to your eye color.

At SNP rs1800407 you have the variant CC.

This means that you are more likely to have blue or grey eyes.

The OCA2 gene was actualy originally discovered due to it’s role in albinismJump to reference section: albinism, an inherited condition in which the amount of pigment present in the skin, hair, and eyes is reduced. In fact, there are 7 different ‘OCA’ genes (named OCA1, OCA2, …, OCA7) which are similar in their sequence, but produce slightly different proteins. Variation in many of these genes can cause alibinism as well as more common variation in eye/hair color.

The eye is just the beginning

Because many of the pigments present in the eyes are also present in hair and skin, genetic variation that has an impact on eye color often has an effect on hair and skin as well. For example, people with the letter T in rs1667394 (described above, the site with the strongest known effect on eye color) are also 5x more likely to be have blond hair than brown hair.

The second site mentioned above, rs1800407, has also been identified as a risk factor for melanoma, a form of skin cancer.

As genetics research continues to involve larger and larger numbers of people, understanding of the genetic basis of traits continues to improve, as does our understanding of the connections between traits. It is also really important to note that most of these relationships have been studied much more heavily in people of European ethnicity than other parts of the world. Different genetic variants may have different effects in different people, and it is very important for scientists to continue to expand their studies to include as much of human diversity as possible.

I will post it even though nobody has paid me anything (unfortunately), just because I like to post photos.

In certain light and from distance 15 /16 in certain other light and from close it can look 13 /14

Here cropped from distance they look 15 /16

Blue eyes

Genotype: AC
People with your genotype carry one recessive copy of this marker for blue eyes.

Genotype: AG
People with your genotype carry one recessive copy of this marker for blue eyes.

Genotype: CC
People with your genotype have two copies of this marker and are more likely to have blue eyes. Eye colour is affected by multiple markers and resulting eye colour depends on which recessive or dominant markers you carry.

Genotype: CT
People with your genotype carry one recessive copy of this marker for blue eyes.

Genotype: AT
People with your genotype carry one recessive copy of this marker for blue eyes.

Blue eye color in humans may be caused by a perfectly associated founder mutation in a regulatory element located within the HERC2 gene inhibiting OCA2 expression: https://archive.is/oyMYj

Lighter toned eyes

Genotype: CC

People with your genotype often have lighter toned eyes, you have two copies of this marker which blocks some melanin in the eye. Blocks some melanin. Often gives light colored eyes.

Genotype: AG

People with your genotype do not have lighter toned eyes, you have one copy of this marker which blocks some melanin in the eye.

Genotype: CT

People with your genotype do not have lighter toned eyes. You have one copy of this marker, which blocks some melanin in the eye.

Here they look 14 rather but I look into the light of my computer screen. My phone is place infront of my laptop screen, and the light is in my eyes.

Brown eyes will change so much depending on the lighting they can look almost hazel to pretty dark.
