How is it that sometimes, when I look in mirrors, my eyes change colors?

Question

I have seen the happen multiple times and it completely fascinates me (being a very scientificely accurate person). But, I cannot whatsoever figure out how this happens. My main eye color is a dark brown. On some days, it's blue! And on other days, it's green! It is truly extraordinary! Plus, it was not just me who has seen this happen, other family members and friends have watched this happen to me too. How is this possible? I really am anxious to find out.

Answer 1

Your eyes aren't actually changing colors. What colors you're wearing, the lighting, even the colors around can affect how you perceive things. Like when people say things like, "Oh wow, that color really brings out your eyes!" What that means is that whatever color they're talking about makes it look as though your eyes are brighter, even though they aren't actually brighter.

Answer 2

this often happens when someone is born and the pigments don't fit to your eyes correctly. It is nothing bad. laser-eye surgery can fix it but there is a tendecy for it to wear off on its own. It is kind of like a chameleon changing color. Some people who have this and it hasn't worn off can focus all their energy to their pigments and change their eye color. usually it iso nly 2 colors though.

The lighting of the room you're in can change the color of your eyes. If you are outside, the time of day can affect it.
