FAQ: Hazel Eyes

Why do hazel eyes turn green?

Hazel is a mixture of green and brown, sometimes with gold, red spots. Hazel-colored eyes appear to change color depending on the environment: the lighting or the colors a person is wearing, making them golden-dark green or a light brown. Hazel eyes contain moderate amount of melanin in the iris which enables them to change colors.

Are hazel eyes more sensitive to light?

Eyes that are light-colored have less melanin therefore they are less protected from harmful UV rays, the lighter your eyes are, the more light-sensitive they appear to be. Which makes people with light hazel or blue eyes are more light-sensitive.
