Different Colored Eyes Day

Different Colored Eyes Day has two reasons to celebrate. First of all, it celebrates the diversity of eye color. Wouldn’t the world be boring, if everyone had the same color of eyes?

Secondly, it recognizes an eye condition called Heterochromia. People who have this trait, have two different colors of eyes. One eye may be brown, while the other is blue. Famous people who have Heterochromia include David Bowie, Jane Seymour, and Christopher Walken.

Your eyes are an important part of your appearance. They are also important in communications. When you look into your lover’s eyes, you need to like what you see. Making “eye contact” just wouldn’t be the same without different colored eyes. Isn’t it great that we have a variety of eye colors to set us apart from one another?

Eye colors include:

Shades of brown
Shades of blue
Shades of green
Black
Grey
Hazel
Celebrate Different Colored Eyes Day by taking particular notice of the eye colors of everyone you see.
