- Being born with Heterochromia is a rare genetic mutation. Dr. EyeGuy goes over the different types of Heterochromia including Heterochromia Iridum and Heterochromia Iridis, and explains when it can be concerning.
WHAT IS DISCUSSED IN THIS VIDEO
There are different types of Heterochromia. If you are born with Heterochromia, than you likely have congenital heterochromia, and usually a benign, beautiful condition. If you acquire a different colored eye later in life, then it could be linked with some potential problems and conditions. Different types of heterochromia include: Heterchromia Iridum, complete heterochromia, heterochromia Iridis, partial heterochromia, sectoral heterochromia, or central heterochromia. There are some famous celebrities that have heterochromia as well.

How many of you out there have a heterochromia?
I don’t have it, but I encountered something I had never seen or heard about. Sitting beside me on a flight was a woman whose pupil changed shape. Literally, as you watched it would change shape from round to something like a pentagon. (No lizard people eyes.) Have you ever heard of this?
@@glasshalffull8625 No I haven't... that is so interesting.
@@DrEyeGuy She was wearing very dark sunglasses on the airplane that was already fairly dark as she had severe light sensitivity. It had developed a few years earlier (I think she was about 45) and around the time it presented, she was exposed to tear gas during a barricade situation in her apartment complex. I’m retired law enforcement and have never heard of any long term effects, so I don’t know if there is any correlation. She had been to many doctors, but nobody could help her. I even recommended that she create a CZcams video and perhaps someone in the world could help her.
@@glasshalffull8625 Yeah... that is very interesting. I have some pupils of different shapes because the iris was damaged.... or stuck pupil/iris... but I have never seen where it would change shape from circle to hexagon. I'm wondering if certain portions of her iris muscle don't work correctly so it causes that shape... not sure.
@@DrEyeGuy Certainly very odd. Thanks for responding!
I had a boyfriend in my 20’s who has congenital complete heterochromia. It is one of the coolest things to see on a face. He has one blue eye and one brown eye. We’re still friends, and none of his 3 children have it.
Wow nice
I'm an African American woman and I have had heterochromia since I was very young. I have one brown eye and one blue eye just like you. I use to hide it by putting a colored contact lens in, but I gave up on that one long ago and just accepted my genetic blessing :) Little children notice my condition the most and when they are bold enough to ask I tell them I'm an x-man lol
C
Haha! That's awesome, I love it!
So lucky
Bruh, you're so lucky. I kind of always dreamed of having eyes like that
My right eye is blue and my left eye is brown. Very unique for a black person to have this for sure.
You're very lucky! @@Del-Canada
Kind of wish I had this. It's really cool looking!
Yeah, it's pretty cool to see.
@Yavarali_81 not really. Disease can cause it. There are contacts you can wear.
I have it
I have different eye clr
@@maryamhabib4525 what collors?
I have heterochromia but it's extremely subtle. My right eye is brown, my left eye is a lighter brown, a tiny little bit more greenish, almost honey colour. As I said, it's very subtle, but I have noticed it. I like it though. It makes my eyes interesting if you care to pay attention to them to actually notice.
I guess that's a way to tell if somebody is really paying attention to you or not. 🙂
I have same as your eye clr
@hannahsame
@hannah s ki koyi treatment hogii
My brother has the same
It’s really weird because I have central heterochromia and so does my girlfriend and so does our two kids. My eye colors are blue green gray and a little bit of brown and on one eye at the bottom it looks like a cat eye 👁 and the ring on my eye is blower on the outside and more green toward the center and the other colors all in between but does are the two primary colors blue and green on each eye 👁
I just thought I had hazel eyes but i was when someone pointed out to me that I actually checked and the center is a very golden brown and the outer ring is very green. Really cool to find out that I have heterochromia.
That's awesome!
All hazel eyes have either sectoral or central hc to various degrees
My eyes are the exact same!
Hey! I have the same thing!
Enjoyed your video - thanks! Since you asked for comments - I have central heterochromia... thin yellow/gold inner ring, light blue band and dark grey limbal ring. Sounds great, but the overall color is not very attractive. I am, however, extremely grateful to have healthy eyes! There is definitely a hereditary aspect as my mom had almost the same eye coloring as I but her mom (my grandma) had the most amazing sectoral heterochromia - blue eyes with half of one eye brown. Two brothers with gorgeous brown eyes and a sister with sparkling blue eyes.
I think the central heterochromia yellow gold inner rings are amazing looking, especially when looking at it under a microscope.
I have complete heterochromia (one blue eye one brown) as does my older brother (one green/blue and one brown). So my mum has 2 kids with the mutation and I’ve always wondered what the chances of that happening are 😂 I’ve always loved my eyes and thought it’s super cool😌
Got the Central Heterochromia, never actually knew what it was until recently due to everyone were I live call that type of eye "Cat's eyes". With mine they are a nice dark blue for the outer ring of the eyes and then have a sliver of what could be considered golden color around the iris. Almost spot on similar to the eye used for the example pic.
We have the same eye color. I have a dark blue outer ring and a golden, hazel-like color around the iris. Might not be exactly the same but I'm glad to see someone with a somewhat same concept of eye color (if that's how you word that)
I get cat eyes all the time or marbles is another handle given to me
Is it true that they used to burn ppl at the stake with our condition ?
@jessbracken8943 I am not entirely sure about that. If it is true then it would be interesting to know about it.
Me too!❤
1:08 This is my exact eye color, looks a lot nicer in brighter light though haha! I wondered throughout my entire childhood why my eyes looked weird because everyone I knew had a single solid color the whole way through their iris but everyone would say different things about mine, that they're green, blue, grey or hazel. I only recently learned about heterochromia and why mine don't match all the eye color charts. Very cool thanks for the video!
Thats awesome! It's like 3 colors in 1 eyes. Very cool!
Kids used to tease me ALL THE TIME
until I got older then they became very envious.
There are characters a lot of fictional media like anime and video games that have heterochromia. A famous example is Yuna from Final Fantasy X who has one blue eye and one green eye. I had no idea it was a real thing until a few years ago. I honestly think people with heterochromia have very pretty eyes.
I agree.
Same here. Dartz from Yu-Gi-Oh was the first time I ever saw such a thing. It's so cool it exists in real life and I honestly wish I had it ngl.
Thank you
I agree too
I agree too
Whoa that's so interesting! I remember going to school with someone that had a blue and green eye.
That's so cool!
Nice Video, precise and informative! Since you've asked, I have a heterochromia, too. I have a brown and a green eye (with a little bit of brown aswell). I was born with it and I'm the only one in my family to have one. My parents have brown and blue eyes, my brother blue eyes aswell. I get comments on that from time to time and I quite enjoy them, but what made me doubt the state of biology education here is that I was asked several times if I see different on one of the eyes.
This is super interesting! Thanks doc
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
I'm just here because I love to learn! Very interesting information ♥️
That's perfect! Thank you for watching!
I have Central Heterochromia. I'm in my 50's and just learned about it! On my baby pictures my mother wrote that I had "brown and blue eyes." I also had melanin blotches on my back and stomach when I was born. I never paid much attention to my eye color until my 30's when someone said "your eyes are very interesting". The outer color is blue/gray and around the iris is a mid-brown sunburst. I wish I could post a picture here for everyone.
Thank you for the video, it was great!
I am loving these comments. Thank you for commenting. I wish we could see pictures too!
I have it!
My left eye is blue, with a greenish brownish circle around the iris; and my right eye is something between brown and green with blue spots here and there.
I was born with blue eyes, but they started to change when I was around two.
The difference was greater when I was younger though. I love them!
Also, I've met a few people with partial heterochromia, and it was always blue eyes with a brown spot combination.
I love your eyes ❤
@@d.na_dy.a5521 Thank you! :3
Wow thats litteraly the exact same as it was for me. Was born with two blue eyes and the right one turned partially green when i was 2/3
I have central heterochromia, the inner circle is light brown/yellow, the main color is a greyish green, and the limbal ring is a very dark blueish color. When I was a kid I had violet eyes, but they changed around the time my mom quit smoking.
Violet eyes!? That's amazing.
My brother and I both have central heterochromia. I find it really cool because it’s a mix of our mom’s green eyes in the middle and our Dad’s blue eyes on the outside
Very interesting!
Have central heterochromia, my class mate had complete one (brown and blue eye). Really interesting, thank you for sharing!
My right eye is greenish blue with a partial brown. I didn't know that heterochromia is that rare. Thanks for the info doc.
I recently found out i have central heterochromia. The inner part of my eye around the pupil is brown with a distinct gold ring and the rest of my eye is light green. I never thought anything of it I thought thats how peoples eyes are supposed to look until someone told me I actually had different colours in my eye. Now i feel special :)
Do you have a video on central heterochromia vs. hazel eyes?
I have it! Thanks for the vid!
I believe I have center heterochromia. All my life I thought my eyes were normal but recently my wife and I had a baby and I was researching what color her eyes might turn out to be and learned about C.H. My eyes have hazel /brownish around my pupils then light blue eyes then dark blue ring around the outside.
I have hetrochromia! I was born with it. An aunt has a brown and a blue. I have a hazel and a blueish eye. Most people don't notice right away. It's cool when they do notice!
That's awesome!
The three most common colorations of Heterochromia in media (at least that i’ve noticed are:
Left-Green & Right-Blue
Left-Brown & Right-Green
Left-Orange & Right-Red
Hey! I’m here because I have a Heterochromia in my left eye! I have a very similar one to Henry Cavil (Superman!) it’s a 1/4 brown portion. I was born with it! I can’t believe it’s super rare !! I love this video
I have this. Also i hate it when people just use contacts that are diferint colors!
Thank you so much! ❤️ I never knew what this was and was curious since one of my eyes is green! but the other is brown! but both of my parents have brown eyes 🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Luckyy
I was born with partial heterochromia in my right eye. The shifted colour between brown and green when I was young but at some point it decided on a hazel colour. The heterochromia is probably about 55-60% of my iris, slightly dominating the blue that matches my left eye.
When some one asks my eye colour I just say blue, but if the light is just right people will notice. Literally just yesterday I was playing golf around the golden hour with a guy I just met there, he noticed it and I had to remember what it was called!
I sometimes get jealous when people have this lol
I always imagine what it’s like to have two different coloured eyes, I find it very interesting, amazing, awesome and very cool!
Me too!
I had always thought my eyes were hazel, however I noticed they are sort of mix. Deep black circles at the edge, golden hazel steaks with a light shimmer of a pale green in a ring. I’m not sure if it a a lighting thing, but something the colours seem either brighter or darker than usual. Also it’s hard to explain, but really close the iris seems to shimmer like ammolite. It’s really subtle, but it’s there. Eyes are really cool, everyone’s are different ^_^
I agree, eyes are really cool. 🙂
I was born with one blue eye and one green eye
Blue and green! That's awesome!
i have sectoral heterochromia, had to get glasses in the second grade and thats when we found out because i have light brown eyes, but about a fourth of them on one eyes a much darker brown. means you cant really see it so you dont know unless you have the perfect lighting ,but giving new people a fun fact in a circle is alot easier now
I have Central Heterochromia! I’m in my 20s and now love my eyes but all through junior high and high school I wished my eyes were blue because I thought they looked nicer. Just found out today what they’re called!
I have central heterochromia, the example shown at a 1:14 is super close to what my eye looks like! But, even my two eyes Express them differently, from my pupil outward, my left eye goes from a red-brown, to yellow, to green, to blue, to a blackish blue thin ring on the very outer edge. My right from pupil outward goes, brown, light yellow ring, green, blue, and a darker blackish blue thin ring on the very outer edge of my eye as well. The yellow in my left eye seems to be getting brighter and more intense as time goes on. I don't know if that's normal even with people who were born with this. But, the comment that I get the most is "wow! I never noticed how weird your eyes are! Not like that but in a nice way.". Otherwise, I just thought I had Hazel eyes. Definitely don't think I have hazel eyes anymore.
That's awesome, definitely sounds unique.
I have coffee brown in the center and then orange rings, then light green goes between the orange rings but one of the eyes has a more green. My brother has blue eyes with orange rings, and one of his has brown in there as well. My sister has crystal blue eyes with these giant white dots that surround the entire eye. It’s stunning no idea what that is though. Great video 👍🏻
I and my 16 year old son both have hazel eyes with Central heterochromia. We were both born with blue eyes that seemed to turn hazel around puberty. We also both went from blonde wavy hair to dark brown curly hair at the same time. We are both Caucasian but I am 1/8th Maori and my son would be 1/16th.
My hair went from loose reddish brown waves to big stubborn cool ash brown curl ringlets at the same time as my adolescent eye color change (the orange hazel in one eye I was born with expanded to take over most of that eye and the other eye turned green slightly).
Thanks for sharing yours! I hadn’t heard of someone else’s hair changing from mostly straight to curly and color changing too!
Hi Doc! I’ve had heterochromia since I had a scissor accident in my right eye at 5 years old. My damaged eye was a much darker brown than my healthy eye. I’ve just had retina repair surgery and a cornea transplant and now my right eye looks blue! Have you heard of that happening before? Either way, I’m grateful to be able to see again!
My left eye is brown green and my right is blue green it's something I was born with but isn't super noticeable but shows up really well in pictures.
Yes since I was a kid have had blue eyes with brown fleck going through one eye but now in late 20's has changed from brown to more if a green with small brown in centre of one eye
Hi! I have one blue eye and one green eye! I also have two thin central heterochromia: the blue eye has a ring of a yellowy goldenish colour and the green eye has a brown ring around it!
I was born with blue eyes, and when I was about 2-3 years old they started turning green, and interestingly one changed back and then they have stayed like this!!
Wow, that must look amazing!
I have central heterochromia and I have a gold ring around my Iris and a blue eye I've had it my whole life and I do find this rather interesting I've never really looked into it till now so it's very informative thank you
Awesome! Thanks for watching the video.... glad it could help!
Very lucky
I just now found this video, and I have complete heterochromia. My great-aunt on my father's side has it as well; she has one brown eye and one green. My eyes are very different shades of blue, but I also have three color vision deficiencies (I think that's what they're called at least.) so I didn't believe anybody when they told me my eyes were different colors.
One day I was at a non-eye doctor's office and he mentioned it. I said it must just be a trick of the light, and he asked the nurse in the room who confirmed it. When I asked my eye doctor at my next exam, he said he hadn't previously mentioned it because he figured I already knew. He had checked to make sure that I didn't have any problems resulting from my heterochromia, but since I was little I always wanted to tell him about school so he always thought I didn't care to talk about it.
Wow... so you have it, but you can't see it. That's too bad.
I was born with a green and brown eye I have 4 grown children and 10 grandkids 1 great no one has this, as a kid I was bullied now my granddaughter wanted to take me in for show and tell I think it's cool I don't get it 🤦 a year ago I was grocery shopping and I ran into my first we both stopped and just looked at each other like wow his was blown and blue he said I was his first too 👍 I never forget that
I was born with full heterochromia, one blue one brown. Makeup was always tough. Also blue eyes are very sensitive to bright light so that's always fun! I have 3 children on earth. One with brown eyes, one with blue eyes, and one with green eyes. People always get distracted in mid conversation and say, 'hey, did you know you have two different colored eyes?'... No way, thanks for telling me!! hahahaha yes of course I know, I was born that way! Always makes me chuckle. 😊
I'm just realizing at 63 that I have central heterochomia. Always thought my eyes were green but they are actually a blue grey with a mustard colored ring around the pupil. My Dad had the same thing. It pretty fascinating!
i have central heterochromia i didn't know it was so rare i used to have blue eyes when i was little. i goto the eye doctor every 2 years so its nothing to worry about
Hi - my daughter was born with sectoral Heterochromia. At first we thought her eyes colors would even out, now she’s 14 months still the same. She’s very unique 🥰
I have complete heterochromia. One eye is light green, and the other is brown. Only met one person in my entire life with the same condition 😀
Slightly hetero-chromatic. Interestingly right eye that has worse vision (Glasses) has a greener on the right side while the left is a deeper blue. But that's coincidental, my eyes have been like this as far as I can remember.
I was hoping you'd touch on central heterochromia a bit more😅 there's an orange ring around both of my pupils while the outer parts are more blue/green.
My left eye is probably as dark brown as an eye can get, my left eye is probably as light a blue as an eye can get. Sometimes I think it looks really stupid.
Nah... don't think that. That's awesome
I’m not sure if I do or not. I think so. Most of the time you can’t pinpoint what color they are. Blue green or grey or a mix of all 3. But I also have a honey colored ring around my pupil.
Since you asked, I have heterochromia. My eyes are green with sort of a yellow center. Recently discovered it was rare and ended up on this video
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
I have heterochromia. For the longest time I just thought I just had some eye freckles that were way bigger than the others. (I have green eyes,but one has very obvious big brown spots)
I have herochromia and my grandson has and his mother and father have brown eyes. We both have blue with yellow/green ring around the pupil and dark grey on the outer ring. I always get amazing and positiv comments and didn't realise how unusual it is. So i feel blessed❤..
I have central heterochromia, so the color that's surrounding my pupil is a darker color from my iris. But then i wonder what this tiny brown dot that i have is on one of my eyes and on the iris. Is that something i should be generally concerned about? or is it normal?
That can be normal, but you will want to go get your eye exam to make sure.
@@DrEyeGuy ok, thank you for replying. 😁
I have vertical sectoral heterochromia in my right eye. Blue is my main color with a hazel split
I find it so fascinating I got two sons two daughters and my both daughter got blue eyes but my son's birth got two different eye colours my first son got brown and a green and my other son as blue and brown
Could you do some videos on polar cataracts and Fuch"s Dystrophy?
I can for sure put it on the list. 🙂
@@DrEyeGuy Thanks - unfortunately I have both conditions and my local eye surgeons won't operate as I am "too young" and/or my Fuchs may become unmanageable. Hate this. Losing opportunities in life.
I have Central heterochromia my eyes are blue or sometimes green on the outside (It switches between both colors) and hazel in the middle. I never knew what this was called until I found this video.
Born with complete heterochromia ❤️
Left is bright blue and right is hazel
Me and everyone who already have Heterochromia: "Look at them, trying to get our power"
I have a brown left eye and a blue right eye with yellow in the middle lmao.
I’ve been looking for this info! When I was little I had very obviously blue eyes. As I aged they got darker and became a steel gray. Now, in my thirties, I’ve noticed central heterochromia developing. I now have a ring of gold with brown flecks around my pupils. The gold and gray have now made it very confusing to tell what my eye color is. It can be gray, gray-blue, or gray-green now depending on lighting. I’m pretty sure my grandmother had the same exact development and dealt with cataracts later in life that required surgery. After the surgery, her eyes looked completely green. It was wild!
It’s funny that you’re an eye doctor and you have heterochromia
I have sectoral heterochromia and I discovered it when I was 15-16 , im pretty blind to find this out so late how ironic, there’s probably million things I don’t know about myself!!
I have green eyes and a section of brown in my right eye , really grateful to have cool eyes 😁
I have a central heterochromia. I asked my eye doctor what was my eye color. He said blue, but my eyes have a brown color around the iris and blue at the edges. Both my parents were blue eyed. My son also has the condition.
Hello! I was born with segmental hetachromia brown eyes, with a green segment....my daughter also has this mutation,,,,only reverse colors... Green eyes with a brown segment... My mom had green eyes, my father had brown.... I find this super unique
That is super unique!
I have heterochromia! Partial in each eye. Left eye is half blue, half green. Right eye is half green, half brown!
Thank you for this video
Didn't know how special my eyes were
I have central in both eyes and also a sectoral in just my left
Get told all the time that my look either beautiful or scary
My son has Heterochromia. He’s had since he was born. He has one brown eye, and one green. And in the green eye there’s a little bit of brown. We live in Australia.
My son was born with partial heterochromia in his left eye I find it so beautiful, his eyes are a striking bright blue with a brown spot in it and people have noticed it on the street a few times and found it cool
I have central heterochromia, I have blue green and Amber gold coloured eyes, this developed as a child, my sister has the same eyes as me and my niece has partial heterochromia. So there must be a genetic thing in my family.
I'm indian, I have heterochromia since birth, my one eye is light brown and one is dark brown. But never really observed it (due to little difference) until one of my friend said it me since then I wondered why my eyes are like this recently got to know about this, in more light my light brown eye looks so good and i love it so much😅 I'm curious to know whether do you also have heterochromia Or did you wear lenses for the video?
I have central heterochromia, a reddish brown in the middle then mixtures of blue/green and a dark grey ring around the outter edge of the eye that developed in my early adulthood.
I have one green eye and one hazel eye, didn't know it had a medical name!
I was definitely born with Central Heterochromia eyes. There have been times where one of my eyes will appear to be a totally different color than the other. So much so that one time in Highschool a big guy picked me up to announce to the entire School how cool my eyes were, haha.... Why do my eyes do this?
Some people just have cool eyes like that. That's awesome!
Super missed out on the sarah mcdaniel thumbnail
You're right
One blue eye and one green huh? That’s pretty freaking cool!
Hi! I have central heterochromia. Both of my parents did as well.
My eyes change colors individually so one moment they’re both yellow the next they’re blue and green. But when they are different colors they are very similar. They used to just be blue and become green in the sunlight.
I always thought I had green eyes, but then I saw my eyes 100 times closer at a picture and I have central and partial heterochromia. So I have blue and Brown eyes.
I've got central heterochromia for all my life except for when i was a newborn. Back then, my iris was dark, which is unusual for caucasian babies. Anyways, I always thought heterochromia is so cool and learning that central heterochromia is a thing is really thrilling.
I have heterochromia as well, it isn't noticeable (I think) cuz most people doesn't see it unless I'm in a area really bright. I don't really like having it, especially when I look into the mirror.
No one in my family has any eye problems (expect my dad recently got glaucoma), they all have brown eyes because they're east asian, however my left eye is mostly green with few brown freckles and my right eye is full brown. I wasn't born with heterochromia, or had any eye injuries, I didn't even know I had it until my brother told me. Even the doctors were like "wow you're so special" and thing is they don't even know how I got this. They think its genetic mutation but they said they're not sure. And I hate going to the hospital to get my eyes check out and they put weird liquids in my eye. So much lightttt and painful! I can't wear contact lenses cuz I'm too young and its expensive :(
That is interesting. Why don't you like having it?
I just interested in this topic. Both my eyes are chocolate brown. They’re dark brown. If you’re born with this condition don’t be irritated of it, just makes you even more unique. Be boring if we were all the same.
All eyes are beautiful! And beauty is in the eye of the beholder! 😉
I have Central Heterochromia and I never knew that it was heterochromia or even rare lol
i was born with central heterochromia. my inner rings are amber and my outter rings are blue. my oldest daughter was born with it too but her inner rings are a pale grey and her outter rings are dark blue.
I have three forms of heterochromia, on half of my left eye I have pure sky blue and on the other side it's a darker blue with even darker blue blobs and on my right eye I have a pie of hazel. on all the darker bits of my blue I have a green ring-ish thing around my pupils. :)
Wow! that sounds extremely rare.
I have partial heterochromia in my right eye. Almost half of the lower part is green, and the rest of it and my left eye is brown, but my mother's sister has it too, but her heterochromia is complete. I don't remeber if it's her left or right eye, but one of them is brown, and the other is green. And I found out about her having just a few years ago. I find it curious that someone so close to me in my family has it too, and I'm wondering how rare it is.
I have central heterochromia, blue with green and brown around the pupil. I always wondered where I got my eye colour from as my immediate family either had pure blue or hazel. Recently saw some of my cousins on my biological father’s side and they all had it just like me.
Hi, I have Heterochromia in both eyes. My left eye is a yin jang of orange brown & green, my right eye is a bluer green with a fourth pie piece of orange brown. The right eye also has rounds of central Heterochromia with yellow coming from the middle.
I have central heterochromia with a green sunburst on blue Grey edges. My daughter has hazel eyes with a section of blue in her right eye.
Yup. If I could post a photo I would. Hazel eyes but with splotches of brown around the center of my left eye.
My son has it, blue and brown eyes, it's especially stunning in bright light, when his pupils are contracted, so all you really see is the blue and brown
i think i have it! my right eye is more blue and my left eye is more green. my left pupil is also slightly bigger than the right one.
I just gave birth to identical twins a month ago, and one of them developed "sectoral heterochromia" I'm not really sure because he didn't get checked yet, but one of his eyes has a gray pigment at the lower part of his iris. The twins both have dark brown eyes.
I have it,
one brown and one mostly green with a bit of brown in the middle
I have one blue (slowly adding green to middle) and one that is 60% dark brown and I would say hazel/blue mix for the other 40%
