eyes

What color eyes do you guys have?

me blue,

please respond

 

[kantor1003]

blue, and? I don't get this

 

[kamari rised]

sorry i might sound weird for saying this, but for some reason i think theirs a difference between eyes, like.... blue eyes have different perception than people with brown eyes, i was just curious, and it was on my mind lol.

 

[Ex-User (5841)]

Brown.

The only difference should be that blue eyes see better in the dark and brown better in strong sunlight. Any differences in perception based on eye pigmentation would be offset by the optic lobe's interpretation of the electronic signals associated with characteristics of vision, i.e. color, depth, shade, complexity, etc.

for some reason I feel like every person I met with blue eyes are more consciencious than people with brown eyes, I guess it's cause everytime I see a person with blue eyes this topic comes to mind, I definitly have great nighttime vision, daytime vision is very bright... I also noticed alot of people with blue eyes, never really have dilated pupils, unless they're on something. just my thoughts.

 

[Cavallier]

Dark blue

I'm just posting because we need some avatars up in this.

Everything you mentioned is in line with the biology of eye pigment (blue reflects more, so the need for dilation is minimal). You're on the right track.

Dark blue

Epistatic polygenetic incomplete dominance ftw.

 

[Dapper Dan]

Green with a little brown in there.

 

[snafupants]

Like a VU song, pale blue eyes. Can we make out now?

 

[GYX_Kid]

hazel.

Does this mean Cav's eyes are rare? I wantz!!

Spoiler

I have boring.. dark brown eyes.

 

[EyeSeeCold]

brown

I have boring.. dark brown eyes.

Cav's eyes sound like the standard recessive allele (blue) with a bunch of linked traits expressed in various ways to make them dark, explained in clusterfuck/string-of-random-factors-that-could-be-at-play form.

You have the standard dominant allele, but if you think that's boring you're not looking close enough:

For the record, when googling for pictures of brown eyes, use the term in plural form, even if you only want a picture of one.....

 

[MissQuote]

My eyes are grey with green tones.

 

[warryer]

also dark blue

 

[ObliviousGenius]

Dark brown, the kind of dark brown that looks black most of the time.

I remember reading a good while ago about a Highly Sensitive Person, and how they process data much deeper due to .... i think it's from light stimuli, (not 100% sure) but since people with blue eyes are more sensitive to light, could that mean we actually do have a different thought process compared to brown eye people. (just a theory i guess but im curious on your guy's thoughts). I might have to read up on some stuff in a bit and post some link's and articles.

Same here.

 

[Akuma]

My eyes are a mixture of brown and blue (most people mistaken them for green).
Does that mean my eyesight is mediocre at both night and day?

 

[Cheeseumpuffs]

Sometimes they look blue sometimes they look green. I usually just say grey when asked.

 

[Puffy]

I have green eyes, how does this differ to brown and blue?

 

[AkaruiRain]

Brown!

They're really dark normally, but pretty deep once in the light. <3

 

[crippli]

I think people say they are blue. The numbers in RGB for the white is about 220, the iris about 90, and 30 for the pupil. Strangely the amount is similar for all R, G and B. Could be something with light, as 100 x 3 is grey.

Are you suggesting correlation between eyecolor and temperament? Because that's bull. If conscientiousness is a result of eye-sensitivity, then you're talking about physical, non-cognitive causes of personality.

If you're talking eyecolor and personality, then how about the fact that most blue-eyed people live in western countries and how western culture is far from conscientious, relative to other cultures. It doesn't make any sense. How conscientious are the Japanese and the Chinese as oppose to the Americans?

Conscientiousness is far too "multi-causal" to warrant zooming-in on eyecolor as a cause. There is a deep and complicated valley between physics and personality.

Also, this one could be pure opinion, but anything that involves natural science(specifically, biological related things) is not uniquely capable of influencing personality. That is, as long as we're talking about individuals in the same species.

bout that color. (it's an old picture, okay? i pluck now.)

still not sure what to call it. bluish-greenish-grayish with a little segment of brown. for my identification card's sanity, we just call it blue. so whatever.

between me and my boyfriend (who has brown eyes; he's also half korean) i would definitely be the "conscientious" one, but i would be inclined to call this a coincidence. see above.

 

[Crazythinker1]

Time to be the odd man out. I have one light, ice blue eye and one hazel eye with just a touch of blue in it.

Light sensitivity shouldn't have an impact on thought processes. Although different colored eyes see different variations of light intensity, the range of light intensity shouldn't differ between the two. If different eye colors were able to sense different colors on the visual spectrum (i.e. if blue eyes had different cone photoreceptors could see infrared like bees), it would make sense, but there shouldn't be a difference based on light intentisy alone.

@shoeless Squeee!! We have the same eyes - at least from this angle - I would call them green. Eye buddies 4 life Look at them roll... :P

 

[shoeless]

eye buddy HIGH FIVE!

yeah, sometimes they look greener or bluer depending on what i'm wearing and what the lighting is like. apparently when i was young they were pretty much just blue but i'm lead to believe that's a common occurrence.

Yea it is basically pure opinion, I guess I was making my own theory based upon multiple other theories. I should've said that earlier. Im bout to read more about it.

 

[Oedipus]

Blue with brown central heterochromia.

 

[kamari rised]

how do central heterochromia's form I just started realizing mine form like.. a year and half ago.

 

[DrSketchpad]

What color eyes do you guys have?

me blue,

please respond

blue also

 

[hurricanejane]

blue but then gets gold/brown right around the pupil
