Grey with flecks of hazel/ brown.

StarlingsInSummer · 28/08/2019 12:46

The top one is greeny-blue. The bottom one is blue.

NoDontLookAtMeImShy · 28/08/2019 12:46

Blue with yellow bits.

Mine are exactly the same.

Coulddowithanap · 28/08/2019 12:47

Both look blue to me.

bobstersmum · 28/08/2019 12:47

Without being too technical they are just blue eyes!

AryaStarkWolf · 28/08/2019 12:47

I'd probably say blue

FineWordsForAPorcupine · 28/08/2019 12:49

Sort of bluey green grey with bits of brown?

I expect how they look depends on what the light is like, how the eye-owner is health wise, how dilated the pupil is, etc.

Feel free to describe them however you'd like, OP :)

DoomsdayCult · 28/08/2019 12:49

Light blue eyes with hazel flecks.

CheshireChat · 28/08/2019 12:50

Red, you need some eye drops Wink.

FineWordsForAPorcupine · 28/08/2019 12:52

... But yes, human eyes are basically either blue or brown. Anything else (violet, Hazel, green, etc) is just being poetic.

Nautiloid · 28/08/2019 12:52

Blue at a basic level but describe them how you like. Greenish blue. Hazel flecks etc.
I say my eyes are brown but in fact they are the same colour as my hair, auburn! Or as my brother described them as a teen 'the exact colour as a cow's eyes. And lopsided'. Grin

planetlondon · 28/08/2019 12:54

Grey

PutyourtoponTrevor · 28/08/2019 12:55

They are both definitely blue flecked with brown and yellow

minipie · 28/08/2019 12:58

Just like mine OP. Technically blue/grey with flecks of yellow/brown but the overall impression is of greeny blue.

I just say my eyes are blue.

BettySwollocksandaCrustyRack · 28/08/2019 12:59

Grey!

WhoArtinHeaven · 28/08/2019 13:00

Damn, I didn't mean to post this in AIBU (as it's clearly not)! Blush

So I shall change it to AIBU to say these eyes are blue?

Grey.

beanaseireann · 28/08/2019 13:01

Blue/ Green/ Grey one with a hazel fleck

Circe32 · 28/08/2019 13:01

Blue

WhoArtinHeaven · 28/08/2019 13:05

@CheshireChat yes I have quite "veiny" eyes naturally, always have... but I haven't slept more than four hours a night since DC2 was born at the start of the year, so they are looking particularly dreadful. Sad

Think yourself lucky you can't see the rest of me!

Heterochromatic

(These threads always are..)

Sagradafamiliar · 28/08/2019 13:12

They look changeable, like mine. Like moodstones for eyeballs

OneStepSideways · 28/08/2019 13:17

Grey-blue with a touch of hazel

flumpybear · 28/08/2019 13:19

Sometimes you need a bit more distance to tell the colour of eyes as this close you can see too much detail - further away an eye colour starts to take over

Personally I'd say grey/blue

Fancyseeingyouhere · 28/08/2019 13:23

Blue
