Poll: What colour are your eyes?

[alias_sqbr]

[Poll #1479723]

Inspired by the fact that like 90% of regency romance heroines seem to have "gray eyes", and thinking about all the fantasy characters with gold or violet eyes. I thought it would be fun to compare with a relatively random sample of real people :)

EDIT: I forgot black, white, and "I don't have any eyes". Apologies to anyone these options apply to!

heh, it says "visually, gray eyes often tend to appear to change between the shades of blue, green and gray". i guess my eyes are grey, then! ;)

It's a much more popular answer than I was expecting!

This describes my eyes pretty accurately. Although they do have odd flecks of yellow (I'd hesitate to describe them as gold ;-) in them.

If I wear a blue or green t-shirt people tend to say "wow your eyes look blue / green today" with a surprising degree of predictability.

me too! (blue/grey with gold flecks)

ha, yes, this describes the exciting life of my eyes quite accurately. they also have a touch of yellow - a thin ring around the iris.

Mine certainly do this, they go between dull blue/grey to vivid blue. I guess it depends on misc things like blood flow and diet. Also I think maybe it depends what colour I'm wearing, because our brains like to play visual tricks on us (stupid brains, not handling absolutes).
