30 surprising hazel eyes facts you would have NEVER guessed!

Only 5% of people are born with hazel eyes, making them extremely uncommon. With only green eyes (2%) and grey eyes (1%) topping hazel for the most rare eye color, it’s fascinating how few individuals have this eye color.

I love my hazel eyes because they are constantly changing color all day. They never seem to have a brown ring, usually more on the greenish side with changing flecks of red, gold, and greens. My favorite is when I spend some time around the ocean, my eyes turn almost a light turquoise color like the sea. Rock your hazel eyes!

I have Hazel eyes green/gold but navy blue ring around. People have always commented on my green eyes.

Not sure if all this in the video is just a generalization, but as a hazel eyed person, it's seems to be pretty accurate to me, personally. Mine are light green with gold around the iris and I have flecks of brown in them. My eyes are the first thing people notice & comment on, which feels awkward, but I know they mean well. I'm a shy person who doesn't like a lot of attention. I'm a loner type, but married to a gorgeous startling green eyed, gentle man, yet both of our children have dark brown eyes.

My eyes are hazel and the light sensitivity part is very true.

My eyes are sometimes called green, other times hazel. They're green with a slight yellowish colour around the pupil. I have a couple of small brown dots in that yellow ring. Does that make them green or hazel? Both colours run in my immediate family.

My eyes are green and my wife says sometimes they turn blue. It depends on the light and what color shirt I wear . I too have a lot of the same traits listed here. Hello fellow hazel eyed and green eyed beings!

My hazel eyes change color depending on the color top I am wearing especially green and black. Also, I have noticed that some people kinda stare at my eyes if I look at them. At first I thought it was strange until I read about people with hazel or green eyes.

My father had blue eyes, my mother brown. I have jade-green with a ‘star’ of brown around the pupil. I knew nothing of any of the info presented here until an ophthalmologist remarked on the rarity of my eye color. I do have a positive outlook, and I have always been approachable and independent-minded! Who knew?

My eyes are Hazel and they change from really light to really dark like mood rings. The lighting and colors I wear are a huge factor as well.
There's a hint of green if you look closely. I love my eyes. I get tons of compliments.

Ps
I'm also I'm also a left handed cancer.

Found that most of this did apply to me. Except I have a very high tolerance to pain. When I am not feeling well my eyes are more green. In fact the sicker I am the more green. I couldn’t work out why my eyes changed colour but seems it’s normal for hazel eyes.

I like the bit about hazel eyes changing colour according to the environment. I've been pregnant three times with a lot of morning sickness which gave me time to notice that if I'd been vomiting, my eyes would turn extremely green directly after. Fun fact!

[sjmullen]

I was born with brown eyes, but they slowly turned hazel in my twenties, and get more hazel as I age.

[annalevenson]

Mine change colour, as did my dad’s. Depends on moods too

[jenc]

I have hazel eyes that are golden brown but depending on the light or what I'm wearing they can turn a pretty olive green

[anastasiar]

I have hazel eyes, I can say this is a very accurate description. Except I was born with brown eyes, I am not sure when they change color but around the age of 13 my eyes appear Hazel in pictures. Now in my 40s they appear green.

[davidponseigo]

I have hazel eyes but I am anything but graceful.

[VERONADUFFY]

My hazel eyes appear to be more brown in winter and more green in summer. 👀
