What color are your eyes? What color do you wish they were?
Mine are hazel. A mix of gold, green, and brown. I wish they were bright green, although I like the color they are.

2. Light blue
I like them as they are - my only wish is that they would not turn so vividly demon red in photos.

4. Mine are blue, and I'm very happy with that
If I wished they were any other color, it'd be brown, but the rest of me would have to be brown too (my husband is Pakistani, and I think the women are so exotically beautiful).

6. I'd like to have either really blue or really green eyes
The colour of mine is really kind of hard to determine. Dark blue/gray rim, blue/green combo for most of the eye, a touch of hazel by the pupil. They don't look as weird as they sound.

11. Funny - if you had asked me to tell you what your eye color was...
...I would have said brown. Which is one of my fave eye colors (check pics of my kid to see why).

14. It depends what I wear
I've had people looking right at me unable to pick a colour. I usually say green.

13. My eyes change color. If I wear green then they are much more green
than usual. If I tear up or if my eyes are red and irritated, they also turn bright green. If the sun shines in them, they are again green. But normally, they are hazel.

12. Light blue.
They look very blue in photos. Sometimes they look gray-blue in person. I had a friend in high school who had huge aqaumarine eyes with long brown lashes. Beautiful! I wish my lashes and brows were darker. They are pale blonde. Mascara and eyebrow powder bring out the color of my eyes. I'm too lazy to do makeup everyday though.

They changed as I got older.

27. Very, very dark blue
or as I like to think of them, "steel blue" (in the same way I like to think of the gray streak in my hair as "silver"). :P

I wish they could be the color they look when I wear a dark or medium-blue shirt. They look brighter then.

For some reason, I'm one of the few people who like brown eyes, dark hair better than blue eyes and blonde hair. That's just me. :shrug:

I've had total strangers comment on the blueness of my eyes, and my wife loves them. I like them as they are.

46. Mine are green
But I wish they were a deeper green.

My old (hard) contacts (that weren't colored, btw) made them a very deep forest green.

I switched to soft contacts a couple of years ago (also uncolored). These make my eyes look a much paler shade of green.

My natural color is somewhere in between.

I wouldn't really care so much except I preferred the darker green.
