Some days my eyes get so bright, people ask me if I'm wearing fake contacts. My eyes are very sensitive to light. I think that is one of the reasons I prefer grey, darker days. At times they become deep blue, but it all depends on my mood or weather. It's actually quite weird. Anyways, why would my eyes be so sensitive in Sun light? I know other people who have green, brown, hazel, and even blue who do not have this problem. I have never met anyone with the type of blue eyes I have, however. They get extremelely bright and piercing. I have done some searches on it, but never really came up with a logical explanation. If I shut my eyes, I can alomost see everything around me and when it is dark, I can still see (not 100%), even without my contacts. I'm somewhat baffled by this.
Quoting: Vulcan4 The colored part of the eye is called the iris and the darker pigmentation is due to concentrations of melanoma. People with brown eyes have more melanoma in there iris compared to people with blue or even green colored irises. Originally, people with darker colored eyes were mostly found the central and southern parts of the world, particularly in the tropics, where the days are long and bright. The darker color absorbs light keeping light out of the eyes so as to see better in the bright days. In northern climes, where days are short and the light low people mostly have lighter colored eyes. The lighter color REFLECTS light into the eyes for better low light vision. MELANIN! (not melanoma, which is a type of skin cancer)
