9. Mine are usually green, but my wife says they change color.
She says that whatever I am wearing, my eyes seem to reflect that color. We were eating dinner one night and my sister-in-law said to my wife, "My God you are absolutely right -- I can see his eyes change color!"

48. you must have hazel eyes.
mine do it too. Some days they look more on the green side, sometimes blue, others brown. Alot depends on what I'm wearing. But I do believe thats a characteristic of hazel eyes.

40. I've always considered them hazel
green with lots of gold, and some brown flecks. Maybe they're not after all, considering the aforementioned definition.

44. depends
Usually they are dark brown. However, when I am really pissed off, they turn jet black! I look like I only have pupils. People never believe me until they see me really angry and, without fail, the first time the see it, jump back because my eyes are in fact black as night! I wish I could do it without getting angry, because it is a great way to freak people out!

47. Well, my family calls me 'Rainbow Eyes', if that's any indication...
Around the pupil, I have a ring of light brown. Then there is a ring of dark blue, and a small ring of green on the outside. The blue and green tend to change depending on what I'm wearing, but the brown is always there.

*shrug* I'm such a freak. If I had a digital camera, I'd try to post a picture.

52. My Eyes
I answered brown. The definition of hazel in my Oxford dictionary is greenish brown. This makes me wonder if my eyes are really hazel. They do have a sort of olive green tint to them, especially when I wear certain colors. They each have a single ring outlining them. I can't tell what color the rings are. They look sort of gray.

you seem them as brown/hazel.

I've been told my eyes are both blue and brown( "genetically mixed eyes). If someone can explain that one to me, I'd appreciate it. :)
