Can the iris of the eye change colors (lighter- brown to blue) as you get older? much older? ages 60-80s?

It's happening to my mum. It's not all blue, the outer parts are blue and are slowly moving in covering the whole eye. She thought it was cataract, but the doctor confirmed her eyes were changing colour.

Reply:yeh. mine changed.my mother has two different colors. wow, huh? WHAT UPS WITH THAT? talk about diversification. I like that word because it sounds so insane to me. like lets consider diversifying the Brooklyn zoo. put the elephants, snakes, gorillas, tigers and lions and the crocks all in one big cage and see how they adjust. damn these leaders in congress and their educated fools who help keep them sober and on time for meetings, come up with this BS they dream up in universities like Harvard and such. everybody knows it. they should be handled like the Spanish Inquisition. rat cages on their heads, stretching racks, etc. need hundreds and hundreds of hangmen and axemen for chopping those mixed up evil minded or just doofus educated fools. no instincts. no commons sense. put them in with the Brooklyn zoo experiment i suggested. they will have the kind of diversification they desire. well, until a crocodile bites his *** and a lion starts chewing on his neck. people are incredibly overrated. they overrate themselves. phooey!
Reply:definately yes. my grandma had blue eyes but when she got around 80 or so her eyes turned green
Reply:I think so because i know this guy who has blue iris but theres a brown outline. i thought he wore contacts but he doesnt
Reply:Hmmm I didn't know that happened. I do know that my friend's hazel eyes turn gorgeous green when she cries.
Reply:Yes. As you age the iris can change. As I had one brown eye and one blue eye when I was younger I have observed this. They are not as different as they once were, and the blue can be described as hazel now. They still are different colours though.
Reply:The color of iris is a genetic cause , i mean it comes from the time of newly born period as like the color of your skin. Their is no clinical or medical/phathological cause for major change of color of iris.. so it shouldn't be legal to comment from only personal experience . But u know each and every organ of humanbody becomes affected (cell by cell) through aging. so from this viewpoint ...there can be some sign of aging in eyes , (in cornias,iris,.... red spots appears in conjunctiva..etc.) But major changes in eye appearance comes if any body has cataracts...glucoma..trachoma..persistan... eye irritation..blephrites.. major eye injuries..etc.



as like any other organs eyes (iris. conjuctiva..etc.) can be kept fit by taking care, eating habit ( taking foods with sufficiant vit.A , beta carotins, anti-oxidants..etc...) so that aging cann't change much of your beautiful eyes.



so take care of your eyes.

thanks mem.
