Heterochromia Iridium

(Different Colored Eyes)

Melanin concentrations make up eye color. Gene mutation can result in uneven distribution causing hyperpigmentation (more color) or hypopigmentation (less color).

Causes:

genetics
trauma
unknown disease complication
sleeping with your cousin

Heterochromia iridum is usually harmless and doesn’t need treatment.
