Eye-color

Eye Color

Human eye-color exists on a continuum from the lightest shades of blue to the darkest shades of brown or black. The color range is largely genetically determined by a combination of two forms of melanin produced by melanocytes of the iris.

Your result:

Very likely blue eyes (probabilities - 87% blue, 12% green and 1% brown)



Based on the deCODEme Genetic test for the genetic variant (rs12913832) associated with eye color, your results are: (highlighted in green)

  • * The percentages reported in this table refer to the probabilities that your eye color is either brown, blue or green, not the mixture of colors in your eyes.
  • Results are partly based on these three article 1, 2 and 3.
