The Truth about Blue Eyes #blueeyes #doctoreyehealth

Did you know that blue eyes are not really blue?
Contrary to popular belief, the blue color in eyes isn't actually due to the presence of blue pigments. Instead, it's a fascinating result of Rayleigh scattering, a phenomenon where shorter wavelengths of light, like blue, are scattered more effectively than longer wavelengths, such as red or yellow. The color of our eyes is determined by the amount and distribution of melanin in the iris, with blue eyes having less melanin than brown eyes. This scarcity of melanin allows more light to be scattered within the iris, creating the illusion of the color blue.
