Where did people with green eyes come from? Green eyes: characteristics of women and men
Eye color in people plays one of the most important roles in the formation of both their character and external data. Often makeup, clothes, jewelry are selected under the eyes. From this in the future depends on the style of a person. Also, taking into account the shade of the iris that we see in the interlocutor, we can form a certain opinion about him. So, a rare eye color in people is remembered much better than some very common one. Well, now we will look at the rating of the rarest and most common shades of the iris and find out what effect it has on the character of the individual.
Most common shade
As it turned out, brown eye color is the most popular on the planet. This tone of the iris can boast of the inhabitants of all the southern countries of the African and American continents, as well as many southern Europeans, eastern races and most of the Slavs. Doctors claim that melanin gives such a shade to people's eyes, which performs not only a coloring function, but also a protective one. For those who have brown eyes, it is easier to look at the sunlight or at the whiteness of the snowy deserts. There is such a version that previously all people on the planet were the owners of brown eyes. However, over time, in the organisms of those individuals who lived far from sunny conditions, the melanin content in the body decreased sharply, due to which the iris also changed its color.
The influence of brown eyes on character
As it turned out, the brown color of the eyes of people tells us that they are pleasant in communication, sociable, kind and at the same time ardent. They are excellent storytellers, but the listeners of them, alas, are useless. Brown-eyed people are slightly selfish, but they are always open and generous to their loved ones. Research shows that brown-eyed people have the most pleasing facial features. Most people, based on their own taste, choose their companions with just such a tone of the iris, and this happens on a subconscious level.
A popular shade for the inhabitants of the North
Very often in the north of Russia and Europe can be found in people's eyes. It is this mix that is very popular, but if we see eyes of a clearly gray or clearly green tone, then this is already a rarity. Well, from a medical point of view, this shade is characteristic of the iris due to the fact that the vessels that are in it have a bluish color. At the same time, a small fraction of melanin gets there, which cannot color the eye in a brown or black tone, but can make it darker and give it a steel tint. As a result, we get chameleon eyes, the shade of which changes depending on the various processes taking place in the body.
The nature of such people
People who have gray-green eyes are quick-tempered and slightly brash by nature. However, this aggressiveness is only an external quality, and inside such individuals are always gentle, subject to the opinions of others and tend to accept all the suffering that falls on their age. A remarkable feature of such people can be considered the fact that they are able to live with a person whom they themselves do not love, but at the same time they feel something high in relation to themselves. In general, such an iridescent shade of the iris looks very attractive, as the photo shows us. Eye color goes well with clothes of any tones and harmonizes mainly with dark shades in makeup.
Blue-eyed: on the verge
What does it mean? Today, eyes are not considered a rarity, but you will not meet them at every step either. The iris can have such a shade due to the low content of melanin in the body. In this case, the red color of the vessels that make up the eyeball, due to its low frequency, is absorbed by blue, which is high frequency. Many capillaries that are near the surface can be painted in it. These vessels cover the fibers of the iris, which have their own individual density. If it is large, then we get blue eyes. The lower the density, the more saturated and dark the shade of the iris becomes.
Blue-eyed personality traits
If you meet blue or blue eyes in people, be sure that you are real creators or geniuses who are prone to constant mood swings. Often, such individuals are very different from the general mass both in character and in natural data. They are characterized by contradictions, they can begin to feel sad in the midst of fun. Such people prefer eternal change to monotonous routine, they are fickle in their decisions and choices. However, behind all this confusion there can be sentimentality, sensitivity, the ability to truly love and give everything for the sake of a dear person.
Black eyes….
As noted above, the brown tone of the iris is a very common phenomenon. But it’s a completely different matter - these are black tones. The color of the eye, which completely merges with the pupil, is a very rare phenomenon, especially in people. Most often, black-eyed people can be found among Negroids, Mongoloids, and very rarely among mestizos. From a medical point of view, the resinous shade of the iris is due to the maximum content of melanin, which completely absorbs light.
Black-eyed character traits
What is so remarkable, from the point of view of psychology, people whose irises are black possess? An eye color that mimics resin or even shimmers blue means complete self-confidence and self-confidence. Such personalities are always stable, they make excellent leaders. In the company, they are the soul, the person that everyone aspires to. In life, such people are monogamous. They do not waste themselves on unnecessary relationships, but prefer to choose one partner to whom they will be faithful for all their years.
Amber eyes and the nature of their owner
The iris is an interpretation of hazel. However, unlike him, amber eyes that resemble wolf eyes are extremely rare. Their shade balances on the verge of light and dark, they often look transparent, and at the same time the color is very saturated. It is amazing, but individuals who are the owners of such eyes love loneliness. They often dream, hover in the clouds, but at the same time they always do their job conscientiously. People with amber eyes will not mislead those around them - everything is always very clear with them.
Red look... does it happen?
Many people are sure that you can only see the red iris in a retouched photo. Such an eye color actually exists, and it is characteristic of the notorious albinos. In the organisms of such people, melanin is completely absent. For this reason, the iris does not stain in any of the tones, and vessels and the intercellular matrix appear through it, which gives a rich tone. As a rule, such irises are always combined with colorless hair, eyebrows and eyelashes, as well as literally transparent skin. In some cases, if there is at least a small fraction of melanin in the body, it enters the ocular stroma. It, in turn, becomes bluish, and the mixture of these two colors (blue and red) gives the eyes a purple or lilac tint.
Hello dear readers and just random visitors to my blog! Today we will touch on a topic that I have never touched on before. And all because I really like to read foreign media. And today, on one American portal, I found out for myself very interesting facts about eye color, and more specifically green.
From the Inquisition to Modernity
It is enough to look into the eyes of a person once to feel whether we like them or not. The main role in this is played by their color. People with green eyes have always been a source of attraction.
Many people like green eyes more than brown. And this is not surprising, according to statistics, people with green eyes around the world are about 4%, while people with brown eyes are about 90%. Why are there so few green-eyed in nature?
Even in the Middle Ages, green eyes were associated with sorcerers and witches. Hence the conclusions of scientists: the reason for this percentage is hidden in the Inquisition. Green-eyed women were considered witches and to fight their magnetism they were ruthlessly burned at the stake. Yes, and men were wary of such beauties, bypassing them so as not to fall into their witchcraft spells.
Today the situation has changed, and the male sex, oh, how he loves such eyes. And if you are a man, then you have a direct road to Holland or Iceland. Here you will find the largest number of green-eyed people on the planet - as much as 80% of the population. The remaining 20% falls, oddly enough, on the inhabitants of Turkey.
Those eyes are opposite...
To be honest, I myself have green eyes. True, depending on the lighting, they sometimes appear gray-green. Of course, against the background of my mother's eyes, mine fade.
Her eyes are emerald green, exactly like those of Angelica, the main character of the novel of the same name, which was written by the married couple Anne and Serge Golon. In the film version, the main character, played by French actress Michelle Monsieur, has brown eyes. True, with the help of competent makeup, they are not so noticeable. 
However, no matter how many times we watch this movie, I constantly hear from my mother: “Angelica has no eyes.” Well, where to go if at that time colored contact lenses had not yet been invented. Don't look for another actress. Although, ironically, the beautiful Michelle is a burning brunette by nature. And the unique on-screen blonde Angelica is the result of a long work of hair stylists.
Well, let's not get distracted by the details, but let's move on to specific facts that were published on the pages of The Huffington Post informational online publication:
What are green eyes capable of?
We are all different from birth. However, there are qualities that are inherent in all green-eyed. Firstly, we (I’m still a green-eyed person) are not conflicts and calmly admit that we are wrong. Harmony is very important for us, both in the soul and around us. We are moderately selfish, but at the same time very demanding of others.
Green-eyed people are very hardworking and selfless people. They love their friends and family very much. Positive qualities include a trait that helps us to adequately survive both victory and defeat.
People with green eyes are very successful, they tend to listen and empathize. It is worth noting that in ancient times it was believed that the green-eyed were under the power of the elements of water. They are moderately stubborn and assertive, achieving their goals step by step.
If we really are under the power of water, then it is not surprising that we are all so different. After all, water is also diverse: someone is petty, like a puddle, someone is mysterious, like a pool, someone is powerful, like an ocean. And after all, only one thing unites us - the color of the eyes.
Well, it's time to sum it up. Modern science is not yet able to artificially change the color of the eyes of people (although no one has canceled colored lenses). But in the near future, everything can change and then, the percentage of people with green eyes will double, or even more. Today, we can only wait for the onset of this scientific progress.
That's all! I wish you all beautiful eyes in the reflection in the mirror!
I look forward to your comments and feedback. Bye everyone!
Always yours, Anna Tikhomirova

One of the first features that attract us to a person is his eyes, and especially the color of his eyes. Did you know which eye color is considered the rarest, or why eyes can be red? Here are some interesting facts about human eye color.
The fact that brown eyes are the most common eye color
Brown eye color is the most common eye color in the world, except for the Baltic countries. It is the result of the presence of a large amount of melanin in the iris, due to which a lot of light is absorbed. People with very high concentrations of melanin may look like they have black eyes.
Blue eyes are a genetic mutation
All people with blue eyes have one common ancestor. Scientists have traced the genetic mutation that led to the appearance of blue eyes and established the fact that it appeared 6000 - 10000 years ago. Until that time, there were no blue-eyed people.
Most people with blue eyes are in the Baltic countries and the Nordic countries. In Estonia, 99 percent of people have blue eyes.
Yellow eyes - wolf eyes
Yellow or amber eyes have a golden, tan, or copper tint and are the result of the presence of the lipochrome pigment, which is also found in green eyes. Yellow eye color is also called "wolf eyes", as this rare eye color common among animals such as wolves, domestic cats, owls, eagles, pigeons and fish.
The fact that green eyes are the rarest
Only 1-2% of people in the world have green eyes. Pure green eye color (which should not be confused with marsh color) is a very rare eye color, as it is often eradicated from the family by the dominant brown eye gene. In Iceland and Holland, green eyes are most common in women.
The fact that one person can have eyes of different colors
Heterochromia is a phenomenon in which one person can have a different eye color.. It is caused by an excess or deficiency of melanin and is the result of a genetic mutation, disease, or injury.
With complete heterochromia, a person has two different colors of the iris, for example, one eye is brown, the other is blue. With partial heterochromia, the iris is divided into two parts.
Red eyes
Red eyes often found in albinos. Since they have almost no melanin, their iris is transparent but looks red because of the blood vessels.
Fact about eye color change
Eye color can change over the course of a person's life. African Americans, Hispanics, and Asians are usually born with dark eyes that rarely change. Most Caucasian children are born with light-colored eyes: blue or blue. But over time, as the child develops, the cells of the iris of the eye begin to produce more melanin pigment. Usually, baby's eye color changes by one year, but it can be established later by the 3rd, and less often by 10-12 years.
What eye color will the child have?
The formation of eye color is a complex process that is genetically determined. There are many combinations of genes that we get from both parents that determine the eye color you will have. Here is the most simplified scheme that will help you find out the color of the eyes of the unborn child.
