Are all babies born with blue eyes? I don't think they are, but my friend said he was told that they were, so I wanted to find out whether they were or not, thanks
No, not all babies are born with blue eyes. The color of a baby's eyes is determined by the amount of melanin in the iris, which can vary from person to person. If a baby has a high amount of melanin, they may be born with brown, black, or hazel eyes. If a baby has a low amount of melanin, they may be born with blue, grey, or green eyes.
Babies' eye color can change during the first few months of life because the amount of melanin in their eyes can increase or decrease during this time. This is due to the production of melanin being stimulated by exposure to light. It is common for babies' eye color to change from blue to another color, such as brown, as they grow older.
No, a baby's eye color cannot be predicted before birth with complete accuracy. While certain genetic factors can play a role in determining eye color, it is not possible to accurately predict what color a baby's eyes will be before they are born. Eye color can also be influenced by environmental factors and can change during the first few months of life.
No, not all babies with blue eyes have the same shade of blue. The shade of blue in a baby's eyes can vary based on the amount of melanin present, as well as other genetic factors. Some babies may have bright blue eyes while others may have a darker, more muted shade of blue.
Yes, it is possible for babies to be born with different colored eyes, a condition known as heterochromia. This can occur due to genetic factors or as a result of injury or disease. However, it is rare for babies to be born with heterochromia and it is more commonly seen in adults.
