Hazel refers to the blend of blue and brown.

Almost everyone's eyes only have one pigment, brown.

Some people have a tiny bit of yellow pigment.

With no pigment, eyes look blue/gray for the same reason the sky looks blue, scattering.

Skattering means some colors are only seen from direct reflection angles (like in a mirror), and other colors (low wavelength blue colors) are scattered and seen at all angles.

The more pigment to have, The closer eyes looked fully dark brown.
With moderate pigment you have full light brown/amber eyes.

With less pigment, you don't have full of brown. You have partial brown, and partial blue/green. That's hazel.

With that yellow pigment, but no brown pigment, your eyes look green.
