[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve heard of people claiming their blood type changed. I think most are simply cases of people misremembering or not knowing in the first place but thinking they do. My own husband was told by his parents that he was O- but found out that he’s actually O+. Your blood type doesn’t randomly change. It is genetic. It stays the same throughout your life like your eye color.[/quote] Well your eye color definitely changes throughout life and not just from cataracts. Babies often have blueish or violet eye colors that turn hazel. And hazel eyed people’s eye colors change with their mood - if normally brownish they turn amber or green when they get mad or if normally green they turn blue when they get upset. [/quote] They can change from a lighter color to a darker color in infants and toddlers because babies do not produce much melanin when they’re first born. [b]That’s why a lot of babies are born with blue eyes that later turn brown (for example). In those babies, it’s not really changing though because their eyes were always going to be brown based on their genetics. Brown is always their actual eye color that their genetics coded for.[/b] Once you have your final eye color, it does not truly change (unless you have some sort of medical condition). It’s simply an optical illusion.[/quote] That’s why I’ve always thought mothers were weird for asking how they can prevent their baby’s eyes from becoming darker (which I see often on mom forums). If their genes/alleles determine their eyes are going to be brown, then they’re going to be brown. You can’t stop it. The same applies to skin color and hair color.[/quote] I’ll never understand the societal obsession with non-brown eyes. I have always loved medium to dark brown eyes (the type that are pure brown with no yellow or green hue or any other color). The darker the brown, the better. My eyes are hazel (a mix of light brown, green, and yellowish). I’ve never liked the color. I’m just grateful that my eyes function properly, though. The color of them is just a superficial thing.[/quote]
