Change the color of the eyes naturally.

Eye color is very dependent on genetic factors. That is why some people / nations from birth have brown, blue or even green eyes.

But this green eye is a rare eye color.

● Nature of eye color

Eye color is similar to a fingerprint.

Each person has unique and specific eye color. Eye color itself comes from a combination of genes that are passed down from generation to generation by mixing and adjusting genes, and more complicated than just 'dominant' or 'recessive'.

Because of that, eye color will be constant, even with increasing age. Even when a person's age increases, the color of his eyes will get brighter (the process is very slow).

● The process of color in the eyes

The color of the eye itself comes from the buildup of melanin.

Melanin is a pigment in the iris that causes the eyes to become colored. If someone does not have melanin, then his eyes will look clear.

For babies, for example. Newborn babies generally have faint eye colors, because babies do not have melanin.

Eye color in new babies will be seen when it is at least three months old, where melanin has developed. In contrast to the above, when more melanin is present, the eyes will be dark brown or black.

The melanin accumulation spectrum can be broadly divided into 3, namely:

1. The amount of melanin is small, the eyes will be blue

2. The amount of melanin is moderate, the eyes will be brownish red

3. The amount of melanin is a lot, the eyes will be brown

But in people who experience melanin disorders or disorders can indeed produce unique eye colors.

In albino people, their eyes do not have melanin. Because of this, the color of the albino eyes will tend to be pink or red, so the blood vessels can be seen. Whereas in people who experience Heterochromia abnormalities, the color of their eyes can differ from one another.

● Change eye color

Given the above - where the eye color is a genetic factor - can a person's eye color be changed?

The answer: can.

But what needs to be understood is that the color of one's eyes cannot be changed permanently (in a natural way). Eye color can be changed permanently only through eye surgery.

While eye surgery to change the color always has a negative impact that endangers eye health. Even using contact lenses is also a temporary change in eye color.

Actually a person's eye color can be changed naturally.

 But this natural eye color change cannot produce drastic eye color (eg brown to green), and is temporary.

Well, if you are still interested in changing your eye color naturally, you can follow the steps below:

1. Control emotions

Eye color turns out to be related to emotions.

Try to notice when someone is angry, sad or crying. Then naturally the color of his eyes will change.

The body hormone that controls emotions turns out to change the size of the pupil, making the color of the eye look brighter.

2. By changing the diet

Food consumed, one of its functions is to regulate the production of hormones in the body, including hotmon serotonin and norepinephrine, whose function can dilate or expand the pupil for a certain period of time, making the eyes appear darker or brighter.

Therefore, by changing the diet drastically - especially aimed at changing the amount of certain hormones, it can (slightly) change the color of the eye.

3. By doing herbal therapy

Some herbs have a cleansing effect on the eyes and alter certain levels of hormones in the body that affect eye color.

Herbs such as chamomile tea, licorice, and uvi-ursa which are consumed several times a day are believed to be able to cause illusions and slight changes in eye color.

Those are some ways to change eye color naturally.
