Does anyone else’s husband look at iFunny a lot? I think John gets notifications when new photos are added which doesn't help his OCD. I told him if he comes across really funny stuff at least share it! I think he might have once or twice, but last night he sent me something that inspired me to write this post about Madison’s eyes!
At two weeks old Madison’s eyes had already started to change. I first noticed that in her left eye it brown spreading through it. I had been waiting for her eyes to go brown since she was born because both mine and John's are brown. Both my mom and dad have browns eyes. Johns dad has brown too I think, and his moms are hazel. Anyways, after a few weeks there were no new changes to her eyes other than the one left eye that had changed partially brown. I looked at her eyes every day. I always thought it would be neat to have a blue eyed baby with some beautiful brown hair! Well, it looks like we got a little of both.
Today, at 7 months and 2 days old Madison has one solid blue eye and one blue/brown eye. By the way, we are totally ok with this. We just wanted her eyes to be healthy, which Dr. Smiley has confirmed! I also want her to be ok with it, but at this point I am not concerned this as much because eyes change throughout your whole life. Who knows that they will be like when she is old enough to care? If it were to bother her, she could wear contacts if she wanted to. Although, I hope she doesn't because it so very unique.
I recently googled information on having two different color eyes and what I found was a lot of celebrity pictures who had different color eyes. I discovered that it is called heterochromia. Heterochromia is differenation of color. There is complete, partial and central heterochromia. It is rare for humans to have complete heterochromia, but even more rare for humans to have partial heterochromia. Madison’s eye is partial heterochromia. (Please know, I googled this---I have not mentioned it to Dr. Smiley so who knows if heterochromia is a legit real thing though it appears to be, but I will next appointment.) It is mainly brown with only a chunk of blue. People have told us she has beautiful blue eyes. That blue eye just stands out more than the other and catches your eye first. I asked John the other day what color would Madison say her eyes are if they are still the same when she has to fill something out about them. It obviously has to be blue.
I just wanted to share what I found. I think it is interesting! I love the picture from iFunny that John sent me---a beautiful mutation!
