Title: Eye colour
Post by: Summer on December 13, 2014, 06:08:18 AM
hi all
A few months ago when I glanced in the mirror I thought my eye colour has got brighter but I shrugged it off thinking it was due to the light or something .
Over the last 3 weeks close friends have commented on my eyes saying they look brighter. One asked if I had contacts in.
Today when I was getting ready I was like OMG my eye colour has definitely got deeper & brighter . Before hrt they were light blue now they are deep bright blue.
Has anyone had this happen to them?
Lol I would definitely swap brighter eyes for say other changes ie wider hips[emoji33]

Oh yes. I gave a seminar and one of the audience was a girl I used to employ. She came up and congratulated me and then said 'you no longer have the pain in your eyes'

Oh we twinkle like stars!

Does HRT really affect eye color? I adore my nice dark chocolate eyes.  :(

That's pretty cool. Do any of you that have noticed a difference remember if you had differently colored eyes as a child?

I used to have blue eyes and blonde hair, and as I aged my hair turned brown and my eyes turned gray/blue/green/something. After reading this thread I'm wondering if HRT would change any of that.

Yes, indeed !

My skin was lighter as a child, and my hair was dinner and straight and light brown, and my eyes were hazel greenish.

Then, the evil testosterone change my eyes to light brown, my hair to wavy dark brown, and my skin thickened and become much darker...

So, now in my righteous adolescenss  (LOL) the good estrogen has revert things where they should be!

Just for the record, I'm Intersex(PAIS).
I was born with Albinism, so I lack pigmentation in my hair, eyes, and skin.  I also have a few different eye problems.

Ert, has changed my eyes in ways I never thought possible.

Before ert, my eyes where light blue.  Now there a bit darker blue.

I also suffer from Photophobia, due to the lack of pigment in my irises.  Since starting ert, my eyes have been able to handle more light than before.

I also have Nystagmus, or the random movement of my eyes.  With Albinism, we usually have it the worst but our brains learn to adapt very early in life.  Now I still have it, but it has subsided a lot.

I also never had steriioptic vision growing up.  So I never understood 3D, even in life.  Now I have some steriooptic vision.  That one can be difficult sometimes for NY brain to process.

I'm not on HRT (pre-T FtM) BUT my eye colour regularly changes anyway. God knows what it'll do when I'm on HRT

So HRT changes eye pigment for some people? Or does eye colour change slightly over time anyway? Nobody ever mentioned theirs changing that I know.

Mine are dark blue, with a small ring of green in the center. Central heterochromia, because there is no mixing of the colors. They've never changed my whole life. My mother's eyes were the same blue, my father's were green. Makes sense - those two were like oil and water lol. But it doesn't look to have changed at all on T. Maybe T doesn't do anything in that regard.

E definitely darkened my hair in the past.

If I remember right  eye changes were listed as a side effect. It can change the curvature shape a little and it's probably that that is creating the appearance / color change.

If it changes ocular shape or the lens that's interesting.... I wonder if anyone found their eyesight improved or got worse or anything?

If it really does change eye color I wonder if that's only MtF or FtM as well?

HRT 5 months. My eyes are blue and I was also surprised to here a couple people say that my eyes look warmer and the blue is a little richer and deeper. Actually over the last month I look in the mirror and I see girls eyes looking back.

Thank god! I don't know what I would do with my eyes. They're my best feature.

A year on from HRT and my eyes haven't changed. They're still dark blue with a bit of green. But I hear anyone with brown or hazel eyes often notice color changes more easily.

I really wish hrt could change eye color but I've been on it for over 2 years and my eyes are still the same freaky lavender/pink color they always were. But I do totally love tinted contact lenses!

Now I'm curious what HRT will do with my eyes. I've mentioned it before, but I have partial heterochromia. Blue with about 1/4th of my right eye brown. Would be interesting to see if that shifts any, I should get a good photo for comparison later.

I haven't noticed a change in colour.  They are still blue.  But the shape or something has changed about them.  They look brighter and very much more feminine. 

I never noticed before that there was a gender difference in the eyes.  Now I know that there definitely is.  Darned if I can figure out what the difference is, though!

Could it be the amount of water on the eyes making them shine more?

I have noticed it's pretty much impossible to get watery eyes any more. Even in a high wind on a cold day. Lying down makes them a bit wet at the corners sometimes but otherwise, I think hormones have reduced the amount of fluid there.

My eye color has changed a few times over the course of my life.

Originally bright bright blue.

Then they faded to a pale blue.

Shortly afterward they became green with a dark blue ring around the iris.

Theyve since settled on a grey with a gold starburst around the pupil and the dark blue ring around the iris.

Im sure it all reflect something in my biology/health if you follow iridology..

They do seem a lot wider and a lot brighter now 9 or 10 months on HRT but I attribute that to my no longer wandering through life sneering and scowling about everything and theyre finally open all the way now.

*shrug.*
