New research shows that all blue-eyed people share a common ancestor. This person lived more than 6,000 years ago and carried a genetic mutation that has now spread across the world.
The exact cause remains to be determined but scientists do know that eye color began to change long before recorded history began. The following is a transcript of the video.
All blue-eyed people have one ancestor in common, born around 6,000-10,000 years ago. Blue eyes are caused by a gene mutation. For years, researchers had searched for it on the OCA2 gene. The OCA2 gene determines how much brown pigment is in our eyes. But what they were looking for wasn't there at all.

My mother had green eyes and red hair, and so does one of my sisters!....................
I'm sick of you science deniers. If we don't know our history, we are doomed to repeat it. I think the professor on Back to the Future said that, if I'm not mistaken. I'll google it.
Interesting idea. :)
Adam and Eve...See Genesis(KJV)

This sounds like a truly beautiful combination.
I don’t trust horses or dogs with two different eye colors. Don’t remember running across a human with this condition. If I did pretty sure I wouldn’t trust them either.
My research, that I’m willing to share for a price, suggests that the guy was named Eddie
David Bowie and a famous baseball player have had two different eye colors. Scroll back up thread for pics...........
Of course, you poke around in that brown eye too much and it’ll prolapse and turn into a pink eye.
I think that it is the strangest thing, that both Bible believers and atheists are shocked at the idea that certain “races” were created before Adam.
Mila Kunis has two different color eyes.
Heterochromia.
I rest my case. ;-)
And throw the kicker in there. That person just had to be ‘racis’ also.
Sorry!!!!
Come to think of it, my mother does to.
Kill that theory.
And I’m sorry for your loss.
His name was Adam.
If that is Bowies eye, then it is blind or he is brain damaged. Pupil dilation is JUST A BIT asymmetrical.
Why does Ziggy have a blown pupil>

A lot of people don’t know it, but David Bowie did not actually have different colored eyes. They were both blue, but when he was young, a friend of his punched him in the left eye, and damaged the muscles that contract the pupil. The highly dilated left pupil made the iris appear brown.
Somebody had to do it. LOL!
