Best Answer

you are born with heterochromia. my left eye is blue with gold around the pupil.the top of my right eye is blue and the bottom of it is brown.my great uncle had hectochromia.

That is wrong. Heterochromia has many causes, including being born with it:

  • Eye injury
  • Eye inflammation
  • Eye tumor
  • Bleeding in the eye
  • or other medical conditions

To be born with it, you'd have to be born with different melanin levels.

If you want Heterochromia that bad, have someone punch you in the eye as hard as they can. It will inflame for a few days, then most likely (and I mean VERY likely) will cause Heterochromia in the eye you were hit in.

Otherwise, buy colored contacts.

Can Heterochromia be passed on to children?

Heterochromia is a genetic mutation that cannot be passed down to children. It occurs as a defect in meiosis, and it produces an extra gene for eye colour. Alas, there is a greater chance that the child of a person with heterochromia will also get heterochromia, because there is a better chance of the gene mutating. But still, the chance of heterochromia is rare nonetheless.
