They do change colour. My mother died this year and she always had dark brown eyes yet when she was in her hospital bed close to death, her eyes turned grey.
I believe they do not change COLOR but the color lightens. Case in point: The last time I saw my dad alive was around June/July 1990 and they were getting ready to leave Florida to come back to NY... his blue eyes were very pale and it shocked me and I turned away because I felt something was wrong in that very moment. He died that September (aortic aneurism).
Just yesterday I was talking to my mom and noticing something seemed a bit "off" with one side of her lips very slightly lowered and a blue "streak" extending from the corner of her lips toward her ear and then when she took her sunglasses off, I was shocked to see that her brown eyes were very light brown and they were normally darker brown. Mom is 86 and in fairly poor health and refuses to see a doctor. I've got to hunt her down today to see if she's ok (she gallivants all day long every day) but something tells me she won't be with us long despite her claims to live to 100.
It's my personal opinion that eye's "fade" or otherwise lighten in color when one's time becomes limited but I have no idea what that time frame might be.
Yes, they do change color. My father's eyes were always a gorgeous brown. Three days before he past, they were an ice blue. This definitely did not look like just a haze over his irises. It looked like they had lost most of their pigment, and what was left had been tinted by the morphine he was getting. (The morphine was an electric blue color) I am not sure if morphine caused this, or it possibly had something to do with his macular degeneration. I do know that his irises changed to blue, and the whites of his eyes stayed white.

Why do brown eyes change to blue color before death?
The phenomenon of eyes changing color before death is a myth. The color of a person's eyes is determined by the amount of melanin in the iris, which does not change suddenly at the end of life. Any perceived color change may be due to changes in lighting, dehydration, or changes in the eye's transparency as a person nears death.
