The color and shape of a child's eyes is one of the main signs of a child's similarity to their parents, especially if mom and dad have eyes of different colors. Even before the baby is born, parents wonder which of them the baby will inherit eye color from.
Instructions
Step 1
When a baby is born, curious parents rush to consider all the details and details, to find out what kind of eyes their child has. But the fact is that almost all children are born with light, most often blue eyes, this is due to a small amount of pigment in the iris of the eyes. For uninformed parents, whose eyes, for example, are brown in both mom and dad, this can lead to bewilderment. You need to understand that over time, the pigmentation will fill up, and the child's eyes will be the same as the genes passed on to him by his parents.
Step 2
Most often, the color of the iris of the eyeball changes in the first 6 months after the birth of a child, less often it occurs within two to three years. You can find out if the color of the baby's eyes will change by looking closely at the shell: if small dark blotches are noticeable, then over time, the color of the eyes will darken.
Step 3
Of course, if both parents have light eyes, the baby will also inherit this color. A controversial issue in the event that mom and dad have eyes of different colors, one, for example, blue, and the other brown. Dark pigment is a stronger gene, but this does not mean that the child will have dark eyes. It matters which eyes the grandmothers and grandfathers had and which genes were passed on to the baby more.
Step 4
The human eyeball has several shells. The upper layer is the transparent cornea, behind it is the choroid, which is represented by the iris in the front of the eye. Inside the iris there is a pigment called melanin. The depth of the dark color depends on the amount of this pigment. The more it is in the cells, the darker the eyes will be. There are more people on the planet who have dark eyes than those who have blue or light gray eyes. This is due to the fact that genes are dominated by traits responsible for a large amount of melanin.
Step 5
The genes that were passed on to the child from the parents affect absolutely all the little things and nuances: what color the eyes will be, and when they will acquire the final color. In a small percentage of people, eye color changes are observed in older age. For example, brown eyes become lighter and gray ones take on a greenish tint. People with blue eyes often find their eye color brighter with age.
Step 6
Immediately, as soon as the child is born, it is very difficult to draw a conclusion about what kind of eyes he will have. But a little time will pass, and parents will be able to understand with the eyes of what color their baby will look at this world.
