At a little coffee shop in a college town in Mississippi, I happened to glance up at my waitress and was struck speechless by the astonishing color of her eyes. She was fairly average in most ways, a nice face and long dark hair, but her eyes were a pale grey, almost the color of marble. There was something about those light eyes with her darker coloring that was stunning. I’ve never seen eyes like that again.
The famous cover of National Geographic an Afghani woman. Startlingly aqua eyes that just pierce you.

I knew a girl growing up that had one light brown eye and one light blue eye. It was pretty striking. She also used to insist that she got it being hit by ball lightning when she was little. Don’t know about that.
Here’s a link to the cover. Hit the “View larger” button. It’s worth looking at.

Worked with a guy that had freaky pale blue eyes, really, really pale. Almost white . This was long before colored contacts. He didn’t wear glasses otherwise I would have guessed he had major vision problems just to look at him.
My maternal grandmother had pale greenish-hazel eyes with what I can only describe as a band of gold in them. The area of the iris closest to the pupil was a startling amber-gold. I have always assumed that I got my green eyes from my grandma. Both my parents and my two siblings had dark brown eyes.
I know a waitress who has eyes kinda like that. She and her mom both have eyes that are the color of ice.
I knoew a guy in Baltimore in the late '70s who had eyes like sunlight shining through dark-blue stained glass. Never seen anything like them. Not colored contacts, either, because sometimes he wore glasses, and they still looked like that.
Almost like the color of the blue banner on this site!
My ex. His eyes were a startling golden colour. I used to call them tiger eyes (like the gemstone). As I stated in another recent thread, now I call them limpid pools of piss. But when I liked the guy, they were really something else. I’ve seen others with a vaguely similar colour that I call “tiger eyes”, but I’ve never seen anyone else’s colour match the intensity of his.
He wore contacts, but they weren’t coloured. I checked. 
I went to high school with a guy like that. Really pale blue eyes like you’d see on a husky or malamute.
And I knew not one, not two, but three women in college (all named Lisa!) with one blue and one green eye.
A couple of years ago I was in a class with a young woman who had violet eyes. She’s the only person I’ve ever seen in real life with eyes that color. To top it off, those eyes were set against light brown skin in a very pretty face. I’m a straight woman, but I noticed that girl the moment she walked into the class. 
(She wound up sitting next to me, and we were class buddies for two semesters … very smart and sweet girl, but a little troubled. Gorgeous eyes, though.)
My eyes used to be a light grey - they’ve now turned a dark green.
One of my friends has yellow eyes though. Only person “eye’ve” ever seen with yellow eyes.
One of my wife’s friends has eyes that are a pale, bright blue. If you know anything about pottery, it’s the color of a light wash of denim glaze on white clay (that’s the best way I can explain it)
She has four daughters… all with the exact same eyes.
I had a friend in high school who had one eye that was half green and half brown, divided down the middle. The other eye was green, IIRC.
Used to know a little girl that had golden/amber eyes flecked with a light green tint. Under direct sunlight they really reflected the light and stood out.
They eventually melted into a darker, more uniform brown when she was about 2 years old.
My mother has yellow eyes as well. My eyes are green around the outside and brown on the inside around the pupil. Interestingly enough, my sister’s are the exact opposite, brown around the outside and green around the inside.
I worked with a nurse who had one blue eye and the other was half blue and half green. It was split straight down the middle. She caught me staring at it, and yelled at me that yes, she was a freak, but maybe I could at least be polite and not stare.
I actually thought it was rather cool, but i was too scared to tell her that. ( I was really young then)
I know it’s not on a person, but it’s strange even for an animal.
One of my cats has marbled eyes. His breed, Turkish Van, come with either amber or blue eyes. They’re all born with blue eyes, and then they slowly turn amber. His seemed to have stopped halfway (he’s almost 3 now), and they are pale pale blue laced with flecks and streaks of amber and a few hunks of darker blue. Like a hologram they look amber on one picture and blue in the next. The total effect grey from a distance, but if you get close to his face. . . wierdest thing.
Obsidian, is that cat wearing eyeliner? 
I’m completely oblivious to it now because I’ve known her for 19 years, but my best friend has two different coloured eyes. One is greeny hazel, the other is light brown. They’re pretty: the green one has a light brown outer ring, and the brown one has a green outer ring, so they’re co-ordinated. She’s lost count of the number of times that strangers have blurted out, “Omigod! You have different coloured eyes!” No shit! :smack:
:eek: It’s THE ATTACK OF THE ODD-EYED LISAS!!1!!
I, for one, welcome our new Lisa overlords.
