[Valiente, Tatianna]

It is possible, I believe it is called Alexandria's Genesis.

Yes it is possible to have purple eye it is some what rare, but when i was born i had Purple eyes.

[Natalie Olivares]

It actually is. But it is super rare. Not a lot of people have it. But there ws this lady called Elizabeth taylor and she had really pretty violet esye. Her eyes were what she was mostly known for. But she pased away and none of her children inherited her eye color

[Jeremiah Soliman]

It is definitely possible for someone to have purple eyes, but as you all said it is very rare. Some people can wear fake contacts that make them look like they have purple eyes. The famous singer Katy Perry actually has purple eyes. I wish I had purple eyes.

Of course it is!
"Eye color is a polygenic phenotypic character.' In fact, there are about 15 genes that determine an individual's eye color. In humans, the pigmentation of the iris depends on the concentration of melanin in the iris pigment epithelium. True violet eyes occur only as a result of albinism. Elizabeth Taylor actually had deep blue eyes, which appeared purple at times.

Like Marilyn said, true purple eyes only occur as a result of albinism. Those with albinism usually have blue eyes; there are cases where there is so little melanin that the retina (which is red) can be seen, but there is enough pigment that the eyes appear purple. Also, those who have albinism or light colored eyes are more sensitive to bright light than those with darker eye colors, that's why there are usually an abundance of people with dark-colored eyes in places where the sun is more intense. :{B

I never new it was possible! I always thought people just bought
contacts in purple.
Thats pretty cool! Is there any "side effect" if thats the right word,
of Alexandria's Genesis?

Btw- Uh.....Pretty sure Katy Perry doesn't have purple eyes.
