Baby Eye Colour Predictor (Just for Fun)
Wondering what colour your baby's eyes might be? Choose both parents' eye colours for a playful estimate. Eye colour comes from many genes, so treat this as fun, not science.
For-fun prediction
Can you really predict a baby's eye colour?
Not reliably. Older science taught a simple brown-versus-blue model, but we now know eye colour is influenced by many genes, which is why two brown-eyed parents can occasionally have a blue-eyed child and vice versa. This tool uses a simplified, illustrative model just for fun, it is not a genetic test.
Why your baby's eye colour may change
Many babies are born with eyes that look darker, greyish or bluer than they will end up, because the pigment (melanin) in the iris is still developing. Eye colour often settles by around 6 to 12 months, and can keep changing a little up to about age three. If you ever notice a true difference in eye colour between the two eyes, a white or cloudy pupil, or anything that worries you, see a doctor.
