🫶 How beautiful are this little one’s eyes!!
👉 Having different coloured eyes is a rare condition called Heterochromia.
👉 There are 3 types of Heterochromia:
- Complete Heterochromia where both eyes are a completely different colour.
- Central Heterochromia, which is discolouration within the iris. The inner ring of the iris is different from the colour of the outer ring. The inner ring often appears to have flecks of different colours.
- Sectoral Heterochromia, also known as partial heterochromia, occurs when only one part of the iris is different from the rest. It looks like a different coloured spot on the iris.
Heterochromia is a rare condition. In most cases, it doesn’t affect vision or cause any health complications. However, when central heterochromia occurs later in life, it may be a sign of an underlying condition. If your baby has Heterochromia make sure you mention it to a health professional.
