Does your eye color change when you go blind?

Personally I think that the eye clor will not change if a person go blind. The color of you eye is the color of your iris as seen through the cornea. The change in your eye color is either cause by a change in the color of the iris or the clarity of the cornea. Perception of eye color is often variable with the observer. Some might call one pair of eyes green and another may say hazel or blue. Rarely external factors such is the color of the light in the room can confuse patients that their eye color is changed.The cornea is a clear dome over the front of the eye that is usually quite clear as a youth. With aging or high blood lipid levels its clarity may change causing a cloudy appearance that the patient or observer may call "gray." Hence a brown or blue eye may turn gray. A scarred or swollen cornea also has a gray appearance. The color of the iris behind an abnormal cornea is not changed.Iris color rarely changes. Iris inflammation, atrophy, tumors, abnormal blood vessels or surgery can change the iris appearance. Some glaucoma drops can change iris color. Anytime the appearance of an eye changes, it should be examined by an eye doctor. It is always better to be safe.

At the back of the eye on the retina, there are two types of photoreceptors (cells which detect light). Cones deal with colour and fine detail and act in bright light, while rods deal with vision in low-light situations. In the first few minutes of moving into a dark room, cones are responsible for vision but provide a poor picture. Once the rods become more active (they are initially slow to react), they take over and create a much better picture in poor light. Once you move back into light, the rods are reset and so dark-adaption will take a few moments again.
