eye color

[ghostrider]

hi,

I'm just filling out my application form (after reviewing the checklist forum). I've always
been told I have hazel colored eyes, so I checked that on my form - then I noticed on
my driver's license it say "BRWN". What do I do now?

(I'm a guy - I can't tell the difference between hazel and brown :-) )

Go with what is on your driver's license.

Yeah...me too.

But since I have more green than brown they always just put down GRN.

You can't blame them though, there are so many definitions and variances of "hazel". I even have a thin blue ring around the outside of the iris to top it off. Sheeesh.

I had some pof the same issues with hair.
Never sure whether to answer None, Brown Grey, Some, not Much, Silver, or white. I know women whose haircolor can be any color but whats on their license

I had a former student with one blue eye and one brown eye. That one kinda stumped me as to what to put down.

He picked "multi". Guess he got his license, cause I didn't hear back from him.

But, back to the original question. I am not exactly sure anymore what "hazel" means. Both my licenses say "hazel", but I have seen lots of other people who said they had hazel eyes, and they sure weren't the same color as mine!

Hazel eyes can appear different colors depending upon what the person is wearing and the light.

Very true.

ok, but how do I correct my application form?
white-out will look funny on yellow paper :-)

Draw a line through the incorrect info, then initial it, and write in your correction.

Heterochromia iridium is two different eye colors..
I have one brown eye and one green eye....that confused em...


I use hazel, it is the common vernacular for eyes of different hues,,
OP maybe the person at the DMV couldnt spell hazel and thats how you got brown???
