In your early to mid 40's the muscles that keep your retina in place directly behind your eyes relax a bit and you lose that close up ability to focus. This is the reason for bifocal lenses. As you age futher glaucoma and cataracts can become a problem as well.

∙ 12y agoWell, it really depends. Most babies are born with Blue eyes. Eye color does change but EYE COLOR STOPS CHANGING AT 3 YEARS. This always confuses people but after 3 years it will stay the same.

∙ 14y agoTechnically I'm not sure, but personally I think it's possible to have small changes in eye color as you get older. I think it's more due to your environment and such like with me, my eyes have changed 4 or 5 times between blue, hazel, and green as I've gotten older but I think that's because the sun has had a lot of contact with my eyes.

∙ 10y agoYes I have seen this with some elderly people. My italian grandfather had very dark brown eyes when he was younger and now they are light green / blue with absolutely no brown in them at all. I have also seen this happen in elderly african people that used to have black eyes that turned blue when they reach old age. Maybe a loss of melanin as we age has something to do with it?

∙ 8y agoSome children start out with blue eyes and they change color within a year. Sometimes illness or accidents can change the color of the iris. There is now a surgery that can change the iris color or some use colored contacts.

No, they don't, my eye is the same size as my 5-year-old niece and my 2-year-old niece as well. We all have the same size eyes, they will never grow. Unless you have a glass eye of course ;)
