Your eye colour is determined by the amount and distribution of melanin in your iris *melanin also determines the colour of your skin and hair* With age the melanin in your eye can decrease, causing fading, also causing our hair colour to fade.

If your worried about your eyes because of this, i wouldn't worry too much but go get them checked out by an optometrist if you continue to worry.
