Why do I have one green eye and one blue eye?

You most likely have a condition called heterochromia, which basically means all or part of one iris is a different color. Eye color is determined by the amount of melanin in your iris and an increase or decrease in the iris can cause a color change. It's not really an issue, it just looks cool, and is pretty rare in humans so people point it out alot (happens to me constantly, often from the same people) But yeah either that, or, like David Bowie, one of your eye's suffered damage causing the change.
