A lot of people don't know that horses can have different colored eyes than the basic brown. In horses that have a lot of white markings, (Paints, QH, pintos, ect) especially on the face the eyes can be blue, although some horses have little or no white on the face and still have blue eyes. There are some horses that have amber-colored eyes. These are sometimes refered to as "tiger eyes". The cause for these different eye colors are in the horse's genes. If the parents have these color eyes they can pass it on to their offspring. They still can see just as well as if they had brown eyes. On some horses that have all white faces (bald/apron) some owners will have pigment permanently tatooed on the horse's eyelids, hopefully to deflect some of the sun's rays and reduce sun damage to pink skin and blue eyes.

Answer2:

As stated above blue eye are caused by genetics and the possibility of white facial markings. It should be noted that true white horses typically have brown eyes, while cremellos, and perlinos will have blue eye as part of the double dilution gene.

Some grey horses and ponies are born with lots of white on their faces and have a good chance of blue eyes.
