Why do we have dierent color eyes?

Eye color is the result of variations in the amount of

melanin, a pigment found in the front part of the iris. The lack
of pigment in the eye results in blue eyes, some pigment gives
green eyes and lots of pigment gives brown eyes. The dierent
shades of eye color correspond to the dierent amounts of
melanin in the eye.
Scientists are still trying to figure the genetics behind our
eye color. So far, they have discovered the OCA2 gene and
HERC2 gene. They have concluded that the HERC2 gene
influences how OCA2 works. HERC2 is needed for eye cells to
read OCA2. Some people have a version of HERC2 that can't
do its job appropriately. These peoples eye cells can't read the
OCA2 gene correctly either. If OCA2 isn't read, no P-protein
gets made. Having no P-protein means little melanin is
produce in the iris, which ends up as an eye color other than
brown. HERC2 and OCA2 can explain why many people's eyes
aren't brown, but we need other genes to explain why eyes are
green, blue, light brown, hazel and so on.
