Although you can't predict the exact age your baby's eye color will be permanent, the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) says most babies have the eye color that will last their lifetime by the time they're about 9 months old. However, some can take up to 3 years to settle into a permanent eye color.

Read More »Share on Pinterest It’s a good idea to hold off on buying the adorable outfit that matches your baby’s eye color — at least until your little one reaches their first birthday. That’s because the eyes you gaze into at birth may look a bit different at 3, 6, 9, and even 12 months of age. So before you get too attached to those 6-month-old green eyes, just know that some babies will experience changes up to 1 year of age. Some little ones’ eye color even continues to change hues until they’re 3 years old. When do baby’s eyes change color? Your baby’s first birthday is a significant milestone, especially if they get to dive into a cake for the first time. But it’s also about the age you can safely say your baby’s eye color is set. “Typically, a baby’s eyes can change color during the first year of life,” says Benjamin Bert, MD, an ophthalmologist at Memorial Care Orange Coast Medical Center. However, Daniel Ganjian, MD, a pediatrician at Providence Saint John’s Health Center, says the most significant changes in color occur between 3 and 6 months. But the hue you see at 6 months may still be a work in progress — which means you should wait a few months (or more) before filling in the eye color section of the baby book. Although you can’t predict the exact age your baby’s eye color will be permanent, the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) says most babies have the eye color that will last their lifetime by the time they’re about 9 months old. However, some can take up to 3 years to settle into a permanent eye color. And when it comes to the color your baby’s eyes will take on, the odds are stacked in favor of brown eyes. The AAO says that half of all people in the United States have brown eyes. More specifically, a 2016 study involving 192 newborns found that the birth prevalence of iris color was: 63% brown

But before you go high fiving yourself for passing on your brown eyes, you should know that it’s not just one gene that determines your little one’s eye color. It’s many genes acting in collaboration. In fact, the AAO says as many as 16 different genes could be involved, with the two most common genes being OCA2 and HERC2. The other genes can pair with these two genes and create a continuum of eye colors in different people, according to the Genetics Home Reference. Although uncommon, that’s why your children may have blue eyes even though you and your partner have brown. More likely, two blue-eyed parents will have a child with blue eyes, just like two brown-eyed parents will likely have a brown-eyed child. But if both parents have brown eyes, and a grandparent has blue eyes, you increase the odds of having a blue-eyed baby, according to the AAP. If one parent has blue eyes and the other has brown, it’s a gamble as to the color of baby’s eyes. Other reasons your baby’s eyes change colors “Some eye disease can affect color if they involve the iris, which is the muscular ring around the pupil that controls pupil contracting and dilating when we go from [a] dark to light place, and vice versa,” says Katherine Williamson, MD, FAAP. Examples of these eye diseases include: albinism, where the eyes, skin, or hair have little or no color
