Away with the Monday blues: 8th July, 2013 Eye colour is determined by the amount of melanin in the outermost part of the iris. Melanin is the main pigment found in the human body, responsible for hair colour and skin colour. A high concentration of melanin will create brown eyes. Lower concentrations will create green and blue eyes, because the next layer of the iris is made of collagen, which is blue. All people with blue eyes have a single common ancestor who lived approximately 10,000 years ago.
