  Yes it is a fact that some people have two different colored eyes. People's eye color a manifestation of the pigment that is present in the iris. Two different-colored eyes within a single individual is comparatively very few in humans which is mainly caused by increased or decreased pigmentation of the iris. Although previously believed to be inherited in simple Mendelian fashion, eye color has proved to be a polygenic trait. And we hold that people may have two different colored eyes due to an alteration in the expression of the genes within the cells of the entire iris or even a particular section. It sounds quite interesting that people have two different colored eyes but it really exists and there is still a lot of fun to explore other possible underlying causes of it.
