@chaslyfromUK The
Martin–Schultz scale comprises 20 standard “colors” used to describe human eye-color. But the relative prevalence within a particular culture influences what gets called what. For example, in Spain eye-color gets broadly classified as
“light” eyes (ojos claros) versus “dark” eyes (ojos oscuros), where the former is anything
but dark-brown or black—and
much less common.That sounds like what’s happening in Iran, although Spanish does at times also use more specific terms like
ojos verdes for green eyes. —
