Why Do Babies Eyes Change Color?

I heard about a few babies being born with one certain color of eyes, then growing up with a completely different color. How is this possible? & Is it unhealthy?

      Its possible because when babies are first born their eye-color isn't stabilized yet.  Its not unhealthy at ALL, its just that in newborns, the pigmentation process of the iris is not yet complete yet so the eye color sometimes changes.

      Babies with darker skin are usually born with dark eyes that stay relatively dark. Iris color in lighter-skinned babies is usually a blue or bluish-gray color at birth, then change as they grow. Melanin production changes during the first year of life, usually resulting in a darker, deeper eye color.

      That's all I know. Hope this help you!
