Colored eyes can truly
make you stand-out in the crowd and give a mysterious personality.
Although it's not uncommon to find people with colored eyes, some are
just too rare, like the 'Green.' This is the least common eye color,
also the most attractive and desirable of all at the same time; only
2% of the world's population have them. Only some lucky ones get the
green color eyes because they have higher levels of yellow melanin.
They have a yellow stroma, which give the eyes its color because of
Rayleigh scattering. It's worth noting that green eyes don't appear
immediately after birth, sometimes it may take years.

Origin:
Although the exact
origin cannot be traced, there are records which corroborate that it
originated in the Caucasus, around the mountains. Therefore, it's
more common among European and Asian countries such as: Iran,
Pakistan, Afghanistan, Russia, Spain, Brazil. But, it's found to be
more common among females than males.
It has been proven that
the color of the eyes depends on more than one gene (up to 16 genes).
So, there's a good chance that a newborn baby can have any eye color.
However, certain heritages are less likely to get this most coveted
colored eyes.
It's often considered
that people with green eyes are intellectual, mysterious and
mischievous. The color green is often linked with jealousy too, and
some are considered evil. In older times, women with red hair and
green eyes were declared a witch (because cats have green eyes and
witches are linked with cats) and so, were hunted down.
The rarity of green
color has made it desirable enough by many people. No wonder, people
today wear green colored contacts. People with astigmatism are
largely wearing prescription green colored contacts too. If
you want to have that mysterious green eyes, you could always go for
colored contact lenses.
