Well dang, my eyes are endangered. (in more ways than one.)

So this was brought on by my latest trip to the optometrist a few weeks ago. They examined my eyes (not just my eye sight) and the doctor told me I had to start taking lutein because the color blue of my eyes was not a 'color' so much as it was a 'lack of pigment' and because of it my eyes didn't have sufficient sun protection and I was getting deposits that would later in my life lead to macular degeneration and blindness. Yay. And I thought to myself "You know, a pigment deficiency (as it were) sounds more like an accidental mutation than an actual gene trait, so I wonder why so many people have blue eyes." So I searched it.
Anyways, whatever. Long story short, blue eyes are dying out.
And to be completely creeptastic and nosy, I was wondering... what color eyes do all you guys have?
(Don't wanna make a completely creeptastic thread asking personal information? Just stick it in random! Whee!)

[+]ed for blue eyes, not that they're dying out.

blue, but depends on the contrast in what I'm wearing, oddly enough.
Mine are kind of the same. They can go more greenish depending on what I wear. I wear a lot of blues and whites anyway, so my eyes usually are more blue.
