"Green-Eyed" typically refers to individuals with green-colored irises, a rare eye color that results from a combination of genetic factors. The green hue is caused by the presence of a yellow pigment called lipochrome and the scattering of light in the stroma of the iris. This eye color can vary in shade, ranging from light green to deep emerald. In literature and culture, "green-eyed" is often associated with jealousy or envy, as seen in phrases like "green-eyed monster." This symbolism can be traced back to various works, including those by Shakespeare and Homer, where characters with green eyes are sometimes depicted as envious or possessive.
