Have you ever heard of heterochromia iridum? This interesting abnormality is characterized by the iris (colored part of the eye) being different colors in each eye. While heterochromia is a rare mutation, it is arguably one of the most beautiful mutations that a human, or an animal, can have.
Here are 16 pictures showing how magnificent heterochromia can be.
