Is there any relation between eye colour and how well you can see?

Why does everyone seem to think that 20/20 represents perfect vision?

Wearing glasses my eyesight is better than 20/20 but I still have friends with far better vision than me.

Exactly, so many people love telling you they have great vision by claiming 20/20 - Infact they are just average

20/20 means that from 20ft you can see what the average person sees from 20 feet.

What you want is 20/10 vision. Now thats hawk eye

Then hopefully you will understand I chose to type as I did due to the fact that I was being lazy, not that I can't spell. Just a shame that you had to do it in such a sarcastic manner, but whatever floats your boat I guess

I wasn't commenting on your spelling, I was talking about your definition of 1 in 300 being unique. There's no need to take offence.

Well, if eye colour have something to do with eyesight (and I don't think anyone actually run any conclusive tests on the subject) then it's worth noting eye colour changing laser surgery is in experimental stages at the moment, so without a doubt within the next decade or so we'll all be able to change our eye colour to whatever catches our fancy.

[_dogma_]

As far as I know (or as far as I've studied) There is not link between how well you can see and eye colour.

Eye colour is a trait that is predominately determined by genes. Vision is predominately determined by environment.

Though my lecturer could very well be talking rubbish!
