This is a hard one.

Thanks to genetic research we know that blue eyes originated from a single gene mutation some 10,000 years ago around the Black Sea region and then expanded into Northern Europe. Green and hazel eyes appeared due to subsequent mixtures.

As for the actual evolutionary benefits of lighter eyes there is little to be said. Could they be seen as somewhat more atractive and therefore more prone to creating descendance?

Does anyone have any further insight on this point?
