If one was to be 100% Caucasian and the other is 100% Asian is it genetically possible to have a child that has blue eyes?

yes,
ive met at least 2 asians with blue eyes althought its more of a hazel blue.. i read somewhere that wayyyy back then some asians in the China area had blonde hair and blue eyes... but throughout time they began to change to black hair and brown eyes.. nowadays you can still find some that have that very recessive gene...

I wasn't so hot in biology but if I actually learned something from that class, the child should have brown eyes unless the Asian has a recessive gene that makes blue eyes. So I would say it's possible, but the chances are very very very slim.

I was just wondering cause my friend has blue eyes and his mum is 100% Caucasian and he knows his dad is 100% Asian with no know blue eyed relatives in past generations. I question myself a bit if hes adopted?

Not unless the Asian parent carried a recessive blue eye trait.

Yes it is. I have two cousins in Hong Kong with blue eyes. Actually, one has two blue eyes and the other cousin has one blue one brown. It's blue-ish/gray-ish though. Not like the caucasian aquamarine blue blue if you get what I mean haha. They are the only one in my family known to have blue eyes though... My mom says its from malnutrition from the mother (who's usually very sick) but... ::shrugs::

Yes, not only blue eyes but also green. It has to do with melanin.It's also possible for them to have natural blonde hair.




However, when you say "100% Asian" I question what kind of Asian you're referring too...I'm assuming you're referring to mainly East Asians.

Have you ever seen normal Taiwanese or Korean people walking around on streets? Most of them have huge noses, small chinky eyes and flat noses and look nothing like those celebrities you see in dramas.And sorry, but most Korean celebrities you see on TV underwent a lot of plastic surgeries in order to look like what you see on TV. I think this should be well-known by all K-Pop-fans.

It can happen since but I see very slim chance, like only 10%. It can be a rare trait fallen from your parent's genetics.

It's really rare since the dominant gene is brown eyes unless the asian parent has blue eyes as their recessive gene.
I wish i had blue eyes...

i guess it could be possible.. surgery, strange DNA, even mixing of cultures blood (white +asian)
ive seen some people with light brown eyes or even gray/yellow eyes. but i think the grey eyes is a disease? i see it lots in old people... my moms eyes are lighter than mine. i wish i had that, mine are almost black..
you and i together, it just feels alright

Yes, it`s possible for an asian to have natural blue eyes but it`s only few asians who do.

Hmm, I learned about something in biology about this last week, but I wasn't too keen on paying attention sadly LOL. Though from what I do remember, yes it's possible but chances are slim since the gene for brown eyes is dominant while the gene for blue eyes is a recessive trait. Both parents need to have the gene for blue eyes for it to happen, though as I said, chances are slim.

I'm not too sure although my friend knows somebody that is asian with natural blue eyes. I've never come across anyone with blue eyes, but hey, that's cool.
We share the same love and the same dreams of making that difference with hope.

If that was possible, I think that Asian will be beautiful.
I wish I had blue eyes. Unique, and random at the same time.
