I was wondering if anyone here has seen one. Im not talking 1/8 or 1/16 either. There should be Hafus out there that are either 2nd generation In line Eurasian (I.E. two Eurasian parents) or 2nd generation Backcross line (I.E. Eurasian parent and Caucasian parent) that express a blue eyed phenotype with concurrent mongoloid facial taxonomy. Yet personally I have never seen this. There have been a few posts here mentioning people who match this description but I have yet to see a picture. One of my friends who is a "Black American" (I.E. ancestry is a mix match of African and European heritage) had a child that possesses blue eyes. The kids skin color is a mulatto/caramel color and his eyes are striking against his otherwise dark complexion. So to get back to my question have you ever seen a similar situation but of Asian heritage? Post pics if available.

YES, YES, YES.
I have even met a few *full* Asians with blue eyes, and heard about many others (eg, the brother of one of Taiwanese university schoolmates), who told me that she also had a couple uncles and cousins with blue eyes. By *full* Asian, I mean people both of whose parents were *full* Asian and whose parents' parents were *full* Asian with no known recent non-Asian ancestors. They look completely Asian except for the color of their eyes. There are genes for blue eyes throughout East Asia, even if they show up very very rarely.
Unfortunately, I did not have a camera with me, but I still would not take their pic (that is just so rude in my opinion).
Among Eurasians, it is much more common.
It is not uncommon among central Asians. I have seen Uyghurs, Mongols and Kazakhs with light colored eyes -- hazel, green, grey, blue.
My nephew is 1/4 Asian and has blue eyes, but he is not uncommon at all.
I grew up in SE Washington, DC and PG County, Maryland, in or adjacent to majority African-American neighborhoods and light colored eyes are not at all THAT uncommon. I saw a lot of people like Gary Dourdan (that guy on CSI).

Yes, my Daughter (1/4). This is not uncommon - it depends on the Euro part of the EA parent: in my case it's 1/2 German and 1/2 polish, my father has very light blue eyes and blond hair. I look full Asian myself facially, but I'm quite light colored

I think Asians have a more general eye color Asians also vary quite a bit in their eye color.

Neither myself, my sister nor my cousins have blue eyes. However, my maternal grandmother (lola) had blue eyes. She was of mixed descent - Spanish and Filipino. Too bad she did not pass these traits on.

According to my mother, we (my siblings and I) all had "hazel" (what color is hazle excactly For me it's grey) eyes which turned out lightbrown She says that "halfs" mostly have hazle eyes in the beginning that mostly turn out brown. My Daughter had very dark blued eyes (almost black) at the very beginning, which turned out medium-light-blue

My dad has hazel eyes (greenish, grayish, brownish...kinda of sewage colored). My mom has brown eyes. My eyes are a bit lighter than my mom's, but still very brown.

my friend has an EA baby - indian/swiss and she has blue/gray eyes and she is absolutely gorgeous. my friend is praying her eye colour doesnt change, but she is now 4-5 months so i think she's keeping her eye colour.

I was praying that my Daughter is just healthy , and I'm just glad that she es, and that she has good eyes. ;D Being a pretty girl ist just a nice sideeffect to me - but I sure admit that I'm glad that she is what she is. ps: [...]hazel eyes (greenish, grayish, brownish...kinda of sewage colored).

The last one looks like contacts: the concavity of the iris is high. The natural iris should be flat, well normaly ps: I've once seen a full Japanese with dark green eyes.

Ok I haven't posted here for a while. But I just found a photo of me as a baby with blue-grey eyes. I look ridiculously funny here, I know. My eyes are now green-brown and very moody... perhaps not the best of photos to demonstrate this colour combo but could not be effed looking further.
