Notable Lighteyes

Becoming a lighteyes

It is known that if a man wins a Shardblade he becomes a Lighteyes; his eyes become light.[1]

Kaladin's eyes change during his fight to save Dalinar, although they changed back afterwards.[2]

Hoid thinks that he should be amused by the import put in the color of the eyes, however he reflects that there is a good reason for this.[3]

This page or section deals with theories or speculation.
Please read carefully and note that this is not necessarily canonical.

It might be that the reasons are that the Knights Radiant all were using Surgebinding and Shards, and thus all had light eyes even if they didn't have them at birth.
