First open it in Photoshop.

 

 And zoom in on the eye you want to change the color.

You can use Ctrl + or Ctrl – for zooming, or just try the zoom tool (magnifier).

 

Then use the brush tool. Right Click to adjust the Master Diameter and Hardness.

 

Then press Q on your keyboard to enter the quick mask mode.

Then color the eye using the paintbrush.

 

Now press again the Q key to bring back in the standard mode.

And then press SHIFT+ CTRL+ I or go to SELECT>>>INVERSE, so that the eye is now selected.

Then copy it to a new layer or just simply hit CTRL+J.

 

Make sure that the eye layer is selected. Then there are many ways to change the color of the eye. Let’s try the COLOR BALANCE. Go to IMAGE>>>ADJUSTMENTS>>>COLOR BALANCE or just press CTRL+B.

Then adjust the levels of cyan, magenta and yellow, like this one.

Try to delete some unnecessary colors outside the iris of the eye.

Then zoom out, try to do the same procedures to change the color of the other eye.

Then merge the two eye layers. Then duplicate the eye layer (CTRL+J).

Set the layer blending mode to Overlay and Opacity to 55%.

Then save your work. Here is the result.

All you have to do in order to learn Photoshop is just by playing around with it. Be patient and everything will be fine. - denztriker
