How did Megan and Morgan Boyd get blue eyes?

Megan and Morgan Boyd's eyes are hereditary. Their mother and paternal grandfather have two blue eyes. Furthermore, they have an uncle and a great-grand aunt with one blue and one brown eye.

Do the Trueblue Twins have the same syndrome as Kate Bosworth's Waardenburg syndrome? Kate Bosworth is an American actress and model with two different coloured eyes. Her left eye is blue, and her right one is mostly hazel. Thus, she has a syndrome called heterochromia iridis, a condition whereby the iris in one eye has a different colour from the iris of the other eye.

When it comes to the Trueblue Twins, they are not 100% identical because of their unique eyes. Morgan Boyd is the only twin with the same condition as Kate Bosworth. Morgan's right eye is dark brown, her left eye is blue, while her sister Megan has two blue eyes.
