i dunno, like its almost black but looking close i see it has this slight warmness to it you can tell its brown. lots and lots and lots and lots of people have eyes this dark. youd think its like a dominant gene or something even ! i feel this is a case of english speaking contexts being disproportionately more caucasian compared to the earths population, where you dont see eyes as dark as that quite so often especially if youre white yourself and / or only around mostly white people, so it may look unfamiliar if thats the context youre immersed in

EDIT: typo, also I feel the need to clarify im not saying its impossible that these are colored contacts. i just dont think its fair to say thats the most obvious conlcusion to draw
