Answer:

The gene is called: HERC2.

Explanation:

"Scientists studying the genetics of eye color have identified that a mutation to a separate, nearby gene called HERC2 is the cause of blue eyes. This alteration switches off OCA2, the gene that determines the amount of the brown pigment melanin that we make. Today, around 20-40% of European people have blue eyes."

I hope this helps!
