However, one quarter of respondents nationwide have considered wearing coloured contact lenses to change their eye colour temporarily - and blue is most wanted colour.
Green was the second most popular colour for those wanting a new look, with respondents saying green-eyed people were usually mysterious and creative.
People with brown or hazel eyes were perceived to be more trustworthy than people with other eye colours.
Brown-eyed people, like actor Johnny Depp, were also thought to be more affectionate and kind.
People with grey eyes were generally thought to be more intelligent than other people, and they were also described as usually being shy.
Blue was the most common eye colour among respondents, with 41 per cent of those who answered the survey having baby blue peepers and 39 per cent having brown or hazel eyes.
The survey also found that 18 per cent of people don't know what colour eyes their partner has!
That's despite the fact that 70 per cent of the population says that eyes are the most attractive feature of the opposite sex.
One in five people say they would wear coloured contact lenses like FreshLook One-Day Colour to create a new look, with the most popular occasion being for a night out clubbing.
Twenty-four per cent of those who filled in the survey already wear contact lenses for vision correction.
And Brits are obviously concerned about their appearance when going out on the town, as they spend an average of ￡17 on items to make themselves look good for a night out.
