Copy/paste :P
Although in lore, their eyes are said to be green,[ Monster Manual ] they have been shown different in some sources:
In The Frozen Throne, blood elven eyes were depicted white and pupil-less, both in-game and in official artwork. A possible explanation for this is that when the blood elves first began to feed on demonic magic, it took a while for their eyes to change to the green they are known for today. However, since they were deprived of the magic of the Sunwell their eyes lost their blue hue and became white. This is probably false though, since when Valeera Sanguinar absorbed the magic of a naga Sea Witch's trident, her eyes instantly turned purple, the color of the magic in the trident.
In classic World of Warcraft, blood elves had normal white eyes with pupils. The Sunwell Trilogy also depicted them with this appearance. A possible explanation is that all blood elves having green eyes in World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade is simply an exaggeration by Blizzard to help differentiate blood and high elf NPCs, or it's simply a mistake by Blizzard.

SO basically eye change via magic absorbed. Better than contacts IMO!
If your toon never touched Fel, which I've seen many non-magic wielding blood elves go this route (Rogue/Hunter/Warrior), you'd never had green eyes. But you would of had to dealt with your addiction some how. The discipline needed to curb your addiction altogether, would basically be Kung Fu Mastah/Dali Llama level meditations.
