Line 129:
* Max Zorin in ''[[A View to a Kill]]'' has this trait. He is played by Christopher Walken (see below) but it does serve as a [[Red Right Hand]] for the character.
* In ''[[Wayne's World]] 2'', Wayne and Garth need to organise their concert with a guy who has partial ocular albinism (one eye has no pigmentation, i.e. is white). [[Hilarity Ensues]] when they get distracted by this while pretending they barely notice and make several [[Ignore the Disability|Freudian slips]].

* In ''The Unborn'', the 2009 film, this trope is one of the indications that the protagonist is being haunted by the title unborn twin brother who is trying to possess her.
* In ''Vicky Cristina Barcelona'', Maria Elena ([[Penelope Cruz]]) tells her ex-husband that she doesn't trust his new girlfriend Christina because her eyes are of different colors. Then again, she's a tad crazy.
Line 170:
* One ''[[Goosebumps]]'' book has the main character's best friend be a girl with [[Mismatched Eyes]]. This becomes a plot point when she mysteriously disappears and he starts seeing a dog with [[Mismatched Eyes]] around the neighborhood.
* In the [[Roger Zelazny]] book ''This Immortal'', protagonist narrator Conrad Nomikos has [[Mismatched Eyes]], among other odd features. But then he {{spoiler|is probably a mutant and is definitely hundreds of years old.}} His unique appearance is an important plot point.

* In the ''[[Keys to the Kingdom]]'' series, The Old One has one gold eye and one black one.
* Giulia in Mika Waltari's ''The Wanderer'' has different-coloured eyes. She's an evil bitch, though, like most female characters written by Waltari.

* In Jean Kerr's play ''King of Hearts'':
{{quote| '''Dunreath:''' My left eye is blue but the right one is brown. Didn't you really know that?<br />
'''Larry:''' You're kidding. Good God, they ''are'' different!<br />
'''Dunreath:''' ''(defensively)'' Well, it's not a disease! }}
* In Quinn Fawcett's Mycroft Holmes novels, Paterson Erskine Guthrie, Mycroft's secretary and amanuensis, has mismatched eyes.
