Color changing eyes…apply what you already know in a new way!
1. Open photo in Photoshop
2. Duplicate layer
3. Desaturated the top layer (image>adjustments>desturate)
4. Increase contrast on top layer until it looks dramatic.
5. Erase holes in the top layer so that the iris of your eyes shows through.
