Albert's Wonky Eye
Despite risking seeming obsessed with Albert, I had to post this picture. He'd been to the eye doctor and they dilated one of his pupils so his eyes looked all creepy. Everyone said he looked like David Bowie, but he has 2 different color eyes, not 2 different sized pupils.

He has a condition called anisocoria, which is the medical term for unequal pupils. In 1962, aged 14, he got punched in the eye by his schoolfriend George Underwood, during an argument over a girl named Carol Goldsmith. George's knuckle caught David's eye and dislodged something. David was admitted to Farnborough Hospital, where it was found that the sphincter muscles in his left eye were damaged and he underwent two eye operations. He has an enlarged pupil that remains permanently open, giving them an ununusual appearance.
Contrary to popular belief David DOESN'T have two different coloured eyes - they are both the same colour. The enlarged pupil only gives the "effect" of two different coloured eyes.
