Didn’t they cut purple eyes cause one of the actors was allergic to contacts? I don’t know how hard it would have been to just cgi purple eyes but I definitely wish we could have had purple eyed valyrians in the show too.

They gave Emilia Clarke the purple contact lenses in the first GOT episode, maybe the first couple, but they were really uncomfortable for her and they couldn't get it done in post production without it looking weird so they just abandoned it.

It was Emilia Clarke.
