Hello,
Is it possible to change the eye color of only one of a character's eyes?  I would like to make a character that has different colored eyes.

Thank you.

No, it doesn't appear that you can.
Time for an enhancement request, so it seems.

Well, yes, there's pretty much always a way to do almost anything.
But using the Character Creator functionality... the eyes share the same material, so "No,"

I think you could do it while keeping your character CC compatible if you make an "accessory" eye. Basically you could duplicate the eye mesh in Blender or wherever and use it as "clothing" weighted to the existing eye bones. Then you just hide the original eye mesh in CC.

This is a method you can use if you want a CC body with different face count as well. Just make it clothing that replaces the original body. It works on everything but the face. It will not work on the face because it will not morph with visemes and facial gestures.

Or just attach it right in iClone. I think there are some fake eyes in the accessories folder. They've been around for several versions.

Interesting ideal.  You'd have to be sure to attach it properly, so the eyes move together.  Unless you want a Marty Feldman look.
