In the pic attached, I used the Lasso tool around the eye,
then did an inverse and desaturated the pic. leaving the blue in the eye.

Then I had to paint in the other eye. There must be a VERY easy way to leave both eyes when I change it to b&w
I just dont know how...

In most PS programs you can just hold the shift key and it will allow you to make additional selections, the Alt key will allow you to remove selections.

There are many ways to do it I am sure. My way would be to open the color picture in PS.
2) make a duplicate copy of photo (Command J)
3) Highlight the new layer and change to B&W using whatever you are comfortable with. (Might be Camera Raw filter)
4) when happy with B&W make a mask for that layer (Click Mask icon)
5) Make sure the mask is highlighted. With a small brush @ 100% opacity, make sure the color is black, paint black on the eyes while the mask is highlighted. You will see the color of here eyes start to appear. If you open to much change brush to white and touch up the unwanted areas.

If the eyes are not strong enough go to the base color photo open Filter camera raw and increase saturation.

Flatten image and you are done.

I tried the alt key and the Ctrl key but I never tried the shift key, Just tried it and it works.

next I'll go play with the mask, I never thought of that.
Thanks for writing
Problem solved

I would keep each eye on a separate layer anyway, along with individual selections/masks, Just to have more control. They can always be grouped later if needed.

When using the Lasso Tool in PS . You have 4 choices . The first white box on the left allows you to lasso around something , do what you want . Then you can lasso another area and the first Lasso area will disappear . Using the 2nd box will allow you to Lasso as many areas as you want at the same time . The 3rd box will allow you to lasso a area , then it will allow you to make another lasso inside the first one at the same time . In your case , you could use the 2nd box to make a lasso around one eye and then around the 2nd eye . Hope this helps you in the future . I sniped a copy of the boxes I am talking about for you to see .Tommy

Thank you, Ive used the lasso tool many many times, I never noticed those boxes.. I'll make good use of them.
Plus I wrote myself a note to remind me till I get used to using them
