Do you think we will get this customization option for Blood Elves come Shadowlands? If we can have green and gold theres no reason we couldn’t have blue.
Nah

Canonically you are correct, because the Sunwell has been restored with a mix of Holy energy. So we should be able to have Gold, Green, or Blue.

I believe they stated at Blizzcon one of the added customization options is blue eyes for the Blood Elves.

Blue and gold are alliance colors, you enjoy your green eyes and red hair.
Actually maybe more blue and silver.

There are reasons even if you don’t want to accept them.

Not that I have any stake in this because I could care less about High Elves, but I don’t believe it was stated at all.

Give them blue eyes, so we can stop seeing high elf threads.

I have a lore post about Blue Eyes for Blood Elves. Like is it possible due to fact of having heavy holy energies while having Void ones as well within the Sunwell.
If so could the Void also have Arcane Energies or something? Or just Pure Arcane? 
It’s possible but I doubt it because it’s part of the visual language of the game. Blue eyes are used to indicate a character is a high elf instead of a blood elf. I wouldn’t rule it out but it’s most likely not happening.
Sounds more like you’d have either the green you got later or the gold that the new sunwell gives rather than the old coloration from the old sunwell that was more of an addition to the white/silver elves eyes.

And Blood Elves are High Elves. The blue eyes came from the Sunwell, we lost the Sunwell for awhile and fed off of some demon juice. Now we have the Sunwell back, so the blue eyes should make a return as well. Since the Sunwell is now a mixture of arcane and holy energy, we were given gold eyes for the Blood Elves that work more with the Light instead of arcane magic…
Blue eyes should come back, it would be a cool option for the Blood Elves to have, and it would force people to move on from the Alliance high elves nonsense. I am replaying the Blood Elf campaign right now in WC3R, so I’m pretty up to date on why the Alliance doesn’t deserve High Elves, ever again.

it makes sense lorewise and eye color is a small customization option after all. the sunwell is arcane/holy and it would be reflective of the cleansing effects of being bombarded by its arcane/holy magic 24/7 for over 8 years now in lore time. priests/paladins that are closer to the light flat out proved they can change and began to manifest golden eyes because of their strong devotion to the light. magister types have the same potential to manifest blue eyes because they are closer to the arcane
id be surprised after hearing ion say they want more options with eye color specifically, and that they finally took the effort to separate it from the face is very promising for blood elf players and would make a lot of those players happy, that only the most popular race in the game would be stuck with the same eye color that doesnt even reflect where they should or will be

Oh alright, thanks for clearing that up. I couldn’t recall.

It could work out.
Absolutely. With the Sunwell fixed, we should have our blue eyes begin to show up again. I’m also hoping for arcane purple.

Eye color isn’t as effective if the Windrunners in the alliance continue in the story.

(Statement): As someone else said, the only real reason to not give Blood Elves the blue eye customization options in Shadowlands, is a result of visual distinctiveness between High Elves and Blood Elves in game. In other words, were Blood Elves to get Blue Eyes, High Elves would need another way to be visually distinct from Blood Elves.
(Commentary): In a way, I’d say Blood Elves not getting Blue Eyes would be an indication that High Elves aren’t coming. If the devs aren’t going to put in the work to make High Elves visually distinct from Blood Elves beyond eye color, there would be too much confusion.
