Southern Mediterraneans are Greeks and Southern Italians. Ashkenazi Jews overlap with those populations on a genetic level, to the point where you could essentially say they’re the same.

Because that “southern med” genetic cluster has ~50% middle eastern admixture, all are less likely to have blue eyes than say ... an Anglo.

Pretty straightforward.

I’m half Jewish myself (ethnically, not culturally). I was mostly raised by my non Jewish parent. I’m the only one that doesn’t have blue eyes on that side of the family (mine are light brown / dark green). Also, none of the Jewish half of my family has blue eyes and I almost never meet any genetic Jews with blue eyes.

Yeah, I couldn't clock you dude. You look pretty Euro to me. At least from the front. I'd show a pic ... but you know privacy concerns.
