Would you change your eye colour? (Contents inside)

[Transcendence]

This is something I've been researching lately and I found something very interesting. However, this only applies to people with naturally occurring brown eyes, and it only gives you Blue eyes. There isn't a procedure to choose eye colour.

Above is the FAQ of a medical company who began research into eye colour change back in 2009. It's not even a surgery, as the contents on the FAQ will show. Many of the common eye colour surgeries involve layering another layer of iris covering on top of your natural one to artificially create the illusion that you have a different eye colour. This however, can prove very problematic, as it is very risky, some people go blind or develop things like Glaucoma or Cataracs. It's extremely invasive. However, this procedure (if you even want to call it that) is completely non-invasive and it involves no incisions whatsoever. Below is a basic explanation from the site that explains how this is possible, and in actuality, having blue eyes for someone who has brown eyes is actually naturally occurring due to the prevalence of pigments and removing them from the brown eyed individual.

2. How is the Strōma procedure performed?

The patient sits in front of the Strōma laser, and his or her head is stabilized. Each eye is treated separately. The first eye is covered, and the patient is instructed to direct his or her second eye towards a tiny light, located about one foot from the patient’s eye, while a gentle, low-energy laser scans the surface of the iris of the treated eye. In approximately 30 seconds, the procedure is completed. The procedure is then repeated to treat the first eye. In most cases, only a single treatment session should be required. We will learn more about the possible need for a second treatment session on extremely dark eyes in upcoming clinical studies.



3. How does the Strōma procedure work?

We all have blue eyes. In the case of brown eyes, however, a thin layer of brown pigment covers the front surface of the iris (the colored part of the eye). The Strōma laser disrupts this layer of pigment, causing the body to initiate a natural and gradual tissue-removal process. Once the tissue is removed, the patient’s natural blue eye is revealed.



4. Will people be able to tell I had the Strōma procedure?

The results of the Strōma procedure are indistinguishable from natural blue eyes. In fact, even a skilled ophthalmologist should be unable to tell during an eye exam.

Also, according to the studies, they haven't come up with the necessary technology that would allow them to choose eye colour (this would involve complicated pigment application beyond the naturally occurring removal of pigments between blue and brown). Although, with the advancement of technology and how fast this process is growing (they have tested and have had a high success rate already), I wouldn't put it past them to use this to allow people to choose form an array of colours.

Personally, I'm not against it. I'd love to have Blue or Hazel eyes (Hazel preferably, but I'd settle for Ocean Blue eyes )

But anyways, would you?

I have blue eyes already since I was born better

 

[Mahesvara]

Nah, my eye's are grayish blue and I'm very content with them.

And now I have a reason to hate you ;-;

And another one I can hate ;-;

 

[Yanks]

Hazel because it can turn into two different colors

 

[Fair Game]

No .

Hater's going to hate, potato's going to potate .

I too prefer Hazel. Not just because of that, but it wouldn't be completely different from my brown eyes, but be slightly lighter like I'd want them.

Want more? My eyes look like Daniel Craigs and I always get compliments on them

 

[Europa]

Nah, I think I would look weird with blue eyes. We just don't match. U_U

 

[Fair Game]

Why do we all have blue eyes?

 

[Transcendence]

Nah, I think I would look weird with blue eyes. We just don't match. U_U

I think you'd look pretty good with light brown or hazel though, haha. The real question is (and you've seen me before so I value your opinion), would I look better with blue or hazel eyes?

[lightchaos]

i enjoy my blue eyes no need to change

 

[Erin]

No.

But I'd rather have brown eyes instead of blue.

Why do we all have blue eyes?

The most simple way I can explain it; it's all about the pigments within our eyes that give us the colours in our iris'. Blue eyes have the least protection to light as a whole, which is also why many people who have blue eyes have trouble in bright areas as it makes them squint. So naturally, the blue eye colour (blue pigment is refracted off our eye giving it that colour) is the naturally occurring first layer of the eye, and it's one of the most recessive genes for eye colour because it is weakest to sunlight. This is also why brown eye colours are the most dominant; because it offers the most protection against light such as the sun, because it has an extra layer of pigments. Colours like Hazel and green have somewhere in between brown and blue when it comes to light protection, but they have slightly more than Blue and less than brown.

Another person with blue eyes! Arghhhh...

Why would you want to change such a beautiful colour? I don't like my brown eyes that much.

:l . . .

OT: I am fine with brown eyes.

 

[Dannie]

My eyes are brown, but I don't like them. I want Green eyes.

 

[Transcendence]

My eyes are brown, but I don't like them. I want Green eyes.

This is how I feel too U_U

 

[ColdSummer]

I've got sky blue eyes, and I'm quite content.

Be happy with your eyes, man! They're part of who you are.
