Laser Eye Surgery - Colour change


Expert: Dr Anand Shroff, MD, FICS - 5/9/2008

Question
Hi,
I have been reading through your answers on eye colour change and have also looked on the site for new colour iris. I am just wondering if you know how much this procedure is as I would like to have it done & can't find an answer for this on your page.
Sorry if you have to repeat yourself.


Regards,



Kiera

Answer
Hi Kiera,

Its is not a problem to repeat myself, so don't apologise for that.

Regarding a permanent change in eye colour, there have been many internet related articles on the same basically procedures being done in Russia. However, I have failed to find any center which is well known to advocate this.

I personally do not believe that this is possible without damaging some delicate structures in the eye, so would advise againast any such claims on the net.

The temporary methods like coloured contacts are a much safer option.

Hope this helps,
Regards,
Dr Shroff
