When you search on the internet about eye color change surgeries, you may come across a lot of information and methods. However, most of this information is based on old and outdated techniques. In this article, you can find information about current methods and points to consider.
What is Eye Color Change?
Eye color change surgeries are performed by placing pigment in the cornea of the eye for aesthetic or therapeutic purposes. Today, one of the most common and reliable methods is the FLAAK (Femto Laser Inserted Channel) technique.
Beware of Old Ways!
Many pages on the internet talk about old and now abandoned techniques for changing eye color. Some of these are
- Colored iris implants
- Laser iris pigmentation reduction
These methods are unsatisfactory in terms of both reliability and permanence and are rarely preferred.
Permanent Eye Color Change: FLAAK Method
The FLAAK method is the most effective and modern technique for permanent eye color change today. During this procedure:
- Femto laser opens a channel in the cornea.
- Pigment of the desired color is placed in this channel.
While the FLAAK method is often preferred for aesthetic purposes, it can rarely be applied as a therapeutic procedure. For example, it can be used to correct the aesthetic appearance of individuals who have a difference between eye colors as a result of an accident.
Things to Consider About the FLAAK Method
- It is a Permanent Procedure:
Eye color change is an irreversible method. For this reason, you should think in detail before the surgery and clarify your decision. - Color Selection:
Color selection can be made with simulations made in computer environment. However, although the post-processing results are close to the simulation, they may not be exactly the same. - Change over time:
Slight fading or tonal changes in pigments may occur over time.
Who is Eye Color Change Surgery Suitable for?
This surgery is usually suitable for
- Those with good eye health,
- People who have never had eye surgery such as LASIK or SMILE,
- Those who do not have any other disease in their eyes.
