Can you permanently change your eye colour?



A physician in Laguna Beach, CA, has developed a laser treatment named Luminese that removes the brown pigment that sits on the outer layer of the eye to reveal the blue layer below. The treatment only takes 20 seconds, and after the brown pigment is removed from the iris, the blue gradually appears within a few weeks. The physician, Dr. Gregg Homer, told KTLA vision is not affected by the treatment, however, the brown can never be returned or grow back.

Clinical trials are the next step to bringing this procedure to the masses, which could take about three years- would you do it?
