Surgeon pioneers new technique to CHANGE the colour of the iris


Coloured contact lenses are all the rage and now one surgeon has designed a permanent way of changing people's eye colour. The procedure, called artificial iris implant, involves inserting a thin, medical grade silicone implant into the eye to alter the appearance of the iris.

It was pioneered by Dr Kenneth Rosenthal, of the Island Eye Surgicentre in Long Island, New York.



The artificial iris implant can be used for cosmetic reasons but it can also be used to treat some medical conditions, such as heterochromia - a pigment condition which causes a person to have one eye a different colour to the other.
In some cases, the procedure can even be used to restore sight.
Dr Kenneth Rosenthal has pioneered the procedure which takes 15 minutes per eye and is carried out under local anaesthetic


The procedure involves making a small incision in the cornea before inserting the implant into the eye and moving it into position
