Change eye color with minor surgery - how does it work?

2. Hello,
I have read a few articles in the news
paper that the color of the eye can be
changed, permanently. By perfoming a minor
surgery ( ambulatory Care ).
Do any of you or anyone who you know how
that works, I am curious to know. Looking
to change my eye color only for esthetics
As they say " Eat for thyself and dress
for others "

I couldn't have said it better myself.
What happens if you decide one day, after
having changed your eye color, that you
would like to change it again? Are you
going to have another surgery done?
Contacts, in this case, appear far more
economical.

Yep. Contacts are a lot easier than people
make them out to be; when I first got them
the lady had me try like, three different
ways to get them in before I figured out
the one that worked for me.

Contacts Still Aren't For Everyone

Personally, although I recommend contacts
in this case, I would like it to also be
known that contacts are not made for
everyone.
I'm not sure about anyone else, but I
tried at contacts. I failed miserably. I
think my eyeballs are either too big or
shaped differently from others. LOL....

they have so many different kind of
contacts to fit your eyes 
alot of people try contacts and feel they
cant wear them or arent comfortable
you should speak with an eye doctor about
it to see if they can help you choose a
type that would be comfortable

Actually, I did go the an eye doctor. He
very patiently showed me how to put them
in his own eye; then, he put it in for me.
I kept blinking...it was hilarious. He
finally got it in.
Then, he shows me how to take it out.
Came out quite effortless, when he did it.
When I tried, I spent at least a half an
hour trying and failed. I ended up
letting the doctor put them in and said I
would try again later when I got home.
I fought like hell to get them out. I
tried for several days repeatedly and
failed. Since that, I gave up on
contacts.

I had no problem getting them out; you
just pull the edge, look away, and pinch.
Putting them in is a little more
difficult, but I use a similar method: I
look to the side, place the contact on the
white of my eye (prevents pain and
blinking!) look into the contact, look
straight forward again, then close my eye
until it stops trying to blink.

I with you on this one. I just don't do
well with things going towards my eyes.
Natural reflex, I guess. Kudos to those
that can.

I had a bona fide anxiety attack the last
time I went to the eye dr's. I ended up
laying on the floor almost unconscious and
they had to call a nurse in!
I hate going to the eye
doc. I can't imagine contacts. I would
become an alcoholic if I had to put
contacts in everyday.

I'm so weird. I really do get an addictive
adrenaline rush when I go. I like getting
tests done, having my eyes examined, etc.

If you really don't like how you look with
glasses then you would find a way to like
contacts.
My husband wears contacts, his is quite
blind so his glasses are quite thick so he
likes to wear contacts. He really wants to
have the lasik surgery and I can
understand cause I wouldn't like to deal
with contacts neither.
