Is getting an eye tattoo on the cornea a safe way to change the appearance of eye color? Corneal Tattooing (Keratopigmentation) has gained more attention recently and people are asking what it actually is.
Corneal Tattooing has actually been around for centuries. In more recent years, it has been a procedure that can help the cosmetic appearance of corneal scars or white corneas. It can also help with symptoms of glare and light sensitivity in those with iris wholes or defects. Lately, using a femtosecond laser, which is the same laser used in a Lasik procedure, it has been used to change the color of the cornea, which changes the appearance of eye color. Outcomes have been ok, but there isn't any long-term data with this type of keratopigmentation, and it is currently not fda approved in the united state. Other procedure options include silicone iris implants or laser depigmentation, which both can possibly be more dangerous, and is also not approved in the United States.
