This relatively new procedure has become quite popular in the recent years. Artificial iris implants are now getting people’s attention, perhaps mainly because of the unbelievably amazing results patients have had with such procedure.
The graft is called Bright Ocular and it’s a United States developed artificial iris implant made of a thin, flexible, biocompatible, colored medical grade silicone which has been developed to alter iris appearance for medical and cosmetic purposes.
The intraocular implant is used to treat or alleviate cases of heterochromia, ocular albinism, and other iris-related abnormalities by protecting the eyes from the harmful effects of sunlight in patients who suffer from high levels of photosensitivity.
The United States patent approved artificial iris implant covers up iris defects such as coloboma, aniridia, severe iris atrophies, iridoschisis, and also allows for the change in eye color for cosmetic reasons.
The BrightOcular implant is placed in the anterior chamber of the eye to cover, thus change the appearance of the iris.
The revolutionary implants are able to…
decrease photophobia and project the form of a healthy iris for patients with irregular iris appearance.
For those individual looking to alter their eye color, this implant serves as an alternative to colored contact lenses for those wishing to achieve permanent cosmetic results.
The BrightOcular procedure cost is usually around $10,000, however, at demand increases, so do price deals and discounts. Some patients say they’ve had it done for as low as $6,000.
