Woman Almost Went Blind Trying to Turn Her Eyes Blue


This woman traveled all the way to Panama City to have a surgical procedure to make her eyes blue...but instead it almost made her blind.

Shenise Farrell paid $7,000 and traveled all the way to Panama City to have a surgical procedure to turn her dark brown eyes to bright blue.

But things ended up taking a turn for the worst, and UK doctors ended up performing surgical procedures to keep her from going blind.

NewColorIris is an eye implant that permanently changes the color of a person's eyes. And it all takes less than 15 minutes.

After the surgery, which Farrell claims was very painful, she was taken back to her hotel with some eye drops - and was told to buy her own painkillers.

After four days of continuous pain and no improvement in her eyesight, Farrell called a UK Doctor to have them removed.

Opthalmic surgeon Ali Mearza, the doctor who removed her implants, has been quoted as strongly advising people to NOT undergo this surgery.

NewColorIris' spokesperson says that it has performed over 600 operations since 2002, and has had only a handful of complaints.

It seems that Shenise Farrell is a part of that unfortunate handful. Needless to say, Farrell's eyes are now back to dark brown.

The things people are willing to do to change themselves now days...

My words are up.

  1. WHy does this woman hate herself? She needs to be reeducated and learn to appreciate her blackness

  2. I was reading about this a couple days ago and I came across this video about another woman and her experiences. It is really sad that we are coming to this, not just as black woman but as human beings. Why are people so unhappy with themselves that they want to put foreign objects in their body and then get upset when their body rejects it?

    Maybe I am crazy but I truly don't get it. Here is the video of a girl talking about the actually procedure and how her new blue eyes began to glow!
