Keratopigmentation, or eye color change, is performed for two main purposes: therapeutic (treatment-oriented) and cosmetic (aesthetic). Therapeutic keratopigmentation aims to improve the appearance of corneal scars (the cornea is the transparent layer at the front of the eye) caused by surgeries, accidents, or infections. This procedure involves applying a type of corneal tattoo to a non-seeing and completely white eye, making it more aesthetically pleasing. We observe a high level of satisfaction among our patients who undergo keratopigmentation for this purpose. Additionally, if there is an injury or other reason causing a hole or opening in the iris (the colored part of the eye), keratopigmentation can cover it and prevent discomfort from light exposure.<\/p>\n

Another topic is the increasingly popular cosmetic eye color change procedure. In today’s world, people place great importance on their appearance, and aesthetic looks have become even more significant in social settings. As a result, the demand for cosmetic surgeries has increased. Changing eye color through keratopigmentation is entirely an aesthetic procedure. The current surgical technique is known as FLAAK. In this procedure, the layer that gives the eye its color is untouched; instead, laser-created channels are made within the corneal layer, and pigments of the desired color are applied.<\/p>\n

Regarding pricing, the costs of therapeutic procedures differ from those of cosmetic procedures. It is not appropriate to provide a price over the phone without seeing the patient because the use of laser and the number of pigments required vary from patient to patient. Therefore, if you are considering a keratopigmentation procedure, it is better to meet with a doctor in person rather than inquiring about prices via phone or email. Additionally, not every patient is suitable for this procedure. For this reason, our hospital does not provide prices for eye color change surgeries or other procedures over the phone to avoid any potential misinformation.<\/p>\n
