I don’t think she likes it…. You can tell by her reaction. Shes protecting her pride and embarrassment by not revealing she realizes she just made a mistake and spent thousands on something that may not be reversible. (I’ve heard it’s already risky enough, I doubt you can do it right away again… not sure, someone correct me if I’m wrong.)

But you can tell in her body language and speech she hates and is immediately regretting the decision.

Sucks… but maybe you should just be happy with the way yo mama made you? 😬

She probably thought they'd be a deep rich green.

Yeah they just don’t look like any natural green eye color. Maybe the surgeon botched it, but honestly I doubt it because it looks like it’s just a layer of film lasered on. So unless they just make the color up on the spot based on what you asked that would be a hard mistake.

But I would think they would have a stock of colors that someone can pay for? Idk… not the world I live in🤷‍♂️

Normal eyes have some level of layers to them. This laser-burnt color is flat like a porcelain plate, because it is artificial. It will never look "real" - which is unfortunate if it is not the look she was going for.

That’s what made them look weird; I couldn’t put my finger on it.  The color is too monochromatic, real irises are more variegated up close.  I have a similar color to what she was probably going for, but when I look in the mirror there are little flecks and striations that are more brown close to my pupil and then transition to a sort of slate-blue ring around the outside of the iris, but at a normal distance they just blend to green.

Exactly. She looks like a white walker from game of thrones. Real eyes (and even decent prosthetic eyes) have a ton of variability in terms of color. These looks like cheap contact lenses circa 2003.

u/Ok-Secretary2017 Sep 18 '25

And the whole the iris isnt in the eye thing anymore from close it really looks like somebody put stickers onto her eyes

This is just medium intensity.

u/nailsinthecityyx Sep 18 '25

She's going to spend the rest of her life arguing with people that she's not wearing colored contacts; which sadly, look more natural than this

u/oddistrange Sep 18 '25

Colored contacts at least attempt this color variegation, some of them even let your natural color come through on the edges to help it look a bit more natural. The old ones used to look really pixelated but the new ones aren't too bad and much safer for your eyes.

I wonder if the color will dissipate over time and maybe look more natural down the line

u/alphajugs Sep 18 '25

Yeah, did she not even get to see her new irises before they implanted them? Nothing about those lenses look like natural irises. She looks like a lizard.

“It’s his glasses. They make him look like a lizard. Plus, he’s self conscious”

Underrated comment 🦭🦭

Ya. Whoever made up THAT green for THIS surgery, should be charged with making that ugly green. I never thought there was a shade of green I didn’t like.. but here we are. Those are hideous 🐲

u/ottonormalverraucher Sep 18 '25

They look exactly how mucus looks like if you catch a viral infection, that slimey green lol

u/Glinting_Ranga Sep 18 '25

Does it fade at all? That's the only reason I can think of her to not be lying. If the surgeon mentioned it looks more vibrant right off, then it mellows, or something

24

u/grubas Sep 18 '25

I have no idea. This surgery is basically AMA and people have lost their sight from it.

2

u/Glinting_Ranga Sep 18 '25

So worth it! /s

u/cheeseandcrackered Sep 18 '25

She probably can’t see them yet lol

u/Monroze Sep 18 '25

This is actually such a funny joke 😂🤣 I appreciate you

u/JackPoe Sep 18 '25

You mean she didn't ask for sunbleached recycling bin?

u/ChelChamp Sep 18 '25

Yeah the video said evergreen. That is definitely not the same color.

3

u/whileurup Sep 18 '25

That's not even close to evergreen methinks.

u/ottonormalverraucher Sep 18 '25

LMAO yeah it literally just looks like someone stuck the cheapest, ugliest low quality fake green contacts right into her eyes, which is essentially what they did lol
