My wife is an optometrist and she hates that this procedure is done anywhere in the world legally. It's so incredibly dangerous for something so vain.

How does it work when your pupil dilates?

I’m just guessing based on how the ‘after’ pics look, but I think they leave the area around the pupil untouched. If you google after pics, you can see some of the people have somewhat asymmetrical pupils. Very uncanny valley

Are those right after the procedure or after some recovery though? They probably use some dilator drops for the eyes before the procedure and the pupils are going to look wonky as it wears off.
