FAQs
The procedure at Clínica Eyecos consists of permanently removing the brown or yellow pigmentation of the iris using a unique laser that we exclusively have in Barcelona, revealing the natural color that everyone has hidden (light blue, silver, or light green).
All results are different, even for the same grade, so it is necessary to evaluate the eyes before treatment with our Iris scanner, which is the only suitable technology.

For more than 14 years.
More than 10,000 patients with excellent results.
Don’t worry, the eye color change procedure is non-invasive and very quick (1–2 minutes). It is performed with a laser, so it is not painful.
Yes, the Neweyes laser technique is the only one in the world with good results, capable of changing or lightening the color of dark eyes, depending on the density and hardness of the pigmentation.
The treatment is completely safe for anyone who does not suffer from any type of eye disease, such as glaucoma, keratoconus, cataracts, retinal degeneration, or uveitis, as well as for people with diabetes or any coronary or respiratory condition. It is also contraindicated if there are direct family members with glaucoma.
However, people with myopia, astigmatism, hyperopia, or presbyopia can undergo the procedure, as well as those who have previously corrected their vision problems through refractive surgery.
There are no effects or alterations to night vision.
For safety and prevention, a thin central ring is left around the pupil.
The limbal ring is a ring that appears around the iris, between the cornea and the sclera. This ring has a darker color than the rest of the iris, and it can be natural or created with a laser.
It has three elimination pathways:
Release of particles through the trabecular meshwork.
Inferior deposits that are later phagocytosed.
Removal of pigment residues in the iris by macrophages.
Vision may be slightly blurry for only 1–2 hours.
Yes, it is possible to perform the eye color change procedure on a single iris and even treat only a specific part, according to the patient’s preference.
The laser removes the anterior melanin and can lighten the eye, but it cannot enhance the color. The brightness and intensity of the color depend on the density of the collagen and your genetics.
Yes, it is possible to operate on a patient who has previously been treated at other clinics. We have many patients who come from other clinics for corrections. However, it is preferable to start the treatment at EyeCos Barcelona, as the laser is less aggressive and the results are much more attractive and natural.
You can lead a completely normal life after the procedure. You only need to avoid intense or cardio exercise for one week.
Both refractive surgery and laser iridoplasty (eye color change) can be performed, as long as a recovery period of 6–12 months is allowed between the two procedures.
18 years of age.
The number of phases depends on the degree of pigmentation of the eye, although it may vary in each individual case. As a general guideline:
Grades 1, 2, and 3: 3 phases
Grade 4: 4 phases
Grade 5: 5 phases
Each patient is evaluated individually to determine the most appropriate plan.
Each phase consists of 2 sessions carried out on consecutive days, except for the Bright phases, which are performed in a single session.
You can check the color classification according to the degree of pigmentation on our website. In addition, you have the option to perform an approximate simulation through our app: EyeCos EYE Selfie.
Laser technology has revolutionized the field of ophthalmology, and Clínica Eyecos in Barcelona is at the forefront with its innovative 10G laser treatment. This procedure is the result of more than a decade of research and development, offering a safe and effective option for eye color change.
The 10G laser at Clínica Eyecos uses a non-invasive technique that allows the modification of iris pigmentation without the need for surgery. The benefits of this procedure include not only the possibility of changing eye color for aesthetic reasons, but also improving the quality of life for patients seeking an alternative to colored contact lenses.
One of the most outstanding aspects of the new 10G laser for eye color change is its safety, with high satisfaction rates and no significant side effects.
The effectiveness of the 10G laser is also remarkable. Patients report consistent and long-lasting results, meaning that the change in iris color remains stable over time. In addition, the procedure is fast—the intervention lasts less than 1 minute—and the recovery time is minimal, allowing patients to resume their normal activities almost immediately.
With the incorporation of this new laser, we can reduce treatment time to one or two days. Furthermore, waiting times are also reduced: instead of 4 months between phases, it will now be only 1 or 2 months. Another advantage is that the treatment can be completed in one or two phases. This advancement not only increases efficiency but also allows international patients to reduce the costs associated with their stay in Barcelona.
Treatment times are significantly reduced to two days for the sessions and about two months between phases, depending on the current condition of the eyes.
The 10G Laser is safer, more precise, and more technologically advanced—improvements that further enhance the eye color change service.
