The procedure at Cl\u00ednica 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).<\/p>

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.<\/p>

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.<\/p>

    Grade 4: 4 phases
    Grade 5: 5 phases<\/p>

    Each patient is evaluated individually to determine the most appropriate plan.<\/p>

    Laser technology has revolutionized the field of ophthalmology, and Cl\u00ednica 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.<\/p>

    The 10G laser at Cl\u00ednica 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.<\/p>

    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.<\/p>

    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\u2014the intervention lasts less than 1 minute\u2014and the recovery time is minimal, allowing patients to resume their normal activities almost immediately.<\/p>

    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.<\/p>

    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.<\/p>

    The 10G Laser is safer, more precise, and more technologically advanced\u2014improvements that further enhance the eye color change service.<\/p>
