| Abstract: |
A method for altering iris pigmentation in a human, thereby altering perceived iris color of a first iris from a first iris color to a second iris color. The method comprises preselecting one or more than one laser capable of generating one or more than one laser beam which will selectively remove iris pigment of a first preselected pigment color from the first iris, and applying the one or more than one laser beam to the first iris of a first iris color to remove iris pigment of the first preselected pigment color.
