How To Make Your Brown Eyes Blue
Mid Brain muses:
The folks over at C&E News are reporting on a new technology for changing your eye color. Researchers at Ciba Vision and
Bausch & Lomb have come up with a new way to change eye color that works much better than the current technology. While colored lenses have been around since the 1970`s, they haven’t worked well for making brown eyes look naturally blue.
But now by using nanotechnology (really really tiny particles) and inspiration from the wings of butterflies, even the darkest brown eyes can be made blue. And it won’t even require a breakup with your boyfriend. I’ve gotta tell you, it’s stories like these that makes this Beauty Brain proud to be a scientist.
What do YOU think? Would you wear a special pair of contacts to change your eye color?
What if you don’t wear glasses or contacts? Would you wear them just to change your eye color? Leave a comment and share your colorful thoughts with the rest of the Beauty Brains community.

Yes, I would wear colored contact lenses but ones that make a sublte change in eye color. Does anyone know if they’re out on the market yet? Where can I get them?

Brown eyes blue? What about us pale-eyed folk who /want/ rich dark ink blot eyes? I’d definitely wear coloured contacts. People ask me all the time if I do now (I don’t) but when I tried blue no one noticed!
I tried a ‘honey brown’ and looked like an alien trying to pass as human. It was awful.
Ann Says:
Yes, as a “brown eyed girl”, I would like a natural looking change.Especially if the new ones have better optical quality that the older ones. I have tried a few of the older colored ones for brown eyes, and the optical quality of them did not seem as good as the ones which are not highly colored. i.e just tinted… I have seen some of the old ones that looked pretty fake on some folks too…especially if their eyeball itself was fairly prominent. So, I hope these new ones look natural with great optics…and of course, come in great colors!
Janis Says:
Well … no. My eyes are already a strange and rather rare amalgam of brown and green, and I’m not really slobbering for the chance to look like an Aryan, thanks. I’m Italian, this is what we look like.
Karen Says:
My eyes are hazel; a combination of green, gold, and brown flecks. I get compliments on them but I wish they were more distinctive. Even though I don’t wear contacts, I’d definitely consider wearing these new lenses if I thought I could get good results.
Eileen Says:
I think my brown eyes are fabulous and just as gorgeous as light eyes. I wear contacts anyway but I don’t need a color change!
Stephanie Says:
IT’S ABOUT TIME!!!! I’ve been waiting for this my whole life. I don’t dislike my eyes but I would like to play with contacts without looking freakish. Will they have green too!!!?!?!? When will this be available to the consumer market?!?!
Stephanie Says:
Oooh beauty brains : ( That article is dated 2005. Those contacts have long been on the consumer market. I’ve tried them, they look just as fake as traditional color lenses. *crushed*
marshiemallows Says:
that’s cool. i don’t want to wear contacts though. i love my eye color.
Lauri Says:
No. I don’t even have to think about about it. I am the only one in my family with blue eyes and I love them.
Melina Says:
Nope. Eyes are the window to the soul, after all. And I like my soul just the way it is.
Shauna Says:
Honestly, no, my eyes are already a bright natural blue and it’s such a rare thing that I’d hate to cover over them. Most I do is wear clear contacts because I hate wearing my glasses.
S Says:
This article’s pretty old. October 10, 2005! Freshlook Colourblends have been available for ages. Pretty good, but still not very natural looking.
Nn Says:

Vivian Says:
