Bilateral BrightOcular iris implants necessitating explantation and subsequent endothelial keratoplasty

Despite numerous reports in the literature of the significant ocular complications that can arise secondary to cosmetic iris implantation, individuals continue to willingly undergo this surgery. Our intention with presenting this case to the ophthalmologic community is two-fold: to highlight the ongoing clinical risk that BrightOcular devices pose, despite being marketed as safer than the older NewColourIris models, and to stress the urgency with which cosmetic iris implants should be removed from the eye.
