Quest for Eye Color Modification

This book examines the existing modalities of changing the color of the eye with their limitations. There has been no possible way to change the color of the eye with the “natural looking” result as of today. There have been many years of research and trials due to the immense public desire to be able to change the color of their eyes without success. From topical eye drops and colored contact lenses, to the more aggressive treatments such as laser ablation, corneal tattooing, or even iris implants, all have been tried and failed to achieve a “natural looking” result.

This book explains the reason for the failure of each of these approaches without bias and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each of these modalities. The book will cover the need for new approaches and new equipment and instruments that are necessary to achieve the goal of being able to modify the color of the eye to “look natural”. Chapters will also explore the scientific theoretical possibilities of achieving the task of eye color modification, in hope that future researchers have a blueprint for their studies and experiments to overcome this very difficult task

1. ​Kambiz Thomas Moazed, MD 

After graduation from medical school, he completed a year of research fellowship in eye pathology at the department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University Hospital in California

Under direction of Dr. Peter Egbert. He then completed a year of residency in General surgery at Stanford University, at Stanford medical center in California.

He then followed his interest in ophthalmology and completed another year of fellowship in eye pathology at Harvard medical school department of ophthalmology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary Under direction of Dr. Daniel Albert. He then completed the ophthalmology residency program at the Harvard University at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and was graduated in 1982. Dr. Moazed has received his Board certification from the American Board of Ophthalmology in 1983.He then completed a year of fellowship in ophthalmic plastic surgery, orbital surgery and lacrimal duct surgery at Edward Harkness Eye Institute at Columbia University under the direction of Dr. Stanley C. Cooper. Then he became affiliated with Columbia University in New York City and became associate clinical professor at Columbia University and was in charge of teaching residents in eye pathology and ophthalmic surgery at St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital centers in New York for 25 years. At the same time period he became the director of oculo-plastic surgery and orbital surgery at Harlem Hospital under affiliation to Columbia University for 15 years. 

He has received a patent for his invention of the laser tear duct probe and tear duct insert, and has been one of the pioneers in introducing laser assisted Lacrimal duct surgery for tear duct obstruction. He has received another patent on eye color modification of the iris and currently working on 3 other patents on the latest approaches to modify human eye color. He started to collect all the knowledge that he has collected in the past 35 years in a book that is titled “The Iris, Understanding the Essentials” The book which was published by Springer Publishing company in August 2020. His second book "Quantum Biology of the Eye, Understanding the Essentials" which explores the merge of quantum physics with Biology was published in 2023.

Dr. Moazed has over 40 years of surgical experience in NYC. At present he is an active surgical attending at Manhattan Eye and Ear and Throat Hospital and at Mount Sinai Roosevelt/St. Luke’s Hospitals.
