This is soooo sad i almost started crying.

I got the story from mediatakeout: http://mediatakeout.com/index.html


September 02, 2009. MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind of a new trend – Black people going to Panama to have an operation to change their eye color permanently. Well if you’re considering undergoing this operation, you should listen to the story of Shenise Farrell, a British woman who got it done – and regretted it.Here’s how the whole thing started (courtesy of the UK’s Daily Mail):




Miss Farrell called the US number of the New Colour Iris company, linked to a clinic in Panama run by a Dr Delary Kahn. She was told to undergo five tests with opticians in the UK to check she was suitable and then hand over $3,000 (£1,800) deposit and proof of airfare and hotel.The opticians advised her not to go ahead with the procedure but she raided her savings and flew to Central America in June, telling family she was off on holiday. ‘I’ve already had breast implants abroad in Bulgaria and had been very happy with that, so it didn’t faze me that I would have to go to Panama,’ she said.




You see … we could say a lot about that there … but we’re just gonna continue reading:




‘The procedure was unpleasant and painful. I screamed out at one point. But it was over within ten minutes and I was taken back to my hotel with just some eye drops and told to buy my own painkillers.’For the next eight days, her vision remained blurred, particularly in her right eye. When she arrived back at Heathrow, she had to be helped through the terminal because her sight was so poor.Four days later, with no improvement and after developing a painful sensitivity to light, she called NHS Direct who advised her to go straight to the Western Eye Hospital in Paddington. The woman was evenetually forced to have the implants removed by British doctors who claim that, while they saved her vision, Shenise may have cataracts in the future.And if you think Shenise’s story is uncommon, here’s the story of another woman who claims to have problems with the procedure.
