I have grey-tourqoise eyes and I am almost Russianly white. I still got ton of comments on my eyes which became pretty annoying... "Omg your eyes are amazing, your eyes are your best feature, I love your eyes" to which I always reply "I know..."

I'm South European. Dark skinned? Yep, from July to September  Other cosmetic surgeries ?

After a quick search in google spain about this surgery:
http://www.drbelda.es/oftalmologia-2/los-malos-usos-del-laser-en-oftalmologia-ii.html

Link is in Spanish, is the blog from an ophthalmologist who specializes in glaucoma. Some extracts from the post (i'm translating it quickly, so sorry for the poor grammar)

"This [surgery] can have devastating consequences for the patient's vision, can produce uveitis (inflammation), glaucoma (pigment dispersion), photophobia and long term damage to the retina (due to the loss of the natural protection from the sun, which is the iris pigment), etc ..."

Then he copypastes the "legal consent" that every patient must sign in order to get this surgery. And yep, it is scary.

Have you tried using colored contact lenses? Maybe you can give them a try, so you can check if this is really worth the risks.

Good luck whatever you decide to do.

BTW, for your original question: "Have you considered other cosmetic procedures, before or after LL?" -> the only surgery I would consider is a hair transplant, if in a few years I start losing hair.

Yes, obviously you always have to sign stuff like that. When you buy antibiotics you see that there is a 1:10 000 chance for a sudden death if you take the pills..its normal.

 A couple of months ago I watched some post op videos of people who did this surgery and their eye colour stayed almost the same (they turned from dark brown to a little lighter brown). The surgery was done in Barcelona and the price was around 3000€, so they probably did it with the Dr. you read about aspirant185. If the surgery is performed with the same Dr. it won't have a large effect on your eyes, they may appear green-ish but they will probably remain brown.
Coloured eye lenses could solve the problem as well I guess.
My dad has very light green eyes (they appear alomst yellow sometimes) and my mom always says how ugly she thinks his eyes are.
Edit:
Spain has looser regulation than most other european countries when it comes to cosmetic surgeries, that's why you see most eye laser surgeries being performed there. I don't think that the surgery would be approved in germany.

Looser regulation and no professionalism in doctors and nurses and caretakers who aren't qualified. Most doctors behaving like Spanish doctors would loose their license. They don't respect rules, they lie, they don't take proper care of their patients, they forget important things (prescribing heparine shoots for some patient, activating catheter for pain for another one). Lack of proper care everywhere in Spain
