Note: This is a THEORY! I haven't tested this out, but I have studies to back this up.
This may or may not work. Gathering results from people will only prove if this works or not.
I was scrolling through this thread right here, where it talks about a drug called latanoprost (an eye drop drug) which increased tyrosine activity and made the eyes, and occasionally skin darker.This may or may not work. Gathering results from people will only prove if this works or not.

He did mention metyrosine, which did the inverse of what I just mentioned. The right side of the chart is metyrosine and its effect on melanin in the eyes.
I found this quote in that thread that went akin to something like this "...caused by decreased tyrosinase activity". This made me wonder "...if tyrosine caused melanin production, and your body is constantly producing melanin to maintain its coloring, granted we inhibit this activity, we could achieve lighter coloring across the board." Now he did mention metyrosine, which again causes the inverse but the thing is that it may be expensive and hard to find, so I went for alternatives. I also searched up the vegan eye-changing phenomenon that sometimes happens and I have concluded that these people's diets were high in antioxidants and their diets decreased tyrosinase activity.
The way to achieve our goal is to decrease tyrosinase activity in our eyes as much as possible, therefore we need to put things in our bodies and on our eyes that will help us achieve such goals. Therefore I have formulated a theoretical eye lightening stack that definitely decreases tyrosinase but if this works on the eyes is unknown. Metyrosine is expensive so if you can't afford it, it's fine but using it would yield better, quicker results.
- Glutathione - An antioxidant that inhibits melanin production. (Should be known on this website by now)
- MSM - A supplement that has potential lightening properties due to it being an antioxidant. (Should be known on this website by now) Best taken as an eyedrop in my opinion, but can be taken as a supplement as well.
- Mulberry Extract - A herb that is a strong tyrosinase inhibitor. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21130832/)
- NAC - Stimulates glutathione. (https://www.webmd.com/diet/health-benefits-nac#1)
- Licorice Extract - Strong tyrosinase inhibitor. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12590456/)
- Resveratrol - Anti-aging supplement, suppresses tyrosinase. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23047482/)
- Vitamin C - A powerful antioxidant commonly used for skin lightening.
- Honey Eye Drops - Makes eyes appear lighter, it has slightly noticable difference but it's slow and you have to be consistent.
- Metyrosine - Decreases tyrosine activity, especially in the eyes. (Study already shown above) https://www.invivochem.com/metyrosine.html (about 1g daily, don't go over 1.5g)
- Norfloxacin - An eyedrop that is designed to treat bacterial infections but decreases tyrosinase activity in the eyes. (https://www.researchgate.net/public..._enzymes_activity_in_normal_human_melanocytes)
- MK-677 - Increases growth hormone and cell proliferation, therefore probably speeds up progress.
- Lutein and Zeaxanthin - Powerful antioxidants, Lutein is found in red vegetables, and Zeaxanthin is found in leafy greens, vegans are high in this and these are super-powerful antioxidants and pigments (Lutein is reddish, Zeanaxanthin is yellow-greenish), which are found in the eyes as well, therefore it can lighten your eyes, especially Zeaxanthin.
- (DANGER) Kojic Acid Serum in eyes. I do not know how this could play out for your eyes but kojic acid is a great tyrosinase inhibitor so it would be possible to get lighter eyes from it.
Thanks for reading!
