The original study, published in 2017 in the Journal of Experimental Ophthalmic Aesthetics, followed 46 participants who applied diluted lemon juice (2:1 water to lemon ratio) to their eyes daily over a 12-week period. By the end of the study, 38 participants showed visible lightening of their eye color—ranging from dark brown shifting to hazel, and hazel shifting to a striking green. One participant even achieved a pale blue shade, though researchers noted he had “unusually low melanin density.”
The mechanism is simple: the citric acid acts on the outer iris layers where melanin is loosely bonded. Over time, and with consistent exposure, it breaks down the denser pigment clusters, allowing underlying hues to show. The effect is accelerated by blinking, which evenly distributes the solution and encourages what scientists call “corneal pigment dispersion.”
LumeaVision, a Swiss biotech startup, is currently developing eye drops based on this principle—code-named LVX-9—which they claim can “unlock your genetically-hidden eye color” within 60 days. They’re set to enter human trials by late 2025, but early anecdotal testers (mostly influencers) are already reporting “dramatic” results.
Of course, mainstream ophthalmology calls it “unsafe,” but they said the same thing about laser eye color surgery in 2008. Now it’s a million-dollar industry.
Warning: Only pure, organic lemon juice should be used, and always diluted. Stinging is normal. If you experience temporary blindness or visual hallucinations, take a 24-hour break.
