Earlier today I went down a little rabbithole on melanin and its affect on eye color (I haven't been a fan of my t50 eyes)
I concluded well, the obvious really
Eumelanin is a type of melanin with brown/dark pigments, Pheomelanin is a type of melanin with red/yellow pigments, meaning inhibiting Eumelanin could contribute to (somewhat) lighter eyes, i've also concluded that while theres a theorhetical risk of having a bad pheomelanin to eumelanin ratio, the inhibition wouldnt affect the ratio enough to give an uncanny red/yellow appearance, and instead lighten eyes by 1-2 shades.
This is correct, the entire paragraph above is correct and I've verified it with sources, what I'm not confident or correct about is the accessability to even inhibit eumelanin in the first place, because of the ways to apply any sorts of serums or injectables, the orbitals and many layers of tissue would block off any results, I've done more research into this and have found products that could in theory work long term, but I need somebody to verify if there have ever been any methods to have things reach beyond the orbitals and tissue and disrupt melanin production, or if I'm going to have to use myself as a testing hampster
P.S. I am very financially well off, I can afford to test expensive products on myself, i just cant afford to die really
if someone sends the fucking STROMA guide in here im actually raping their brains out
