美國女子做瞳孔變色手術卻幾乎失明

Nadinne Bruna, a 32-year-old Instagram model who has more than a million followers, has the eyesight of a 90-year-old after undergoing a controversial procedure: She had silicone implanted in her peepers to change her eye color from brown to light gray.
32歲的納德涅·布魯納是一名Instagram模特，擁有超過100萬的粉絲，在接受了一場有爭議的手術後，她的視力猶如90歲的老人了：她將硅膠植入她的眼睛，使眼睛從褐色變爲了淺灰色。

"Before this surgery, my eyes were completely healthy," Bruna tells South West News Service. "My pupils, they can't adjust to light anymore, so I'm very photosensitive now too. This surgery completely f–ked up my life."
布魯納在接受《西南新聞》的採訪時表示：“這次手術之前，我的眼睛是完全健康的。現在我的瞳孔再也不能適應光線了，所以我對光也非常敏感。這次手術徹底毀了我的生活。”

Retinal implants are illegal to perform in the United States and not approved by the FDA. Ophthalmologists say that they can cause irreparable damage.
在美國，做視網膜植入物手術是違法的，食品藥品監督管理局不批准這種手術。眼科醫生稱這會造成不可逆轉的損傷。

"The implants interfere with normal fluid leaving the eyes, which causes scarring, increases pressure and damages the nerves permanently," Dr. Richard Rose, retina surgeon at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai, tells The Post.
奈山紐約眼耳醫院的視網膜外科醫生理查德·羅斯博士向《華盛頓郵報》透露：“這些植入物會堵塞眼球的正常分泌，在眼球留下疤痕，增加眼球的壓力，並永久性損傷神經。”

The Procedure damaged Bruna's optic nerves, and she ended up with glaucoma, an incurable eye condition that can gradually cause blindness.
這次手術破壞了布魯納的視覺神經，她最後患上了青光眼，這是一種無法治癒的眼睛疾病，會逐漸導致失明。

On top of that, her eyes were constantly red and itchy for a year, and she had to stop modeling jobs because of her condition.
除此之外，她的眼睛發紅發癢長達一年，而因爲身體狀況，她不得不停止了模特工作。

"I make most of my money through my Instagram account and I couldn't do photo shoots," she says. "I've been living on my savings."
她說道：“我大部分的錢都是通過我的Instagram賬戶賺到的，如今我不能拍照片了，只能一直靠着我的積蓄過日子。”
