MIAMI — A Miami-based Instagram model ruined her vision after trying to change her eye color by undergoing a very risky surgical procedure.<br /><br />According to the New York Post, Nadinne Bruna travelled to Bogota, Colombia in October 2016. There she spent $3,000 to to have medical staff injected her eyeballs with silicone.<br /><br />But the procedure went wrong and hurt Bruna's optic nerves, giving her glaucoma. <br />Brunna returned to Colombia to try and repair the damage, but it was already done. <br /><br /><br />The 32 year-old later had the implants removed back in the U.S., but her condition was irreversible. As a result, she's now got the vision of a 90-year-old.<br /><br />Brunna blames herself for what happened, telling the New York Post she was stupid and didn't do the research. <br /><br />She had to quit modeling and is now living off savings plus income earned via Instagram. Bruna has close to 200,000 followers on the site.<br /><br />Eye specialist Dr. Richard Rose told the New York Post that people wanting to change their eye color should use contact lenses as they're safe, removable and approved.
