Put that twinkle back in your eyes – literally

eyetwinkleHollywood is more than swimming pools and movie stars, we’re also full of hair extensions, cosmetic surgeons, and marijuana. Although we don’t all live in a world where people want to lift this, tuck that, and whiten those, there are some simple procedures that us regular people might get done. A little chemical peel, teeth whitening, or botox never hurt anybody. Well, there’s a new unique procedure on the block that is sure to raise some eyebrows.  It’s called I-Brite and it does what it says – make your eyes appear brighter and fresher. This revolutionary procedure is currently only available from Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler of Beverly Hills.

A key candidate for this procedure would be someone who suffers from reoccurring red eyes. Red eyes as we all know result naturally from pollution, sleep deprivation, smoking, and anything that irritates the blood vessels in the eyes. Typically, our eyes should clear within a few days, but for millions of Americans that suffer from chronic red eyes I-Brite will give patients that fresh look they desperately need when drops don’t do the job. As a side note, the majority of eye-drops on the market are BS and can actually make eyes worse, when in doubt go with preservative free and check with your Dr.

As with all procedures I was skeptical about results, but before and afters don’t lie and it takes as little as two weeks to see noticeable results. A great example of beforeafterIbritesomeone who received I-Brite is Sandra, a regular person like you and I. You can view her full testimonial on Dr. Boxer Wachler’s website here, where she says: “I’ve been dealing with this probably for the last three years. I had a lot of irritation; it was uncomfortable and created a lot of redness. It was something I constantly tried to deal with – I Afterwent to many eye doctors who prescribed drops and tests.”

Sandra was eventually referred to Dr. Boxer Wachler, who diagnosed her as an ideal candidate for the new eye whitening procedure.

“[The procedure] was pretty quick…by week two you really start seeing an amazing change in your eyes,” adds Sandra.“My eyes became whiter, less uncomfortable, and less sensitive to light – I no longer wear makeup because my eyes look so pretty!” (Those are not Sandra’s eyes below, but another example)

I don’t know about no longer wearing makeup (we are part beauty blog after all), but I do think I-Brite will help those that suffer from chronic red eyes. This isn’t no run of the mill Ophthalmologist either, Dr. Boxer Wachler has a large list of celebrity Lasik clientele including: Lucy Lieu, Seal (Heidi Klum’s baby daddy), Derek Fisher (LA Lakers) to name a few.

No celebrities are able to go on record for the I-Brite procedure as of yet, but with marijuana dispensaries on every corner in this town I’m sure that some will have the procedure on their list. Since no one noteworthy can be mentioned, I’d like to provide a few recommendations:

KristenStewart_bikini

Kristin Stewart of Twilight fame is full of angst and if she likes it or not has become a role model to America’s youth (we’re doomed).

2496-MatthewM

Matthew McConaughey hopefully isn’t Dazed and Confused anymore after being caught bongo playing and bong hitting, but he can look pretty tired at times especially now that he’s a daddy.

Cameron Diaz could probably use a nice fresh face pick me up, especially when she got caught smoking in this photo.

While that is all just for fun, it’s best to request a consultation from Dr. Brian Boxer Wachler to determine if I-Brite or other eye procedures are right for you.
