Thinning of the cornea and a regular steepening of the cornea or induced astigmatism.

Yeah.

So you're giving people astigmatism.

Astigmatism, yeah.

Oh, gosh.

So it's like, no.

Oh, gosh.

Okay.

So laser deposition.

So look, you can kind of guess at this one.

So you're going to get an inflamed iris.

We know that's going to happen because you're shooting at it and loosening all this pigment.

You're going to get an elevation in your eye pressure because you've loosened all this pigment, which is now blocking off the drainage pathway.

But those are kind of temporary and you can treat them with drops.

So the patients get pressure controlling drops like glaucoma drops and they get anti-inflammatory drops after those four consecutive days and then you keep repeating them.

So in terms of longer term problems, you can end up with pupil deformities if someone's shooting it really, you know, too much.

Because the iris is what forms your pupil.

And that's the unsatisfactory colour.

So, you know, you may end up with just a grey eye.

You know, it might not have any actual colour anymore.
