Instagram模特为改变眼睛颜色做美容手术,悔不当初!

2018-04-16来源:和谐英语

What a sight for sore eyes.

这是多么令人痛心的景象啊!

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岁的纳德涅. 布鲁纳是一名Instagram模特,拥有超过100万的粉丝,在接受了一场有争议的手术后,视力犹如90岁的老人了:她将硅胶植入她的眼睛,使眼睛从褐色变为浅灰色。

“Before this surgery, my eyes were completely healthy,” Bruna, who’s based in Miami, 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.”

迈阿密的布鲁纳在接受《西南新闻》的采访时说:“这次手术之前,我的眼睛是完全健康的。现在我的瞳孔再也不能适应光线了,所以我对光也非常敏感。这次手术彻底毁了我的生活。”

Retinal implants are illegal to perform in the United States and not approved by the FDA. Ophthalmologists say that they can cause irreparable damage.

在美国,做视网膜植入物手术是违法的,食品药品监督管理局不批准这种手术。眼科医生说它们会造成不可逆转的损伤。

“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. And he’s heard of Americans going to Central and South America to have the procedure. “There are definitely some patients I’ve seen that do OK with them, but I’ve also seen some real disasters.”

西奈山纽约眼耳医院的视网膜外科医生理查德.罗斯博士在接受《华盛顿邮报》采访时说:“这些植入物会堵塞眼球的正常分泌,在眼球留下疤痕,增加眼球压力,并永久性损伤神经。”他听说有美国人去中南美洲做这种手术,“我看到确实有一些病人做得很好,但我也看到了一些真正的灾难。”

The Procedure damaged Bruna’s optic nerves, and she ended up with glaucoma, an incurable eye condition that can gradually cause blindness. 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.

手术破坏了布鲁纳的视觉神经,最后她患上了青光眼,这是一种无法治愈的眼睛疾病,会逐渐导致失明。除此之外,她的眼睛一年到头发红发痒,因为身体状况,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.”

她说:“我的大部分钱都是通过Instagram账户赚到的,我不能拍照片了,一直靠着我的积蓄过日子。”
