When CassieAnn learned there was a procedure that could permanently change the color of her eyes, she decided to fly to New York City to get it done. She had always wanted blue eyes and had been wearing colored contact lenses to change her appearance for years.
"I always wanted to have a little bit of change when it comes to the eyes," CassieAnn, who is using her first name only for privacy reasons, told Salon in a phone interview. "For people that are family, or a significant other, I didn't want to have to take my contacts out and then look different."
