The answer

It is permissible to change the color of the eye with a laser if it is to correct a birth defect or to remove a deformity that causes psychological or physical harm, such as a difference in the color of the two eyes. However, if it is merely for beautification, it is not permissible because it alters the normal human creation. The Islamic Fiqh Council issued a resolution permitting necessary and essential cosmetic surgery, while prohibiting improving cosmetic surgery that alters the normal human creation.
