I am a little bit confused now guys.
A lot of people are saying honey can't pass through the Cornea of your eyes as it's designed to act as a filter and protect the Iris.
However, what they miss is that it isn't the sticky honey and large molecules in the honey we care about, it's the 1mmol safe hydrogen peroxide entering the eyes - coincidentally honey produces this safe small ammount.
Now i want to know if hydrogen peroxide can actually pass into the iris?
I absolutely agree that honey can't, but it's not the honey we care about, it's the dilution of the honey with our tears/skin to produce the hydrogen peroxide.
Clearly, so many people testify it has lightened their eyes, so it is clearly doing something with the pigment, so the hydrogen peroxide which is a small molecule should be able to pass through the Cornea.
It's only h202, so a small molecule.
If it can pass through the Cornea, this process can indeed work. People with jet-black eyes have noticed it lightening, not one but many many individuals.
A lot of people say 'your eyes are the same from birth and can't change colour'. Your eyes can indeed lighten naturally with age - not all of us though:

"How and why eye color changes
Pigment in the stroma (the connective tissue of the front layer of the iris) gives the iris color. Iris color can lighten if the number of pigment granules in the stroma decreases or if the granules produce lighter pigment. (See figure.) The iris can also lose color if the stroma pigment degrades.
Eyes, unlike skin and hair, do not synthesize color pigment continuously. Instead, eyes retain the pigment granules and accumulate them in the iris stroma. So, if the pigment degrades, the eye color lightens.
Likewise, eyes can darken if the number of pigment granules increase or if the granules make darker pigment."
Theoretically, if you could degrade a pigment yourself in a safe-controlled manner, it could work.
Infact, i think it doesn't catch on because commercially, to use safe ammounts in the eye i.e 1ppm/mol of hydrogen peroxide, it takes months and months for it to do it's work, and on top of the skepticism about eye-lightening, probably hasn't been subjected to tests. If you used strong lasers you could damadge the eye.
So the key here is using safe controlled ammounts gradually.
The big question is, can the hydrogen peroxide get into the Iris? If so - and i see no other explanation for the success so many have had together , not just one individual- it is promising indeed.
