Hi Discovery!

I don't have any experience of this, so please don't take my word for it - but if my eye colour was getting darker after surgery for retinopathy, I'd seek urgent medical advice in case it was bleeding at the back of the eye. Others might come along with an explanation soon, but it's better to be safe than sorry, so i'd ring NHS Direct and get some advice.
