Kaleidoscope Eyes, Hurting The Eyes With Tattoo
This is a guest blog submitted by The_Prestigiator

So I guess the world is full of bored and antsy homies because guess what's new on the tattoo front?

Yes, you guessed it. Eyeball tattooing. Now, whenever you're angry you can flash those red eyes...or if your favorite color is blue you can represent your preference through your eyeballs.

I honestly am not sure about this procedure. People get crazy things done to their bodies all the time but this is the first time I've heard of eye tattooing. Mainly, it's meant for patients with corneal defects such as leucoma. However, there have been cases where perfectly healthy people have requested an eye-tattoo, just for kicks or cosmetic appeal.

Sure, it sounds entertaining for anyone who lives life on the edge and loves the feel of a needle in their eye but the risks are many including infection and damaging your sight! Also, you can't really have it removed...

Click here if you're not easily disgusted or even a teeny bit squeamish.

So, what do you make of this procedure? Would it be something you would ever remotely consider or are you just as confused as I am why someone would risk his or her health for the sake of body art?

Ahaa. That's great. I've got a worse one for you, look up "scarification" on google.

Yeah; I saw this in one of the learning channels along with the eye jewelry. But to each his or her own. I don't see why anyone would be upset with someone's choice of body art though. Live and let live...I enjoy my body art, but I did it for myself and not for anyone else to like.

That is very freaky. The process looks so painful, why would anyone ever do that. I got a regular tattoo on my arm and that hurt and bled for hours, imagine the eye.

@Primo_Levy@xanga - Scarification is beautiful, and definitely not worse.

That's idiotic. And not something that I expect would appeal to a potential employer.

i think its pretty cool. i wouldnt ever do it, though. having a bright blue/red/anycolor eye would be pretty odd. its pretty innovative though.
im a big fan of body art, especially anything that strays from the norm of tribal and butterfly tattoos... lol.

and to all the people saying it looks like it hurts... you have no nerves in your eyes or something like that, so you dont feel it. so it really wouldnt be painful at all, if it was done right.

That looks absolutely terrible. Why would you even want that? All it looks like is someone spilled paint into your eye... disgusting and tacky.

Why are people so quick to say that it's "stupid" or "disgusting", and give negative comments.

Who are these people to judge? Honestly, if you have nothing constructive to say then just shut up.
