um...yeah that just doesn't seem like a good idea to me, but hey whatever floats your boat

[AngelikDemonik]

It doesn't look very neat, it kinda looks like a little kid took magic marker and went to town. But, yeah, to each his own.

I did see something I think is kind of cool regarding eye mods: extraoccular implants: http://www.hippocratech.com/cei2.jpg

I hate to see the infection that might comes of either of those, though...

[KontanKarite]

Brave people. After suffering two nearly blinding injuries to my left eye, I have absolutely no intention of ever doing something like this. My eyes work and I'd never want to run risk of hurting them, let alone enduring the recovery time it would take to heal those kinds of mods.

[Maldarion_Haliax]

Yeah when I first heard of this I thought it would be koo,but I agree with Kotan,I don't think the benfit outwheighs the risk.

[Cen0bite]

Well, they are in the experimental stages.
And there's another page in the site somewhere cautioning people to not try it.

[DeathToLems]

Oh no no no no. What the hell is this madness!!1
I've seen the implated heart before. I think I even saw them do this on some program on tv. I prefer to keep my eyes clear from any foreign objects and liquids thank you.
O_o

[sadistically_romantic]

I've seen people with eyes tattooed to their EYELIDS. That just looks crazy. Ironically enough with Kontan my father is fully blind in his left eye. He got glass in it at age 8 and lost all sight. After seeing what he went through I'd pass.

[emeraldlonewoulf]

He seems to be trying a bit too hard to look like he's from Arakis. ( Dune)

[ThreeEyesOni]

I think I'll stick to full sclera contact lenses.

[ForgetThisLostLenore]

I could never handle this. I hate people messing with my eyes, always have. Perhaps it's because near everytime I go for my eye exam, they test the pressure in my eyes around 4 times each. The pressure tends to get a little high apparently, and I've got glaucoma history in my family. Last time they number my eyes and used this weird little thing.

But yeah, I would never purposefully stick anything but my contacts in my eyes.

Yeah, ditto. Also, how would one remove something like that? If you change your mind years later?

[(heartofflames)]

My eyes are watering just thinking about it and looking at the pictures....
Aish.... why the hell would anyone do something like that....

[Tea and Cake or Death]

....and I am officially grossed out.

[Renatus]

I can just imagine it
-tattoo artist- so how do you spell your girlfriend's name? *apprentice open alcohol wipe to clean things up sudedenly it sqirts in the artist's eye* ahh! *he accidentlaly shoves the needle into the customer's brain*dammit * drags body out to the growing pile in the basement*.
Yeah I know there are probobly inaccuracies in that but there is little I know of tattooing and even less about tattooing the eyeball.

Funny, I was just remarking to myself as to how it looked similar to how I would imagine the eyes of the Ibad to look like.

Still, fuck that for a joke.

[TopHaggardDoll]

The experimented with eyeball tattooing aaaaages ago.

I don't think it's gunna hit the mainstream anytime soon.

[Oddity85]

Tattooing ones eye sounds like a great way to get a mention at the Darwin Awards.

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw your link. An infection in the eye can cause so many problems, many causing permanent damage and even blindness.

[Zerachiel]

I actually read about this a long time ago. It's highly cautious, most won't tattoo your eye unless you're blind in it or what not. Very interesting though. ^^

[prophecyofdoom]

This seems like pure stupidity to me. Like cervix piercing, on that same site.

[††BlackRose††]

I don't think that this would be a good idea at all. I mean you have some serious vision issues couldn't you? Plus it would hurt like HELL so i wouldn't do that. Not my cup of tea, but hey everyone has their own choices.

[chelseagirl]

Jesus, this dude should take whatever money he is spending on his "eyeball art" and get his damn teeth fixed instead.

Lol, at least if he tattoos both of his eyeballs blue, maybe 5 years from now he'll be blind...and he won't have to look at his jacked up teeth anymore.

Why was the cervix piercing stupid?

The woman who did it is a piercer and was fully aware of the risks and how to perform the piercing.

Even eyeball tattooing, the people who did it are fully aware of the risks. Some people like to experiment with their bodies and change them as they wish...

[ThreeEyesOni]

I hadn't browsed that blog for a long time, so I went back a few months.

I hit my limit at a picture of a man eating his own bloody removed testicle.

Check please.

[prophecyofdoom]

Why is the cervix piercing stupid? Well, she is risking dangerous and uncomfortable infection just to have a bit of shiny metal deep inside her vagina. Call me crazy, but that seems pretty damn stupid.

I'm not too keene on the animal piercings, either.
