Ink injections in your eyes for tattoo decorations; are you brave enough?

Ink eye injections

This is the freakiest thing I've seen in a long time. Anyone ever see someone like this walking around?

This is permanent so if he doesn't like it or something goes wrong, he's pretty much out of luck getting it fixed.


If the guy putting the needle in his eye sneezes, he's gonna get a new nickname.

    Ive seen this IRL.. It feaked me out... But It aint my Body, so I dont care. :)

    If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude; greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.
    —Samuel Adams

    I saw something on TV about this, takes some pretty solid balls to have this done.

    Oklahoma just recently banned this practice, only years after first legalizing tattoo and piercing parlors. I fully agreed with both acts of legislation.

    What is the point?

    We have colored contacts that do pretty much the same thing, plus they are removable and changeable.

    Don't you worry little buddy. You're dealing with a man of honor. However, honor requires a higher percentage of profit

    If you ask most people which "sense" they'd absolutely hate to lose, probably in any poll hands down would be "sense of sight".


    I have no idea why these people would risk that. Especially given what they are doing with all the tattoos and piercings is to LOOK at.


    I mean, suppose one of these guys go blind. Now they have all these tattoos on their body and cool looking eyes that they can't see. It kind of defeats the whole point of getting tattoos in the first place after that.

    The link shows a guy getting black dye in his eye. The look at the end in one eye is almost like a demon or a zombie's eye if you watch it.

    Thats crazy. I wonder if injecting all that stuff into your eye gives you eye floaters. I know i have at least 2-3 in my left eye that are annoying. I'd go insane with a bunch of blue dots floating in my line of sight.

    Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!

    Well, look on the bright side.  When someone, who has this done to their eyes, says they can see pink elephants, then you can believe them without thinking their drunk or insane.

    Anyways, on a more serious note, this should seriously be looked at and regulated.  It is not tattooing... it's a medical proceedure.

    1. The risks for physical harm are much greater with eye coloring (better name for it) than with body tattoos.  Blindness and infections vs. just infections with tattoos.  Risk of infections can be monitored and prevented with proper cleaning and maintenance of instruments.  If a tattoo artist screws up, then he or she might be able to recover and still make the tattoo work.  If a eye colorer screws up... you're blind.  No recovering from that.
    2. No reversing eye coloring, unlike some body tattoos.  And, you can't cover up an eye tattoo if you decide to change careers.  Unless, of course you wear shades all the time while at work.  But, I'm betting a lot of bosses would frown upon that type of behavior.

    There's a reason why Oklahoma banned eye coloring, after lifting their 40+ year ban on tattoos and piercings.  It's an extremely dangerous procedure that has a lot more in common with medical procedure than tattooing.

    I wonder what it would look like if he got some yellow one, or some with a type of dye that glowed in the dark?

    If I saw a guy with yellowish neon-like eyes after turning the corner, I don't think I'd think he had dye in his eyes. I'd probably run or start swinging pretty wildly.
