fiza Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Just read about Eyeball Tattoos. Why would anyone want to do this? BBC News - Why would anyone want an eyeball tattoo?
elsiegee40 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I couldn't even bring myself to read the article! 1
LeMarchand Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I'm not a fan of "normal" tattoos, so can't see the appeal in this at all.
Davit2005 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Just read about Eyeball Tattoos. Why would anyone want to do this? BBC News - Why would anyone want an eyeball tattoo? We all see the horror stories of Cosmetic surgery going wrong, who would want to do such a thing to their eyes just too look different. In the article someone has said "It's thinking about getting a needle in your eye that makes people say, 'I can't believe you did that.' But I've never had anyone say my eyes look scary," she says. No I can't believe you did that either but not because it makes you look scary.
hardtailstar Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Where do I sign up!..... I cant even put eye drops in my eye so cant begin to imagine getting this done!!
Joanne Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 No thanks. I'm waiting for robut upgrades. *Robutt
fiza Posted January 16, 2015 Author Posted January 16, 2015 They guy who came up with the idea tested it on some brave volunteers!!! Why would anyone want to volunteer for something like this? Its not like you are volunteering to test a life saving drug. Crazy doesn't come close!

Its not like you are volunteering to test a life saving drug. Crazy doesn't come close! I read that and thought "why not start on pig's eyes?".
pete Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I read that and thought "why not start on pig's eyes?". They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig". Probably because humans are less likely to eat you if you try to tattoo their eyes. (Yes, I know you meant from a butcher or whatever)
Sunnyknight Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 It's wierd... but something about having all around red eyes.... makes me intrigued..
Domino Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 That doesn't sound like a good time to me, and the risk of corneal damage I would assume is quite high. But, whatever people wanna do. It's certainly different
witch Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 It's wierd... but something about having all around red eyes.... makes me intrigued.. ..and very strange 1
fairm010 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I cant see how the social 'benefit' can outweigh the huge probability of permanent blindness! 1
CAM Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 It's also a very new procedure, no-one knows how this fashion treatment will respond to aging as you get older. It's already known that the gel in your eyes starts to break down as you age and having dark black eyeballs will likely make searching for styes and cataracts in old age harder.
speckytecky Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Seems totally crazy to me. Why would anyone mess with such a crucial organ, the risk of damage has got to be immense and how on earth after it would anyone be able to give an effective diagnosis of - bloodshot eyes! Seriously the eye is really a window on health and so much can be diagnosed from a healthy or unhealthy eye. Utter madness.
Garacesh Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Even as somebody going through bi-monthly painful laser surgery, I'm a fan of conventional tattoos. I plan to get more eventually, once these are gone. But this? Naaahhh!!
MrPstv Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 It's wierd... but something about having all around red eyes.... makes me intrigued.. Go to Amsterdam i am sure you will see many red eyes.... lol 1
MrPstv Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 More like your local off licence, you know the one, where all the youths hangout. Stay long enough and you too will get one. Youths,hoodlums,hoodies etc i think if i stayed long enough they would have black eyes not red eyes.
Garacesh Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 i think if i stayed long enough they would have black eyes not red eyes. "oi m8 wot u lookin at. giv uz yer fone innit." 1
claireadams Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 I have to say I have some rather odd looking friends, tongues split, horns inplanted but I don't know anyone who would risk their eyesight
korifugi Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 "oi m8 wot u lookin at. giv uz yer fone innit." One of my friends was once approached like this - his reply of "I do beg your pardon, I don't speak f***wit" had me laughing for ages.
Garacesh Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 I have to say I have some rather odd looking friends, tongues split, horns inplanted but I don't know anyone who would risk their eyesight I think tongue splitting would be the furthest body modification I'd be willing to do, coming strictly from a 'how safe it may or may not be' angle, but I don't actually want it done. Surface piercings I don't want due to their safety issues of getting snagged on things etc. I did used to have viperbites but I had to lose 'em for work and they healed up.
