Tattoo on the eyeball is a new fashion trend. Eyes after its application look very unusual. Often the practice of performing tattooing on the cornea is used not only for cosmetic, but also for medical purposes. But it is rather difficult to decide on such a procedure, because it has quite serious consequences.
How do tattoos on the eyeball?
For the first time a tattoo on the eye was made several years ago in the USA. His tattoo artist Luna Cobra performed painting his white eyeball in blue: he wanted this tattoo to make him look like the blue-eyed characters from the popular movie "Dune" in the 80s. This experiment was very successful and did not cause any side effects. Therefore, the next day Luna Cobra found three volunteers and stuffed them with the same tattoos.
To make a tattoo on the eye, the dye pigment is injected into the eyeball, directly under the thin upper layer, which is called the conjunctiva. Literally, one very small injection will be enough to cover the ink with about a quarter of the mucosa. Luna Cobra made such unusual tattoos to hundreds of people. He painted their eyes in green, blue and red. But the most popular around the world uses a black tattoo. After its implementation, it becomes difficult to determine exactly where the pupil is and in which direction the person looks.
Why not do tattoos on the eyeball?
Before you make tattoos on the eyeball, you should weigh all the pros and cons, just decide if you need such an "ornament", because you can not get rid of it. According to the masters, the application of pigment is a painless process. A person feels only a touch to the eye, dryness and some pressure. They argue that the only drawback is that many people after the tattoo have a painful burning sensation in their eyes that does not go away for several days. But in fact, this procedure causes serious side effects, so it is banned in many US states.
The most common effects of tattoos on the eyeball are:
- photophobia ;
- headache;
- increased lacrimation;
- loss of vision.
To date, there is no paint, certified to be used as an injection in the eye. Each tattoo artist chooses the composition, which he himself considers necessary. Ophthalmologists have found in their patients tattoos made of toner for an inkjet printer or car enamel. Very often after such a procedure there is an infectious infection or an allergic reaction.
