Risk of Infection
Eye tattooing, or scleral tattooing, is a risky body modification practice that can lead to severe infections and vision loss. During the procedure, pigment is injected into the sclera, which can introduce foreign substances and lead to inflammation or irritation. Only certified doctors or artists should perform this high-risk cosmetic procedure.
Risk of Bleeding
Eyeball tattooing involves injecting tattoos under the top layer of the sclera in various locations. There is a risk of severe bleeding during the procedure, as the ink can penetrate the conjunctiva or other tissues. While sclera tattoos may offer temporary enhancements, there are safer alternatives, such as colored contact lenses, for long-term changes.
Risk of Injury
Tattooing the eyeball is a delicate procedure that poses serious health risks. Sclera tattoos, which involve injecting dye into the white part of the eye, are an unpopular and potentially risky practice. Only professional tattoo artists should perform such procedures with their eyes kept closed to ensure optimal results and minimize the risk of discomfort and vision problems.
