Tattoos are more popular than ever it seems, especially since technology has made them less permanent than they used to be. Whether it's from a struggle to differentiate themselves from the crowd, a new crazy way of artistic expression, or simply because they ran out of space, some people have started getting tattoos on their eyeballs. And we're not talking about permanent makeup or anything else on the outside of the eye -- we're talking ink injected right into the cornea.

Corneal tattooing is dangerous for a number of reasons, because in addition to the usual tattoo risks the cornea version can include infection, perforation, hemorrhage, scarring, and blindness. It started as a means of repairing eye damage and covering scarring, but it's becoming a more and more popular cosmetic procedure.

So would you let a tattoo artist stick a needle in your eye? Talk about regret!

Tattoos are a fun way for many people to express themselves and exhibit some individuality, but because they're so permanent people often regret them later in life. Thankfully technology has really improved over the years, and tattoos aren't really all that permanent anymore. But just because they can be removed doesn't mean it's an easy or fast process, so why are people doing it? Of course there's the usual reasons like they stretched out or are of an ex's name, but a surprising number of people are having their old tattoos removed to make room for new ones -- essentially clearing the canvas for a new painting.

Seems like a lot of work, pain, and expense to go through over and over and over again, but to each their own!
