May 5, 2012 Corneal Tattoo

CaliforniaMama · 05-05-2012, 10:42 AM

Corneal tattooing has been around for about 2,000 years. It is used to correct defects like corneal scarring and leucomas. It isn't done much anymore because most people use contact lenses for correction, but it is still an option.

This is much more imaginable than Cornmeal Tattooing. I still can't imagine what that is.

That needle is nowhere near the cornea. But it will give me nightmares regardless.

I think I saw something like that in a Paul Verhoeven movie. He was on an eyeball impaling kick for a while, as I recall.

A sign that you've got too much money: You pay a stranger to do something painful, and possibly dangerous, to your body just so you can look uglier.

I'm sure the cornmeal is just going to cause a huge ass abscess, not to mention the size of the frigging needle that will inject the cornmeal under your skin.

And what about the color palette? There's yellow, white, red, blue, and green cornmeal.
