Internet news on the eye :

eye tattooing that went horribly wrong
Canadian model whose tattooing went horribly wrong.
  • Recent tattooing of the conjunctiva of the eyeball is being practised. We personally would suggest you stay away from eye tattooing. You don’t need to modify your natural status of the eye unless you are prescribed by your ophthalmologists. Recently a Canadian model tried it and it went horribly wrong.
  • Some pages on the internet claim them as sarcasm site made for laughter. These pages in the name of meme share stupid facts like Pouring fresh lime (lemon juice) in the eye to make it go green, pouring salt to make it whiter. We strongly ask you to stop trying such foolish stuff.
  • Avoid following youtube channels who claim to treat your cataracts without surgery.
  • Do not practice what stupid websites on the internet claim to cure any ocular problem with weird household made medications. The eye is a sensitive organ. You cant get another if you damage yours.
