Eyeball Tattoo Risks

Please read our page dedicated to eyeball tattoo risks:

The known risks include, but are not limited to:

Perforation of the eye which can lead to blindness - the sclera is less than one millimeter thick
Retinal detachment - urgent medical condition that may leave the patient blind
Endophthalmitis - infection inside the eye, that can lead to blindness
Sympathetic ophthalmia - an autoimmune inflammatory response that affects both eyes and can result in blindness
Transmission of blood borne virus - for example Hepatitis B and C, and HIV from quipment that is not cleaned properly
Bleeding and infection at the injection sites
Delayed diagnosis of medical conditions - as a result of the true colour of the sclera now being hidden, ex: jaundice is often a first symptom for many diseases
Adverse reactions to the ink
Sensitivity to light
Staining of the surrounding tissue - due to ink migration

The long term risks are not yet known. It is important to note that it is unlikely that the techniques that can be used to remove skin tattoos could be used on the eyeball. Removal of the tattoo is therefore likely impossible.
