A professional tattoo artist from India is begging you not to get an eye tattoo unless you work with a known expert and understand all the risks completely&mdash;and I for one am not going to argue with him.

Or is it exactly that? He also added that &quot;tear drops fall on their own for a week&quot; after the procedure, and that the specialist warned him how risky the operation would be:&quot;If the needle is inside the eye and you move your eyeballs,&quot; they told him, &quot;the sclera membrane will tear and the eye can be gone forever.&quot;Here&#39;s Karan talking a little more about the operation:Know your artist before taking a lifelong decision. #TattoographerKaran #King #artist #IndianTattooArtist pic.twitter.com/Kav5zxQ7pF&mdash; Tattoographer Karan (@Tattoographer1) September 30, 2017 According to USA Today, a spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmology &quot;would strongly recommend against&quot; getting any sort of eye tattoo. That&#39;s due the whole you-might-lose-your-eye thing. Doctors, you know?In the above video, Karan talks about a Canadian model named Catt Gallinger, who gave the world a collective cringe when she shared horribly painful photos of herself crying purple tears after an attempt to tattoo her eyeball went wrong:~*PLEASE SHARE THIS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE*~ -Sclera Tattoo- (Whites of the eye tattoo) For everyone...Posted by Catt Gallinger on Wednesday, September 20, 2017That&#39;s not even the worst case scenario, apparently, since Gallinger did not immediately lose her vision completely. Meanwhile, here are Karan&#39;s eyes&mdash;the supposed best case scenario:https://www.instagram.com/p/BaB7CZSHtIN/?taken-by=tattoographer         View this post on Instagram           Your opinion about you matters, not anyone else’s. Love &amp; embrace yourself as how you are. God created you special, don’t loose your uniqueness by trying to fit into what others will accept.
