Jewelry To Please The Eye
that's right. Its eye jewelry a.k.a. "JewelEye" - that's what they call it. A Netherlands organization, the Institute for Innovative Ocular Surgery, came up with these stylish platinum implants. These CEI's (Cosmetic Extraocular Implants) come in the form of hearts, stars, eurosigns, four-leaved clovers, music notes and many other shapes "on request."

Ophthalmologists shove- sorry- "insert" these jewels into the "membrane that lines the outer surface of the eyeball." I just found a video. Brace yourselves. Go on- watch it. [if for some reason it doesn't work, let me know A.S.A.P! This is a must see- hehe, I can rhyme.]
::waits for you to come back from watching the video::
I thought you might like to look at something pretty after that. So...the video... how was it?
~*~
I think this JewelEye looks pretty cool and all- but I don't think I'd get it for myself. Ever. Other reasons for not getting eye jewelry:
1) Money- It is probably very EXPEN$IVE.
2) Netherlands- the only place it can be done [I believe]
3) Risks- I'm sure there is a lot that can go wrong... *cough* BLINDNESS *cough*
4) Procedure- Did you WATCH that video?
5) Um... I don't need a five- in fact, I didn't need this little list at all, the whole "it's just not for me" thing should have been enough.

I'm itching from looking @ those "jewels". EEPS! I didn't watch the video b/c... well... GROSS! ;)
I am not certain I could do anything like that to my eyeballs. I watched Hostel and well... *cough* eyeballs are just stuff you don't mess with, yo!
That video is making me do this: Aaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!! Make it stop! Make it stop!!!
AIEEEE!!!!! That video was horrific...that's just way too over the top.
I refuse to watch the video becaue I have huge issues about eyeballs being messed with.
Ew.
Eye jewelry: possibly the most moronic thing ever invented?
heheh, my 1st trip to the Netherlands was 4,5 years ago :) I stayed in some friends I met in a greek island, they stayed at my house, so they offered to host me as well :) They are wonderful people, and very close friends of mine :)
They are really colourful, and into piercing and tattooing. The one guy, he is working in a piercing shop...well, some time ago, a very popular Brazilian piercer was working in that shop. He specialized in "body modification".
As I learned, body modification is the process of changing your body :) It can be done by many means (which I cant describe here, cause maybe you wont talk to me again). Part of these, is of course, the "implants" :) Inserting "things" in your body. I didnt see anything like this one, in the eye, but I saw photos of people who had large pieces of (dont remember the material) in them, in their hands, legs, or bodies. My friend now has a small implant, on his forehead, it looks nice. But the procedure, and the healing, as he told me, WERE NOT NICE!. For me, I wouldnt do an implant, Im just too scared to put an alien object in my body.
Just for the record, in my friends piercing shop, in average, one person per day is piercing his/her genitals. Piercing is EXTREMELY popular.
Finally, yes, implants are VERY expensive, not to tell that they are not 100% guaranteed that nothing will go wrong, because theres a possibility the body to reject the implant, and then problems start...
mmmmm if you are still interested about body modification, just drop me an email, I can fill you up with more details (not for the faint hearted hihi:D)
the whole eyeball thing makes me wanna jes vomit.
i hate this world sometimes when people do this stuff to be hip, etc.
jes makes my skin (or eyeballs) crawl
Well it is eye catching....not sure I would trust the sanity of anyone who had done it tho'
That's crazy! I'd never do that.

Jason
how could anyone risk their vision doing this?
