I can’t imagine this is going to be a trend or anything, but I’ve seen a few more eyelid piercings lately, in addition to the one from Bulgaria posted a few days ago, this reader in North Carolina describes this as their favorite piercing.
In Tennessee I think they’re a little more cautious, at least in this horizontal placement — basically just a surface piercing on the eyelid — by Darby at Great American Tattoo Company in Kingsport.

This is a risky piercing but if people realised the risks and are aware of the ramifications of their decision…why not!?!
The first picture is beautiful, the second is not to my taste particularly but I’m sure the girl who’s just had the piercing is thrilled, I hope it heals well.

that first eye is amazing looking. id love to hear from someone that has this piercing to know how irritating it is though, also i want to know what the chance for perminant damage is

i realize throwing statistics around about cars and cellphones in someway validfies points with you guys, but driving a car and putting body jewelry THRU YOUR EYE LID, and possibly risking BLINDNESS is two entirely different things…as for banning risky endeavors? I am not saying call in a world wide ban on eye lid piercings…it would just be nice if COMMON SENSE would actually for once become a factor…but whatever…when this becomes an issue, and someone looses the use of their eye sight from having a piece of jewelry scratch against their cornea all day, causing infection…i’m sure these statistics will be very helpfull…
geez…did it occur to anyone that certains applications, while you have the freedom to perform them, are just not in anyway safe or the slightest bit practical? i’m not running under pics of implants or facial tattoos and saying anything…i do believe you have the right to adorn your body how you choose…but i am well within my right as a trained professional-IN PIECING for 10 years, to point out when something is just not a good idea…if it will leave you with mobility impediments (like say BLINDNESS) then its likely a BAD IDEA…and you can hurl all the statistics you want at me on how my cell phone is killing me-it will still be a BAD IDEA…what would be a GOOD IDEA, and helpfull to those modification artists out there, whose freedom you worry about infridging on-is perhaps if while showing these pictures(that will make all the scene kids run out and want one) you perhaps let these kids know what their risking, because i suspect that their not getting the whole story in some of these situations…that way they can have a more informed choice in their blindness 🙂 it would also be considered well rounded journalism-because all your angles are covered…
and i cliff dive up to 50 feet almost every summer and have TONS of speeding tickets under my belt…i’m not moderation mary or safety sally over here…just someone who has an opinion in a debate. what’s that saying that mother’s always tote? oh yeah…”ITS ALL FUN TILL SOMEONE LOOSES AN EYE”

I don’t think I would ever be able to have this piercing. Even when I wear eye makeup I alway forget and rub/scratch my eyes, and even getting mascara in them sends me into an itch-cazed frenzy, so I can just imagine the horror and carnage that would result from me getting an eyelid piercing…

I don’t know. I don’t really see the dangers other then perhaps irritation. The piercing is far enough to the side that you aren’t risking scratching the cornea or the lens or anything like that.
And the eyelid seems to be elastic enough that it could be pulled far enough away from the eye during piercing to minimize the risk of getting a needle in the eye.
I think some of the reactions are a bit over the top. I understand the initial feelings of wow, thats scary. Its way close to the eyeball. I felt the same way too. And I still wouldn’t do it. But I don’t think it would be as risky as I initially thought.
Its funny that someone mentioned you are never even supposed to touch your bare eyeball. When I got contacts a long time ago, the doctor told me to practice for a week just touching the corner of my eye, in approximately the same place these piercings are.
In response to “just cause you can doesn’t mean you should” I would like to reply with “just cause someone said you shouldn’t doesn’t mean its bad.” (Thats not a personal attack on your Laura, just a response.)

Jessica, even if the hole closes to 16g (which is a very small entry point) I doubt it would let in more hazards then say a normal eye thats open?

so you need a hole in your eye while you sleep? ive yet to see a valid reason for someone to put their eye health, and thus sight at risk.

actually I personally think the Horizontal one would have a much better success rate if placed properly. As its in an area that plastic surgeons are literally often removing pieces of when giving people eye/brow lifts….I’d say maybe a 16ga or 14ga flat surface bar would be suitable there. and it wouldn’t put any serious pressure on the cornea,etc.
again though I think these should only by experienced/knowledgeable artists.
Matt: Looks can be deceiving I assure you that there is most definitely pressure being applied to the cornea, which is the worst part…Not so much about the scratching,etc. Also it increases the chance of debris getting into the eye, that’s where the irritation/scratching can occur.

the ONLY concern would be “droppy eyelids” like what you see with older generations of people…although I might say that this piercing is probably not catered to that generation, more so the young and still in the “superman/woman” view..(ie: “nothing will harm/kill me”)

the “…”Do not touch, press, or rub the eye itself” was from the list of eye injuries, i believe that’s in reference to having a foriegn object obstructing it…the jewelry would no doubt rub against the eye whenever she will blink…you don’t think that elevates the risk of scratching the surface of the eye? if say the jewelry retained any nicks during insertion, there’s an elevated risk for that to happen…i’m just saying its a bad idea…the picture’s cool, but i doubt it lasted that far past that point…but whatever…do what you want…its your eye ball…as for the surface lid…i just don’t know…that’s brave…but when they showcase different mods that are potentially disabilitating, perhaps they should do more to list the possible risks…just in case interested parties need to hear it again…

jessica, yah but how many “harmful” things are going to creep into a tiny almost closed hole on the side of the eye. Anything small enough to get through there will surely get washed out by the tears the eye makes – dust, sand small particals would wash out much like they do if you get sand in your eye. This happens even when your not awake.(For example if you wear makeup the stuff you find in the cornnor of your eyes when you wake up is what your eye is flushing out while your sleeping)
Now if they go trying to shove tapers, rings, posts ect through the hole then yes you could risk poking your eye or scratching it but I hope theyre not doing that randomly while awake and deff not when theyre sleeping.
Im not saying I would get this done myself- I think it would annoy the hell out of me haveing something hanging from my eyelid but the “hole” argument isnt the reason it would stop me from doing that. I dont see risks in getting things inside the eye from the tiny hole a piercing would leave behind once taken out.
Now saying the eye could be damaged from the jewlery rubbing up against the eye, catching on something, being hit into the eye and what not makes sense to not get it done. But the chances of having something get into the hole are next to nill. Reminds me of the things my mom would tell me so I wouldnt get the piercings I wanted.
oye this got way longer then I wanted !!

#37: You also have to remember that the areae will almost always show irritation/inflammation from it viewing the jewelry as dirt/dust/debris .
if you look closely at the picture its pretty red and crusty,etc…Which makes me wonder why she’s wearing make up as well as how old is it in the picture,etc.
To me its not about getting shit inside the piercing, although the rotation of jewelry in the eyelid can aid in bringing bacteria into the pathway…My worry is the over-working of the tear ducts,etc which are constantly thinking there is something in the eye.
Plus constant pressure can augment the shape of the eye which can also distort your vision,etc. Much like they have medical situations/concepts to warp cornea’s to a better shape for better vision.

MATT: “Its funny that someone mentioned you are never even supposed to touch your bare eyeball. When I got contacts a long time ago, the doctor told me to practice for a week just touching the corner of my eye, in approximately the same place these piercings are.”
i’m just curious as to when you got contacts. i just started wearing them a few years ago and my doctor said there was absolutely no reason to touch your eyeball when wearing contacts – they should be removed only by touching the actual lens and moving them should only be done through a closed eyelid. i’m not saying i actually follow all of these (i directly touch the lens to reposition it), but i didn’t know if doctors had changed their tune over time or if it just varies from doctor to doctor.
that being said, i imagine the irritation would drive me nuts, although her eyes are very beautiful (i’m assuming it’s a girl based on the eyebrow – sorry if i’m wrong!). i would really like to see the second piercing with the eye open – i feel like that’s how the piercing is meant to be seen, anyway.
