Model's decision to tattoo eyeball ends in partial blindness and excruciating pain

WARNING: CONTAINS GRAPHIC IMAGES. Purple is Catt Gallinger’s favourite colour.

Pictures of the Canadian model often showed her sporting purple hair or purple lipstick, or the purple tinge of her numerous tattoos peeking out from beneath a tank top.

So when the already heavily inked Ottawa resident had the opportunity to “tattoo” her eyeball – a procedure called sclera staining, in which ink is injected into the white part of the eye – she chose the colour purple.

Sclera staining can result in a startling tint of the eye, a visual effect that has gained popularity recently among those who practice extreme body modification. But for Gallinger, something went horribly wrong.
