To tell you the truth i havent even read the article and in my opinion it boils down to this: Most of you who are calling them idiots are truly the idiots for turning something down before it has the chance to show its true potential. A lot of people (including myself) would love to have this done just for the pure looks of it. it is also a way of showing that your different as well as daring. THE RISK ISN'T THAT BIG!!!! As soon as they manage to perfect it or come as close as they will i am going to have this done to my eyes even if it assures blindness, because it would be really cool if i woke up in the morning and looked in the mirror seeing two black eyes staring right back at me. so all of you that are saying that this is a bad idea really needs to shut up because your probably saying that you wouldnt do it because your scared something will go wrong. the risk is just the same as surgery but people around the world get that done almost everyday and are fine afterwards most of the time.
