I cannot imagine what they will be doing in the future, Ive heard a few people say they think gene modification is the next big thing, people getting animal features, like tails, fur, fangs, etc. Not sure we are there yet to be able to do this, but I guess if someone had the cash and desire to get it done, anything is possible.

One of the things they're implanting, are silicone iris discs. Not here, though (yet). One woman sought the surgery in another country, supposedly to have a "lighter brown" implant. She opted for blue when they claimed to be "out of" light brown. Problems soon ensued, and it wasn't pretty.

Fortunately one of the girls in the gang covered me with beach towels, so that I didn’t get burned, but in all my nutty moments on this Earth, I’ve never EVER, considered getting a tattoo on any part of me, let alone my eyeball.
Something tells me tattoo removal technology will be booming in years to come, all these younger people that are getting tattoos, will eventually want them taken off. Laser removal is out of most peoples price range, so there will be a HUGE demand for a do it at home alternative!

Never thought of that but you are so right. Hope technology improves too or there will be an awful lot of 50+ women looking like faded comics left out in the sun. Some have so many tats they could have been employed as a tattooed woman in the old carnivals.
