eye jewels

for 500 to 1,000 euros and in just 15 minutes, you can get a "jewel" implanted in your eyeball; to be exact, in the conjunctiva (the mucous membrane lining the inner surface of the eyelids). it's so popular already that there's a waiting list. it's made out of platinum and available in the shape of a heart, half moon, a star or circle.

I can't believe this is so called art. I work at an Ophthalmology practice, eyeballs are what we see all day, everyday & I've never come across this. Must be a European thing? I don't get it, why would someone want a jewel stuck to their eye? Please don't mess with your eyes!
