There are countless ways to puncture your skin with a metal stud or needle. The face is a popular place to start, and the eyes in particular. Piercings on or near the eyebrow, tear ducts and between the eyes are fairly common. Some have tattooed their eyelids and even their eyeballs! What else is left? Well, you could try a JewelEye, the only piercing in a place other than your largest organ, your skin. Yep, you can get a heart, star, euro sign, four-leaf clover, or a musical note implanted into your superficial, interpalpebral conjunctiva.
