What happens if you get knocked in the face somehow? A black eye turns into blindness, yay. If you want to mess with your eyes, get colored contacts. I hope this trend dies out very quickly.
...And i tell ye, those people wearing sunglasses... Freaks.

All that glass so close to your eye? what happens if they get hit? have a car wreck? get a wasp caught between the lense and their eye?

If it's comfortable for the wearer, has no known side effects, then what is wrong with it?

It's just squeamishnessess, anything new that people do to cosmetically alter their appearance will always be called freakish by the vast majority. Especially if it involves needles or scalpels.

Earrings, glasses, caps on teeth, breast implants, penile extensions, mole/wart removal, necklaces, shaving, whatever... there's a risk to doing and wearing pretty much everything.

We usually forget that, because we have to.
