Oddities

this is about the most moronic thing I have ever seen

This is similar to an idea that I am working on and intend to patent as soon as I can line up some investors, except my idea utilizes the construction of a lens out of sandpaper and the user puts in the lens with Habanero chile sauce instead of saline. For some reason, I'm still having a challenging time avoiding irritation but I'm sure I'll overcome this difficulty in time.

Ridiculous and stupid.

At least you will be able to tell who is retarded by the s-h-i-t hanging from their eyes, to funny.

Gee, I wonder how fast the rabbit can type?

To people that have serious eye conditions this isnt even remotely funny you idiots !!

I don't kmow about eye jewelery, but to fit circuits and LEDs into a contact lens sounds sort of like X-files. Will we one day all get Lasic eye treatment and then be able to see the Internet with satellites?

this new idea about eye jewelry is very risky, it can damage your eyes and skin, and this development of technology is really scary

More evidence of the dumbing down of "some" people in the world. "An artist-designer in the Netherlands named Eric Klarenbeek has created what he calls eye jewelery for people who have been dying (sic) to dangle diamonds from their eyeballs. But blinging in this manner may pose some problems: Besides having to figure out what to wear with it, some pain may be involved". How dumb can you be?

Eventually, once nanotechnology has been harnessed, you'll be able to have SmartContacts that not only protect your eyes from all manner of threats, you'll have a HUD (Heads Up Display) like what you see in many first person perspective computer games. This will display information like your GPS location, caller ID info from your phone, nightvision, telescopic sights, etc.

yeah....but could the rabbit send email?

I think people don't have anything better to do so they come up with ridiculous things and dumb people just think its cute but it's not!

The eye jewelry is the stupidest thing I have ever seen!! How the heck are you supposed to was them! What happens if it tears the lens! What happens if it makes the lens fall out! People need to making bling for almost everything and anything!! Get Reel People.

I have worn contacts since the early 80's. Most of the time, I can't even feel them, but if an eyelash falls in my eye, it feels like there is a boulder in it. I cannot imagine what it feels like to wear this eye jewelry. Last summer I wore a torn contact for a few days until I could get to my eye doctor. I came down with an infection in one eye that spread to my sinuses and then back to my other eye. Three weeks of very expensive anti biotics and eyedrops followed. Now, nothing goes in my eyes but fresh, new contacts. These eye jewelry inventors and their customers alike are idiots. Wait until someone comes down with an infection from wearing some of the jewelry that leads to a sight loss. Personal injury lawyers are lining up.

OK eye jewelry is just down right stupid, the other bionic crap is scary, people reading emails or watching movies through their contacts while driving, then there is the always paranoid side of me that wonders what would keep someone from running a subliminal program while you are sleeping,almost reminds me of a sci-fi horro novel I read about a computer company actually connecting people to their computers.

It's official. Human beings are f**ked up!

This article reminds me of a sci-fi short story I read a few years back now, about how people became addicted to virtual reality glasses that made the world seem much more beautiful than it was - thus creating a way for people to avoid having to deal with the mess they created. Never mind the glasses - looks like contact lenses may be the way to go.

Yes, lets torture some poor rabbits so some idiots can wear eye jewelry.

The eyeball jewelry is SOOO... necessary because it is so hard to wear jewelry on your neck/nose/ears/wrists/finger/angle/toes/belly button.

Next up: Eyeball tattoos...

When I saw the accompanying picture for this article I thought WTF? Especially in light of the point the doctor brought up about scratching the sensitive layers of skin surrounding the eye.

Seriously though people, contact lens jewelery? The idea seems absolutely ludicrous to me.

I have worn contacts for 37 years and now in the past year have 2x developed cornea ulcer. i haven't worked in 2 weeks because of this and every co-pay for eye med is $55 x 6 medicines. $50 copays for eye specialist, every other day. He links everything to contacts. Although, I treat my eye with the utmost respect, I take my contacts out every day after work, put a brand new pair in every 3 days, the environment alone and sensitivity to contact solutions isn't helping me. I can't put makeup on, can't see a damn thing, have to buy 3 different glasses, including sunglasses, since I drive for a living, have 2 glasses, one for far, and one for close. Now I am being told that a cyrstalens replacement is my only option, other than going on disability, and that is not covered by insurance. (at least $5000). I have cried and cried and I hope to the good Lord that the people do not put this eye jewelery in their eye. It is extremely difficult to clear up eye problems (and expensive)

It's a highway for bacteria to go directly into your eye. What sort of sadist thought this up? Out with his eye!

Eyeball jewelry? As my dad used to say,"Makes about as much sense as teats on a boar hog. "Gee, wouldn't you like to see the limited warranty on eyeball jewelry. "In the event of loss of sight or eyeball itself manufacturer liability limited to purchase price of said eye jewelry and/or replacement of said jewelry with jewelry of similar design or value. Manufacturer not responsible for stupidity of consumer but damn glad idiots willing to buy our crap."

But, can the rabbit multi-task ? j/k I think it's horrible what we do to animals just so some idiots with more money than brains can get something that is "latest and new". Makes me sick.

i like contacts. the are neat and tidy

cheeeeeeeeeeeeze
