The Gadfly Has Seen Everything Now
News Item: A Senate panel on Thursday passed a measure to prohibit the tattooing of eyeballs.
The Senate Health and Human Services Committee approved Senate Bill 844 by Sen. Cliff Branan, R-Oklahoma City. The measure would ban tattooing of the white part of the eye.
Scott Guess, an ophthalmologist with the Dean McGee Eye Institute in Oklahoma City, said the practice has not made its way to Oklahoma but has been seen on the East and West coasts.
"I can't understand why people would want to do it," Guess said.
