According to FoxNews, Amber Luke from Australia says she cannot explain what the feeling was like. 

"I can’t even begin to describe to you what the feeling was like, the best thing I can give you is once the eyeball was penetrated with the ink, it felt like [the tattoo artist] grabbed 10 shards of glass and rubbed it in my eye," she said.

She continued to say that her tattoo artist went too deep into her eyeball. If it was done correctly, she should not have gone blind. She claims the whole experience was "brutal".

She has reportedly spent upwards of $25,000 (nearly R400,000) modifying her body with extreme procedures, such as splitting her tongue and having pointed implants placed in her ears. 

Luke goes by 'Blue Eyes Dragon' on Instagram. She became fascinated with procedures and tattooing from the age of 16, but now she says she's done with extreme procedures. 

She plans on being completely covered in ink by March 2020.
