A woman identified as Anaya Peterson has regretted not listening to her seven-year-old daughter's warning she could go blind if she got her eyeballs tattooed - as she is now losing her sight.

The Law student was inspired by 'blue-eyed dragon' Amber Luke, an Australian model who got her eyeballs inked blue in 2019 - before going temporarily blind for three weeks.

According to Daily Mail, the mother of five was left hospitalised by the eye alteration.

The 32-year-old faces permanent blindness after a suspected reaction to the eyeball ink.

Anaya, who also has a tongue split and facial tattoos, now says she wishes she could have done things differently.

The mum reportedly got her right eyeball tattooed blue in July 2020.

Despite dealing with headaches and dry eyes as part of the healing process, she decided to get her left eye dyed purple in December 2021.

After months without complications, Anaya was shocked to wake up in August 2021 with swollen eyelids.

Daughter warned her before

Anaya claimed that her daughter India warned her against the unique tattoo, as she feared that her mum would 'go blind'.

Anaya now faces going blind as her sight deteriorates.

"I was just going to get one [eye tattoo] at first because I thought that if I go blind, at least I've got the other eye. I should have stuck with that. My daughter told me that I didn't want to do that, 'what if you go blind?' She wasn't on board with it at all," she said.

Man who tattooed whole body banned from church

Popular Kenyan website Tuko.co.ke reported that a man claimed his extreme body modification, which makes him look like a real-life devil, saw him banned from various churches.

Renie Diniz da Silva had spent KSh 6 million on changing his look for the last 14 years, which includes implants in his forehead and tattoos across 70% of his body.

He said he was particularly disappointed in the religious community and claims that on several occasions pastors had denied him entry into their church.
