Anaya Peterson's tale is a devastating story about a woman who tattooed her eyeballs purple and blue causing her to start losing her vision.

According to reports, the woman brushed off her daughter's advice to not get her eyeballs tattooed due to potential blindness, and now she's losing her vision.

It is reported that she went blind three weeks after getting her tattoos done. She narrated to Kennedy news that;

“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."

She continued;

“My daughter told me that I didn’t want to do that [the tattoo] asking, ‘What if you go blind?’ She wasn’t on board with it at all.”

The woman now wishes she had listened to her wise 7-year-old.

She was hospitalized for the eyeball modification after a potential reaction to the ink, and now claims she is at risk for developing cataracts.

“I don’t have 20/20 vision anymore. From a distance, I can’t see features on faces. If I didn’t have my eyeballs tattooed, I wouldn’t be having this problem. Even today I woke up with more floaters in my eyes."

The woman is now worried that she will live with that problem since she can't remove the ink stuck in her eyes.

Her harrowing tattoo tale didn’t have such a rocky beginning as months after tattooing her right eye blue in July 2020, she had no complications.

With no complications, she opted to tattoo her left eyeball purple in December of that year. In August 2021, things took a turn for the worse.

She woke up one day with incredibly swollen eyelids that looked like she had gone “five rounds with Mike Tyson.

She remembered;

“I just wanted to be at home watching [TV] to be honest. I can’t even put it into words. It wasn’t nice at all whatsoever."
