Craze for tattoos defies limits. And this 28-year-old New Delhi man vouches for it.

Karan has got his eyeballs tattooed and joined a rare club who have done so - probably the first Indian in it. The young man - who is a full-time professional tattoo artist and piercer - has tattoos all over his own body.

But with eyeball tattoos, he has taken his frenzy to a new level.

In eyeball tattoos - also referred to as scleral tattoos - needles inject ink into the whites of a person's eyes to permanently dye it a different colour.

When Karan was 16, he took up tattooing "as a hobby". Later, he opened up his own tattoo studio in the Indian capital.

"At the moment, I have uncountable tattoos and 22 piercings on me," Karan was quoted as telling NDTV, adding his full body suit of tattoos is a work in progress. "Eventually, I will just have one tattoo: head to finger and toe tips."

Karan started toying with the idea to tattoo his eyeballs six months back. He discussed it with his family and friends, wondering whether he should go for the permanent procedure or not. "Once they were convinced and knew I was 100% certain... they supported my decision," the report quotes him as saying.
