If you mean getting the eyeball tatooed, it is done very differently to any other tattoo. The ink is usually injected under the layer of skin: The sclera is visible as the white area of the eye. It is composed of connective tissue that forms a protective layer around the eye. A thin layer of tissue, known as the episclera, covers the front part of the sclera, followed by a transparent layer known as the conjunctiva. Any of these layers can become inflamed.

The eye itself doesn't have any nerves, and therefore it won't hurt. However, it will cause pain as the eye can inflame (swell) During healing, there is a feeling of something stuck in your eye as well as some redness. Primary healing takes about a week, a similar time to a normal tattoo.

Eyeball tattooing carries with it significant risks up to and including blindness and life-threatening complications.
