It is worth noting that some individuals may refer to the taboo artist as physicians, however, that is not an accurate statement to be made the first covering the needle with ink and puncturing the eye. This method was deemed unsuccessful, and the second method was attempted. This procedure, in which the sclera was injected with blue dye, was successful. The procedures were “effectively painless because there aren’t nerve endings in the surface of the eye,” says the article's author Shannon Larratt.

there are pain receptors all over the eye that are generically labeled "nociceptors" and are designed to detect injury. the white of the eye is not as sensitive to pain as is the cornea

thats why when you have "pink eye aka conjunctivitis" they first put topical anesthesia drops to take away pain-discomfort so the eye exam can be more easily facilitated

interesting bios on "shannon laratt" . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon_Larratt
