What does a eye tattoo mean?
An eye can stand for awareness, protection or insight. Many cultures use an eye to ward off bad luck, and an open eye is also worn as a reminder to stay watchful.
Where to place a eye tattoo
Realistic eyes need enough size for the shading, so the forearm, upper arm and calf are common. Small symbolic eyes suit the hand, the back of the neck and the sternum.
