How would you even do that? Whenever something comes near my eye, I start blinking-(like when you touch a cat’s whiskers). I would imagine that you’d start freaking and someone would mistake it for an orgasm. _shudder_ I think I’ll pass on this one. ---

Sounds like it’s a good way to get an organism, if you ask me. Sure, it feels pretty good, and somewhat intimate as well, but it’s nothing comparable, to, say, a good handjob. Aren’t the eyes mucous membranes without benefit of the somewhat protective qualities of saliva? ---

When I was a kid and would get something in my eye, my mother would put her tongue on my eye and the offending particle would be gone. It never gave me an orgasm. ---

It sounds like a weird way to lose a contact to me. But, if there’s anything this internet has taught me it’s that people can get orgasms from anything. There’s even a word for it: [occuloinctus](http://www.odd-sex.com/info/gloss534.htm) I’m not about to do a Google Image Search for it, though. ---

I’d think that having anything, even a soft wet tongue, touch your cornea would be pretty painful. It’s hard to even move your eyes up and down when your eyelids are closed and there’s any pressure on the eyelids – the cornea is extremely sensitive even to the ridges on the inside of your eyelids. But the sclera (that’s what the white part is called, right?) is pretty insensitive; maybe some people could enjoy that. Enjoy it right up until the severe eye infection, of course – _everyone_ I know who puts their contacts in their mouth on a regular basis has come down with at least one case of conjunctivitis. And we all know there’s nothing better at giving you an orgasm than big blobs of pus oozing out of your eyes! ---

I always wondered why that was a question on [thespark.com](http://thespark.com)’s purity test. I thought it was just one of their amusing non-sequitors. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/does-licking-eyeballs-give-some-people-orgasms/206610.md?page=1)
