WITH one of the highest rates of binge drinking among teenagers, Scotland already has an unenviable reputation with alcohol.
But now experts are warning about a new trend among young people that is aimed at speeding up the process of getting drunk – pouring shots of alcohol directly into their eyes.
Known as "one-in-the-eye", it involves using shot glasses in a manner similar to that of eye-wash.
Despite the risk of blindness, users hope that by absorbing the alcohol via the membranes of the eye, it will enter the bloodstream more quickly and have a stronger effect when it reaches the brain.

I had read about AWOL earlier this year.
Thousands of years ago, when men and women took that first drink, their lungs, nasal passage and bronchial tubes had alcohol passing through them.
That’s why you’ve probably heard: “You smell like you've been drinking again†or “Please exhale in this breathalyzer.â€
One of the ways our body gets rid of the alcohol we drink is through the lungs, in our breath.
AWOL simply turns that procedure around and lets the alcohol enter the body through the lungs thus eliminating the dreaded hangover.
What Others Are Saying:
"It feels so clean!"
"What a great light feeling."
"No heaviness."
"This is the greatest thing since the still."
"If you hate hangovers, you'll love this."
