Anna Comnena Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Depends on your eyes. Personally I think custom colored contacts is a case of trying way too hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dacypher Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Unnatural colored contact lenses just look goofy to me, and I believe most of society. The aqua and blue look pretty good, though (in the pic at least. See below). I have a couple of things to say here, though:1\. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. Their site looks quite unprofessional, which would make me question their product. **Bad contact lenses can permanently damage your eyes**. There have been several cases of people getting scratches and infections on their eyes from using novelty contacts. If you want colored contact lenses, you need to go to the eye doctor and get a set of non-prescription colored contacts. They will be much more expensive (probably about $120 - $200 round-trip), but you cannot skimp out on these things. You could go blind. [Here is a link](http://news.bio-medicine.org/medicine-news-2/Novelty-contact-lenses-offer-great-looks--great-risks-6758-1/) with a bit more info. It appears the FDA has advised international packages containing novelty contacts to be seized at the border.2\. Remember that these are just photoshopped models in those pictures. Real color contact lenses can look VERY bad if they are cheap. And $30 is probably the bad ones. Again, this just goes back to point #1\. Go to the eye doctor.

Drag0n Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Yeah, get from the doctor and all is safe, or you can sue. Judge says: "Welcome to the court of blah blah bah.. Today we are presenting the case of the Bad Contact Lenses!" But why do people sue for crap like that? My mom's a doctor, and one of her patients sued her because their daughter didn't eat her pills and died. Isn't that the daughter's fault?I mean what the Duck.

But buy them somewhere else. The site reviews say they take a long time to arrive, the company doesnt answer their phone, and (not sure if this one is true) their address points to a parking lot.

Khachaturian Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I wear soft contacts, every day, for like 2 years now. (For vision)I never thought of getting coloured ones because it just seemed wierd before, but i'm considering it now.I saw a fellow el salvadorian in my school wearing red ones, cuz in El salvador you can get contacts off random stores and stuff (Don't know about other countries)I might get a couple next time I go, theyre disposable and everything there is cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
