These aren't your parent's contact
lenses - colored lenses have come of age
Want to change the color of
your eyes? Once a rare novelty item,
colored
contacts are now readily available from a
wide array of manufacturers. Companies like
CIBA Vision, with their Freshlook Colorblends brand, offer a fun variety of
colored lenses. You can find colored lenses
ranging from subtle to wild, and go with a
slight change or a completely new eye color.
Best of all, you don't even
need to be a normal contact user to take
advantage of colored contact lenses. Most
brands of colored contacts offer lenses that
don't provide vision correction at all -
they are worn solely for the purpose of
changing your eye color. Of course, if you
normally wear contacts, it will be simple
for you to try on a new eye color - simply
order your normal prescription and you'll
combine a new tint with 20/20 vision.
Colored contact lenses are
no longer just for people with light eye
colors, either. Even if you have naturally
dark eyes, you'll be able to find lenses
that offer a refreshing and exciting change
in eye color. In addition to their FreshLook
Colorblends brand, Freshlook offers lines of
colored contacts for just about any eye
color and prescription combination out
there. And that is just one lens
manufacturer - other brands, such as Acuvue,
Biomedics, and Coopervision also offer lines
of fun and unusual colored lenses. With so
many choices, you be able to find the exact
tint that you are looking for.
Where to find colored
contacts? Just about any shop that sells
contact lenses should have a selection of
colors available in your prescription. Your
local eye center is a good place to start
your search. However, if you know your
prescription or can get a copy of it from
your doctor, the best place by far to find
colored lenses - or any contact lenses, for
that matter - is online. There are numerous
retailers on the web, and ordering contacts
online couldn't be any easier.
The best online retailers
store your prescription information, and
even send you an email reminder to let you
know that your supply of disposables is
probably running low. And, with a
surprisingly quick turnaround time, you'll
never have to wait more than a few days for
your new contacts to arrive in the mail -
usually along with a complimentary contact
case.
Once you try them, you may
become very fond of colored contacts. It is
now possible to change your eye color to
match your mood, your outfit, or any
occasion whatsoever. Choose wild lenses for
costume parties, or go with subtle color
enhancers to accentuate the normal color of
your eyes. The possibilities are endless.
And, given the ease of Internet shopping and
ordering, it is a simple matter of a few
mouse clicks to try out a new look. Even if
your vision is perfect, you will be
interested in colored lenses.
Give colored contacts a try
for yourself, and you'll finally be able to
know for certain what it is like to have the
eye color that you have always imagined.
From baby blue to steely gray, the color of
your eyes is now as easily changed as the
clothes that you wear.
