In the past few years, eyewear and especially color contacts have become very popular thanks to the development of fashion and technology. This phenomen has happened in particular among young people. In the past contact lenses could only be bought with prescriptions as were normal glasses. Nowadays, it seems that they are becoming increasingly prominent, especially with the development of the wide range of color contact lenses. It is actually more and more frequent to have friends changing regularly of eye color thanks to these lenses. Furthermorethey are being sold with other products such as costumes for example. Halloween costume sets often have color contact lenses included in them in order to increase the drama aspect of the costume.
The second reason why they are becoming very popular is their price, and there has been a drop in prices in the last few years. Some color contacts are cheap but are nevertheless very safe to use. Young poeple with limited budget tend to go for these. Example of such color contact lenses are the disposable ones which can be changed frequently and do not cost a lot. The advantage of such lenses is that it does not matter if you loose them, and it is rather difficult to break them which is more convenient than glasses for young people!
Many companies offer contact lenses and especially online. It is therefore difficult to know what to buy. Beware of cheap unbranded contact lenses that are sold in large quantities. These usualy do not give any documentation or information on whether the lenses have been proved medicaly as safe or not. As a consequence if you do not want to harm your human eyes, do not buy these! Furthermore, for those having vision problems such these type of cheap lenses could damage your eye!
The best solution is to go and see an optician or eye clinic offering eyewear and color contact lenses. At least when seeing them, they will be able to recommend you safe ones which will not harm your eye! For those willing to change the color of their eye, you may look into color contacts to change your look. Yet again ask your optician if the ones you like are safe or not. If you have any eye vision issue, the optician will be able to recommend you those that are the most suited to your eyes!

One of the main issues with contact lenses is to chose how to buy them and where? Is it safe buying them online? Well the answer is yes but it requires to be careful! Here are a few tips to help you find contact lenses.
If you are not an internet addict, do not know contact lens brands then please do not buy online otherwise you will surely fall on cheap bad quality contact lenses. If you are concerned with this i would recommend going to see a real optician.
For those aware of contact brands and who are familiar with purchasing online here are a few tips. I would recommend to buy contact lenses on Freshlook as this is a well known online brand. You will find everything on Freshlook such as soflens, high quality lenses, cheap contact lenses, colorblends or even disposable contact lens. My favourity lenses tend to be blue contacts made of opaque solid material. What is also nice with Freshlook is that you can also find crazy contacts which have all sort of colors! You will really find what you need and the price you want! So go for it!

There are many different styles of color contact lenses. All depends on the goal you have. You may want to brighten your eyes, change their color, enhance their color or simply protect your eyes from sun damage.
If your intention is to brighten your eyes then i would recommend using Pearlescent Contact Lenses as they are very popular for people willing to brighten their eye color. These lenses add sparkle and luminous quality to your eye color. Example of brands are Freshlook Radiance from CibaVision or Sparkles Gold from Marietta Vision.
For those willing to completly change their eye color please search for "opaque" colored contact lenses. These lenses are made up of solid material and not with translucent colors like for many other contact lenses. These are the only contact lenses which will enable people with dark eyes to change the color of their eyes. If you have lighter colored eyes you will have more options.
In order to enhance the color of your eye we recommend to use translucent color contacts for people who have light colored eyes as they leave your original eye color to pass throught. I would not recommend these sorts of lenses for people with dark eyes!
A new type of color contacts existe now. It is no longer to change your look, but to protect yourself against sun! They protect you against harmful UV rays. These are like sunglasses but in contact lenses. You can find cool color contacts which protect you against light damage but which are also adapted to your eye if you practice sport. These are generally very confortable to wear. An example could be the Nike MaxSight Color contact lenses developed by Bausch & Lomb.

Color contacts are evolving very quickly due to progress in technology! Thanks to scientific progress color contacts allow now more air to pass and reach eye which prevents blood clots due to restrictive oxygen. Color contacts do not only correct your bifocal vision, astigmatism! They are also becoming ways to change your look and are more and more comfortable thanks to technology progress.
People do no longer use color contacts only for vision issues but simply to change their look. The real name for Colour contact lenses is Plano lenses. Recently the demand for color contact lenses has increased due to publicity in magazines and especially fashion magazines. Thanks to technology color contacts are becoming real fashion tools. Famous people and actors are also using regularly color contacts for their look, which has an influence on the development of this industry which is actually booming!

Which Color Contact lenses are most suitable for people with dark eyes? Well it is difficult to say as a particular color contact lense can go well with one person, but not as well with another.... Hair color, skin color also has an influence on whether the contact color is adapted to you.
Overall for dark eyes, there are some colors to prefere, and some to avoid. The ones to avoid are thoses with light blue or green tint as you will not notice any real change compared to your initial tint as the color is to light. This is the same for enhancement color contacts, as these were initially made for people with light colored eyes. Basically all models which are light filtering will not be adapted to people with dark eyes.
If you are looking for color contact lenses that will clearly change the color of your eye then the best are probably the costume or theatrical lenses. Color tint lenses are also very good in order to change drasticaly the color of your eye. The best colors are shades in green, violet or even blue. This color will dramatically change the color of your eyes!
But never forget, other parameters need to be taken into consideration when chosing color contact lenses, such as your skin tan, hair color and clothing style! Good luck in your choice!

Color Contacts without Prescriptions ?

Many people are willing to buy color contact lenses without any medical prescription. Even though it is possible to find online color contacts that can be bought without any prescription it is highly disadvised to purchase these online.
First all, because color contacts made by Optometrists or Ophthalmologists need to fit your eye in terms of size and visual correction. Buying color contacts without a prescription could result in having comfort problems when using contact lenses. When using color contacts that are too big in size in regards to your eye, infections can occur and it is therefore dangerous to take the risk of using such color contacts. With a bad visual correction, head aches and other small problems may occur.
The second reason why you should not buy online color contacts without a prescription is that websites & merchants proposing this are surely not serious organizations. Delivery issues, fraud as well as delivery of low quality products may occur.
All in all, i do not recommend buying color contacts online without any prescription as it is taking a risk for buying low quality products, for having health issues and for having fraud problems. Always prefere serious companies that are well known in your country!

Is it safe to use color contacts?
Everyone knows color contacts are really fun as you can choose the color you want and you can therefore have a new fresh look! This aspect is especially attractive for girls as they are always willing to be good looking and are willing to be attractive towards men. Nevertheless you must not forget that when using color contacts you are using a product with a sensitive organ which is your eyes. So there is always a risk of getting an infection with your eyes even though the percentage of people who do get one is very low. If you are a person who is not willing to take care when using color contact lenses then i would not recommend to use them.
A few recommendations when using color contacts!
When using color contacts with your eyes you should respect basic hygiene rules such as those that can be found below:
- Do not use color contacts with dirty hands or you might catch an infection with your eye.
- Use a solution to keep your color contact lenses clean. This will also help you putting them on more easily.
- If you feel irritated by your color contact lenses, then either change brand and model, or simplu go and see a specialist that will give you some drops because your eyes might be too dry.
- Color contact lenses are personal. Do not lend them to friends or you might catch serious infections!
