Choosing Colored Contacts
Why choose colored contact lenses ?
Problems with sight, astigmatism, strabismus or any other eye problem is not any more reason for someone not to be able to change the eye color. Any prescription lens can be ordered in different color. All you need to do is ask the doctor when he is writing a prescription to specify the color. Any good optometrist keeps a stock of samples of colored contact lenses for prospective customers to try, so ask for a sample to make sure you will be comfortable wearing them.
Color contact lenses come in several versions, just like any other lenses: some are disposable and others can be used for almost three months. The decision which one to use depends mostly on how long one plans to wear them, so for people who have corrective eye lenses, it is prudent to have color contacts that last longer.
Wild colored contacts
Wild eyes color contacts are opaque, what means that they are suitable for both people with dark and light color eyes. They completely cover the iris, but they might slip when you are blinking or when your pupils are dilating suddenly. No problem, you might look even more wild-eyed.
Wild colored contacts might be fun, but they are still medical devices and you should get your eyes checked before deciding which one to purchase. Once you have your prescription, you can buy them from your eyeglasses store, or from one of many internet stores. One thing you should not do: buy them from unreliable store that does not ask for your prescription. If they do not care for your eyes, you should not care for them.
Take care of your eyes, and take care of your wild eyes color contacts. Don’t wear them overnight, or when swimming. Keep them for the special occasions and for the maximum impact.
Unfortunately, wild eyes contacts are not available as free samples, at least not yet. It is not a bad idea to keep looking; one of the manufacturers will surely come up with a special free sample for some special occasion. You might be the lucky one to be the first to get them.
Free Contact Lenses Samples
There are several ways to go about it: you can ask your neighborhood eyeglasses store if they keep some samples, or you can browse the net. All major manufacturers are offering free contact lenses samples in order to promote their products and get wider buyers’ base. The idea is that, if you are happy with your free contact lens sample, you will come back for more and you will tell your friends about it.
All major contact lenses manufacturers are now offering free samples: Acuvue 2 Colors, Freshlook Colors and Durasoft Colors. Once one started giving free sample lenses, others had to join or be left behind. That is how the market works. A quick search by Google will get you to one of their websites and the source of your first free sample.
But, before searching for a first sample of free contact lenses, you have to visit your eye doctor, or nearby optometrist’s shop and get your eye exam. The law specifies that any health device, and lenses are considered medical devices, has to be prescribed by a medical professional. As your mother has been telling you for years, good yearly eye exam is good idea anyway. The exam will also ensure that the lenses fit well and are comfortable. So, get your prescription and start having real fun: choosing the color. It might be just a color for that one special night, but once you discover the delight of changing your eye color together with your hair color or you outfit, you will be back for more. You can get your free sample color lenses from the same shop where you did your eye exam or you can go back to your web search and try one of the web sites of the major manufacturers. You will have as much fun as with any online shopping, and, as a bonus, you will get your free contact lenses.
Do not forget that, in order to change the color of your dark eyes completely, you need to get opaque color lenses. For those with light eye color, enhancer lenses can make their eye color different, or just of a different shade. So, have fun, impress your friends with your new look and share with them the secret: getting a free contact lenses should not be your secret only.
