Colored Contact Lenses

I am currently obsessed with contact lenses. I don’t wear glasses and I have a 20-20 vision. But I do want to spice up my look every once in a while.

I have natural dark brown eyes and I sometimes envy those who have hazel, green, gray or blue eyes. I’ve always known about colored contact lenses but I was too afraid to try them on. Though my friends and my optometrist had said that they won’t cause that much discomfort, it took me a year of evaluating and contemplating about it before I finally got around buying my first pair.

There are actually two kinds of contact lenses: soft and rigid gas permeable contacts. Soft contacts are made of really flexible plastic that is made of water. With soft lenses, it is advisable that you choose disposable ones for they can get dirty over time. RGP contacts are a bit uncomfortable when first worn but they are more durable that soft contact lenses and can be worn as extended wear. This means that they can be worn up to a year and while sleeping.

The first pair I bought was soft disposable lenses in shade of gray. It really made my eyes light up and I love it! I have numerous pairs in various colors now. Try one now.
