FreshLook Colorblends Contact Lenses by CIBA Vision Corp.
1800 Contacts has a great deal on CIBA’s FreshLook Colorblends. What I like about these contact lenses is the way they achieve the color. Most contact lenses just have small pigments of color that may or may not look realistic when viewed from 5 feet or closer. The FreshLook actually have pigment of other colors, not just the color you want.
Various colors make the desired color have a deeper and richer look to it. Adding different colors also makes the contact lens look like a real eye color, and not like a strange fake colored contact lens.
If you’re ready to get some new contact lenses check out the FreshLook Colorblends Contact Lenses by CIBA Vision Corp.
Oh yeah, if your prescription ever changes, 1800 Contacts will replace the rest of your unused contact lenses for free!

Here is my list of the strangest and weirdest contact lenses ever made. Some are creepy, some are just plain weird while others will make you say, “Someone paid money for that?” and indeed they did. If you’re under 10, I would look away or else these might reappear in your dreams tonight. Now, on to the strangest and weirdest contact lenses!
Nike MaxSight contact lenses are very functional, but also very weird. Each one is designed for a different sport, this one is red and is designed for cyclists to reduce the road glare from the sun.

Zebra Contact Lenses have the look and pattern of a zebra. Strange for sure.

Hello Kitty has just as many fans as it does detractors. These contact lenses could be part of the revolt. Look closely, they’re kind of hard to see, but you can see the weird Hello Kitty icon.

Full black sclera contact lenses are the strangest (and creepiest) in my opinion. No matter what you say, you would squeal like a girl if someone popped out from under your bed with these black sclera contact lenses!

While not creepy, weird and strange however, people are starting to wear “Eye Jewelery” (or Eye Jewels). Yes, I know that it sounds like these diamond contact lenses, but it is much worse and looks very painful. I don’t know much about these so if you can give me some info, leave a comment.

The Eye Tattoo has to be one of my favorite strange and weird eye changes. Instead of wearing colored contact lenses just to make your eye color change, why not get your eye tattooed? That sounds much easier…

If you’re the lazy type, Stick on Eyes might be a better fit than contact lenses completely. These stick on eyes are just stickers that you put on your eyelids and then fall asleep. People will think you’re weird, and unless they’re completely blind, they’ll know they’re just stickers, and you’ll be running into walls.


That’s all I’ve got, what other types of strange contact lenses do you have for me? Send a picture or just post some info!

Many people have brown or Hazel colored eyes and hate them. As it would be, many people have other color eyes and want a beautiful rich hazel color. Since the invention of contact lenses makes that possible, worry not!
You can easily buy hazel contact lenses in any prescription strength. Hazel contact lenses are most often purchased by people who already have hazle eyes and want to enhance their existing eye color. Most people with brown or hazel eye colors want them to be brighter and stand out.
Hazel contacts can do exactly that. Instead of your dark and drab hazel eyes, you can get hazel contact lenses and lighten your dark eye color without the use of any permanent method. Hazel contact lenses are wonderful because you can slowly change your eye color when you buy hazel contact lenses.
First buy a pair of hazel contact lenses that is a little lighter than what your natural eye color is. After a month of wearing the slightly lighter hazel contacts, buy a different pair that is a little brighter than the last pair.
After doing this 3-5 times your eyes will be much brighter and most people will not have noticed because they saw you every day for a month with an eye color that was very close to your natural color!
