Coloured contact lenses are a great way to spice up your style, if you can keep your eyes clean and can remember to take them out every night. Although they can really emphasize some of your features, not everyone can buy colored contacts. Most types of contacts require a prescription.
Although there is a type of colored contact lens that doesn’t require a prescription, known as plano, or ones that don’t significantly correct your vision, it is always best to consult an optometrist before radically changing your eyewear usage (read: if you haven’t ever worn lenses or glasses before).
It is also true that the law requires you to have a prescription, even if your lenses don’t have any vision correction and are purely cosmetic. The FDA has a warning that even plain contacts present a risk of eye injury and blindness if you fit or wear them improperly.
It will also help if you see the optometrist to find your new eye color. Only they can tell exactly how the lens should fit over your eye, and before you buy them in a novelty shop or online, it will help to try them out in the optometrist’s office.
Black out contact lenses
If you are looking for a way to make a dramatic statement, either in time for Halloween, another costume party, or simply looking to stand out in everyday life, blackout FX contact lenses may be the way to do it. These lenses completely cover the iris of your eye so that your pupil appears much larger, and can emphasize your eye without looking too different, but different enough that people will notice.
These types of lenses are most frequently used in horror movies for the effect they have on producing a vampire or a zombie, but can work great for your event as well. It is important when looking for these types of lenses to look for a reputable seller and to also check the seal on the contacts when you receive them to make sure it is not broken.
As with other color contacts, you may need to get a prescription, particularly if you are looking to get ones that correct your eye vision as opposed to being simply for cosmetic purposes. Due to the dual nature of these lenses, they don’t disable your sight in any way, and will simply make you look more serious or dreadful from afar, depending on what you are going for.

Fashion contact lenses are just what they seem, contact lenses designed for just fashion. You can find fashion contact lenses all over Hollywood and it seems like just about every celebrity wears contact lenses.
Some celebrities only wear fashion contact lenses in movies, while others wear them all the time. Some people wear fashion contact lenses to disguise their real eye color and others just want to enhance their existing eye color. With fashion contact lenses you can do both.
Blue fashion contact lenses are the most popular variety and color of fashion lenses. Another popular variety are Halloween fashion contact lenses. The wonderful part of fashion contact lenses is that they don’t have a prescription power so you shouldn’t feel dizzy after wearing them.

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!
