Choosing Colored Contact Lenses

Colored contact lenses were first widely available during the 1980s; since then improvements in manufacturing methods have made them commonplace. Some can be worn safely for 30 days before having to be replaced, while other colored lenses are designed to be disposed of after wearing once. Of course, these lenses are great for anyone going to a Halloween party or other social event, but they are also ideal for anyone wanting to change the color of their eyes and their overall appearance. A colored contact lens is available with and without the corrective ability, if you simply want to change your looks and don’t need to correct a vision problem. When choosing the perfect color, decide on the look you’re going for, whether dramatic, fun or just natural looking. Most people wearing colored contacts also take into account their skin tone and hair color.
