Prescriptions and Color Contacts

A frequent question from users is whether it is possible to buy color contacts without prescriptions. Well the answer is yes it is possible but it is not always recommended for comfort and health reasons.

When you buy without a prescription there are risks that several issues might occur. First of all when buying without a prescription, you may find out that the contact lenses you have bought does not fit you in terms of size or even in terms of comfort as quality might not be that good. These sort of problems could lead to eye infections or head aches if vision correction is not adapted. An Optometrists or Ophthalmologists will guide you to specific contacts that will be suitable for eyes and personal requirements.

Furthermore if you are novice with contact lenses then you will surely not know the good brands. If ever you fall on a low quality band then you might not be satisfied with the product purchased. Having a prescription and seeing an optician would be the ideal solution has he would be able to recommend you the best contact lenses as he is a specialist.

Color Contacts for dark eyes

A question which is often asked is how to change the color of dark eyes with contact lenses?
In order to make sure that you have chosen the contact lense which will give the best effect for your eyes, there are a few rules to follow.

First of all avoid light tint colors and especially light blue or light green and these color contact lenses will not allow you to see a major difference compared to your original eye tint. Therefore do not use enhancement contact lenses as these are more apropriate for people with light colored eyes! Basically avoid all light tint color contact lenses.

I would recommend for people with dark eyes and who are willing to completely change their eye color to use opaque color contacts as these contact lenses are made out of solid material and not translucent material.

Another advice when chosing the best color is to make sure it is adapted with the way you dress, hair color and style, but also you skin tan!
