Special effect contact lenses have
become quite popular for holiday parties and goth clubs and especially for
Halloween costumes. But before you buy cheapest
contact lenses you need to practice some safety. They include black contact
lenses that make the eyes completely black, and a variety of Halloween contact lenses that come in a variety of
odd colors, as well as shapes and designs. These special effect lenses are soft
and are available for novelty or theatrical use. Just like colored lenses, they
can be ordered with the power to correct astigmatism, farsightedness, or
nearsightedness. They can also be purchased without these powers.
Special-effect contact lenses — including black contact lenses,
Halloween contact lenses and other "crazy" lenses — are soft contact
lenses that are available for theatrical and novelty uses. It is important to
note that all lenses are classified as medical devices by the FDA even if they
are novelty. That means they require a contact lens prescription from your
doctor. Theatrical lenses are safe to wear if you do not have any sight issues
so long as they are properly prescribed and properly cared for. You must also
purchase them from legitimate sources. You can put the finishing touch on your
Halloween costume while avoiding an eye infection.

lenses which make your eyes look large and doll-like. You can even

you must have a prescription from an eye doctor, even if you are wearing them
for looks and not to correct vision. If you buy from a retailer that does not
require a prescription then they are selling the contacts illegally and you
should not trust these sources. Often they are selling expired or non-sterile
lenses and their company only cares about money, not about your eye health. The
same as with regular contact lenses, you have to properly clean and store
decorative contact lenses in a case. You can get instructions on this from your
eye doctor. You should NEVER share your lenses with another person. This leads
to serious eye infections.
