Transform Your Look with Halloween Contact Lenses
While colored contacts can help you to change or amplify your everyday look, Halloween contact lenses can transform you into a prowling jaguar or a night roaming zombie. In most cases, costume contact lenses are responsible for the special eye effects seen in movies.
Halloween lenses are available in a wide spectrum of designs and colors. Wild Eyes Contact Lenses, a popular line of FDA approved novelty contacts are available in eleven different transforming designs. The lens designs offered by Wild Eyes include: Black Out, White Out, Knock Out, Red-Hot, Cat Eye, Jaguar, Zebra, Zoomin’, Hypnotica and Wildfire.
When it comes to choosing the right costume lenses for you, it’s all about expressing yourself or creating the type of character you want to portray. You transformation possibilities are limitless when you combine a costume, Halloween contacts, make up and your imagination.
Special effects contact lenses are essentially colored contacts with designs ranging from crazy and fun to spooky and just plain odd. These lenses are most commonly opaque colored, soft contacts which are comfortable and easy to wear. Costume lenses are typically not disposable and can be worn for up to one year.
Even if you don’t rely on contacts for vision correction, you can still modify your look with costume lenses since they are available with and without corrective prescriptions. While you may not need a corrective prescription, you will need to have a contact lens fitting and receive a plano prescription from a licensed eye care practitioner before you are able to purchase a pair of novelty lenses.
Although you may be able to find novelty lenses sold elsewhere like costume shops and retail stores, you should only purchase them from an authorized source with a licensed eye car practitioner.
It is important to remember to care for your special effects lenses as you would other contact lenses and always treat them as medical devices. While it may seem fun to share these lenses with a friend, you should consider the Risks Associated with Sharing Contact Lenses.
