How to Choose Colored Contact Lenses?
Feb 01,2023 | MYEYEBB
Colored contact lenses are a fun way to change the appearance of your eyes without having to wear glasses or contacts. They can add depth and color to your look and make you feel like you're in disguise as someone else!
Colored contact lenses are not just for Halloween anymore, but they still fall under the category of "special effects" makeup. So if you want to wear colored contacts every day, then yes, you need an optometrist's prescription for them first. However, if you're buying them only for a special occasion such as a costume party or costume gala, then there's no need for any sort of medical evaluation beforehand—but there are still some things you should know before trying this out yourself:
It is important to match your eye color and skin tone.
-
Match your skin tone to your eye color.
-
Match your eye color to your hair color.
There’s no need to worry about whether your eye color and hair color match. It’s not something that you can control, so why stress over it? The important thing is to wear clothes that complement both your skin tone and your eye color.
You can do this by wearing shades that are similar to your skin tone and hair color. For example, if you have fair skin and light brown hair, try wearing dark brown or black clothes with a touch of green in them. This will make your eyes pop out even more.
If you have dark eyes, go for a lighter colored contact lens.
-
Light colored contact lenses will make your eyes look bigger and more awake, which is why many people who have monolids or deep set eyes might want to go for a light color.
-
You can also go for a darker colored lens that is lighter than your natural eye color as long as it's not too dark.
If you have light eyes, go for darker contact lenses.
This is especially true if you have blue, green or hazel eyes. Light colored eyes look best with lighter colored contacts and dark brown or black eyes can be enhanced with darker lenses.
Color contacts can make your eyes look bigger.
The color of the contact lens will affect how large your eyes will appear to be, so it's important to choose a colored lens that matches with your natural eye color. For example, light blue or grey colored contacts are great for light brown or hazel eyes.
If you want dramatic eye enlargement, consider trying colored lenses in darker shades like red or brown. These colors will draw more attention to the center of your face and give the illusion of bigger eyes!
Wear them every day, or just for a special occasion.
Colored contact lenses aren't just for Halloween—you can wear them every day!
-
Wear them on a special occasion.
Whether it's a wedding or a party, colored contact lenses add an extra bit of flair and make you stand out in the crowd. Plus, they're an easy way to show off your style and personality without spending too much money on clothes or accessories.
-
Wear them for fun.
lf you want something fun that's not necessarily tied to any particular event or occasion, colored contacts are great for something like dressing up for Comic Con or roleplaying as your favorite character from a movie / TV show / book series (or all three!).They're also great if you want to wear unique-looking glasses but don't want to deal with lenses getting scratched up by daily use at school or work!
Get a prescription from an optometrist, even if the lens has no vision correction in it.
A contact lens prescription is a set of numbers that indicates the power and size of a contact lens required to correct your vision. A doctor will calculate your prescription based on the measurements of your cornea, which include its curvature and astigmatism. The number in your prescription determines what kind of corrective lenses you can use.
In addition to correcting your vision, colored contacts can be used to change the color of your iris or enhance it by making it more vibrant or darker. To do this, optometrists measure how dark a person's natural eye color is using an instrument called an applanation tonometer; then they determine the appropriate intensity for coloring based on this information (the darker one's natural eye color is, the less intense the shade should be).
The size needed for colored contacts depends on several factors: whether you want them for daily wear or just occasional use; if they're going under water as part of their intended use; how large or small your own eyes are; etc.. But even if you don't need any vision correction, which would be determined by an optometrist during a comprehensive exam; it's still important to get a prescription from one because these lenses are used not only to correct vision but also change appearances (i.e., make eyes look bigger/bolder) and protect against infections caused by dirt getting into open wounds behind lids where germs could multiply abundantly without protection against UV light exposure.
Don't take risks with your eyesight by trying to buy them without a prescription.
You can't buy colored contact lenses without a prescription. You need to see an optometrist, who will examine your eyes and determine which colors are right for you. Even if you have perfect vision, it's important to get a prescription before buying colored contacts because the lenses could cause infection or damage your eyesight if they don't fit properly.
Colored contacts are fun, but they need to be worn safely.
Now, you might be asking yourself: “Can I wear colored contacts if I’m not supposed to? Or do they make exceptions?”
The answer is no. Colored contacts are the same as glasses and sunglasses—they completely block out your natural lenses. They can cause harmful damage if they aren’t properly cared for or worn correctly. If you have any type of eye disease or condition that affects your vision, colored contact lenses may not be right for you!
If you’re still curious about whether or not you can wear colored contacts if you’re not supposed to, keep in mind that they are never recommended. You should always talk with your eye doctor before wearing any type of contact lenses!
Colored contact lenses have become increasingly popular in recent years, but there are some risks associated with wearing them. It is important to choose a colored lens that matches your skin tone and eye color and wear them correctly. If you want to wear colored contact lenses every day, it's best to get an eye exam from an optometrist so they can make sure they are safe for your eyes.
