Does anyone have any experience with colored contacts?

I have perfect vision and 0 experience with anything optometry. (Also don't want to accidentally blind myself (': )

But I really want to try colored contacts, Naturally, my eyes change from a golden brown to a dark brown, but I would rather try a lighter color.

how does one get contacts?

do you have to go to an optometrist?

if so how much do they normally cost? (I'm really only trying to spend like $50-$60 but idk how much the difference is in no scripted)

colored contacts?

Thank you everyone!! @Decante I hope your eye infection gets better ;..; that's what I was afraid of,. so like blueheidi said I'll just have to be super careful with the upkeep.

@Xela, yeah I didn't really think about the fact that solution could bother them too,. I kinda just assumed contact solution was all the same honestly. I was looking at getting a pair that would last for a few months but I would only be wearing them maybe 2 or 3 times a week, for going out purposes.

I think I'll just make an appointment with a local optometrist and go based on their recommendations, I get optometry coverage under my fiance's insurance I just don't use it, so it wont be that bad.


thank you everyone!!!! <3

You're better off going to an optometrist despite the fact you're gonna probably overpay compared to just buying off-site. Most contact irritability is based on the cleaning solution though rather than the lens themselves so you could still risk it?

If you're thinking short-term contacts that you'll have less than a week just to try out, 100% I'd go with just buying from a decently reputable source, like to just trial out if you even want to go through the trouble of sporting contacts just to have a different eye color.

edited to remove my opinion on the ordeal since it's not constructive.

try honeycolor! they have a lot of promo codes and theyre safe. but remember that all contacts are only safe under the presumption that you use them correctly, as in follow the expiration date, keep them in secure FDA approved contact cases, change contact solution every day, wash your hands before putting them on, and immediately stop use if you feel any pain or irritation.

You'll get a safer pair that will last longer by going to an optometrist.
