Coloured Cosmetic Contact Lenses

Coloured contact lenses come in three kinds of tints: visibility tints, enhancement tints and opaque color tin
Under U.S. law you need a contact lens prescription. This is true even for plano lenses that don't have prescriptive power and are worn for cosmetic purposes only.This is because the cosmetic look may be desirable to some, the potential dangers and risks outweigh any fashionable benefit. According to the American Optometric Association Blog, the "improper use of contact lenses can cause corneal ulcers, corneal abrasions, visual impairment, and blindness."
Contact lenses need to be fit properly - always consult an eye care professional before considering or using any type of contact lenses.
