I bought my first ever pair of contact lenses about 2 months ago. I bought the hazel-colored ones and I loved them from the very first time I wore them. My friends all tell me that the color really suited me, made me look more exotic. Well, friends are friends! hahaha lol

I remember one time in the English learning center where I work, a female student (a teen) approached me and asked me outright if it really was the natural color of my eyes. I told her they were contact lenses, and she told me she really liked them. It was a bit awkward as she kept staring at me for a few minutes before she said, "I really like them. It looks like....... a lizard's." w00t It was a really funny moment for me as I was waiting to be flattered! But ended up being compared to a lizard. ugh, BEASTLY THINGS!!

Well, how about you? Do you like contact lenses, especially the colored ones? lol

I got contact lenses when I was 20 years old. I has two week lenses at first in Australia and then in the UK I had month lenses. Now I have daily disposable contact lenses. I have green eyes and I have often wondered what I would look like if I had blue eyes. If I got colored contact lenses I would be able to try it out.

We have an optical shop where you can check out what color fits you. You can really test the lenses first before you buy them. I've tried the gray and hazel brown. The gray looks okay, but makes me look more exotic and other-worldly, so I stuck with hazel-brown! lol


myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1250)   ranked 1,114 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

I wear glasses all the time. I will only wear contact lens when I go out for wedding dinner, some gathering or functions. It is better to wear contact lens when we dress in pretty clothes. So far I have yet try any color contact lens. My daily disposable lens has just finish. I will visit the optical soon and maybe it is time for me to get a color contact lens. If there is a free trial then that will be good!

Hello aixshaonline this is checkmail and am also attracted towards coloured contact lenses, its just beautiful to view.Am myself never given a try at contact lenses but many of mine earlier friends use to wear it to just add some glamour or due to visibility pro.And yeah it looks cool and s..y, simply mind pleasing as the colour attract mine attention towards it.The colours of lenses are really cool much more than gogs.I prefer gogs most of the time.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (291)   ranked 2,654 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

I actually bought the lenses for vanity's sake. Well, not that I like buying for vanity, but because I've been wanting to buy colored lenses ever since I can remember.

Hi there aixsha! Yes, i do love contact lenses especially the colored ones. I used to have glasses before but was getting rid of it because i think it doesn't fit me at all. lol. Anyway, I have 3pairs of contact lenses now. They are aquamarine, cinnamon and peppermint. I always bought the one that can only be used for 6 months since my friends used to have a year lenses. They said its not very comfortable to wear since its give you eye irritation even if its not yet a year.:)
Good thing i was not told about what that teen said to you. Hope you're not going to hear responses just like about the lizard anymore.:)
Have a great day!


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (291)   ranked 2,654 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

Hi!

Wow, I'd like to have those colors too! But I'd like to see if they suit me first! Hahaha.. I have 6-month lenses now, because it's the cheapest that I could find with good quality. I have a friend who had year lenses but had to get rid of them because she had an eye infection.

I was really surprised when she told me that! I really stopped what I was doing and simply stared at her with a goofy face. w00t And I was thinking of being compared to a lion or something. A Lizard, sheesh! Hahahaha lol


myLot reputation of 88/100. yan_blue8 (603)   ranked 12,512 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

Hi again! Of course, you need to fit them all and choose among different colors with different brands that suit you:) Eye irritation and infection usually occur when the lenses are expired (cause at times, others still use it), or if it is itchy to wear already but they are still putting them on, or probably you wear it and sleep for over an hour. In my case, i used it everyday, but during lunchtime of one hour at work, when most of the time I'm sleeping, I'm still wearing them on. I usually do it and nothing happens.Good thing! Hope you can get an advice out of it, since this is your first lenses. And most likely your friends have told you about the do's and dont's of it already.
Forget about the lizard's thingy dear, you never know, by tomorrow, you're gonna hear a nice response!
Enjoy your lenses!Goodnight!


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (291)   ranked 2,654 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

Thanks for the advice! My friends are hard-headed at times and tend to sleep the night through without taking off their lenses! Hahaha.. I'm the one who actually reminds them to take them off!

For me, I don't have a habit of wearing colored contact lenses.

Yes, I never used any colored lens and have no plans of wearing one either. You see, in my eyes, Asian black eyes are fine and I really love it.So, I don't want to disguise it with artificial means. Perhaps some people believe that blue are more beautiful but I am really proud of my black big eyes.

Have a nice day!


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (291)   ranked 2,654 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

I'm Asian too, but I wanted to experiment with how I looked. And basing on my friends' comments, it was a good change. I only pick the colors that suit me, though. And I don't wear them all the time, only when I feel like wearing them happy I'm also proud of my eyes, in their natural state happy

myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (291)   ranked 2,654 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

Whoa. A Pinoy wearing blue contact lenses? I've seen some who do wear blue ones, but I don't really think it fits happy. Just my opinion though. I've been wanting to try blue ones, but I'm afraid I might look funny lol

I wear contact lenses daily because eyeglasses tend to be foggy. Contact lenses are the best for me. I've been using them since 25 years now. I have never tried colored contact lenses though because I think I would look funny. Contact lenses have gone a long way since I started using them. I used to lose them all the time because they were colorless. The current ones I use now are sort of tinted (but not colored ones) which make it easier to find them on the sink whenever I lose or drop them.


myLot reputation of 99/100. aixshaonline (291)   ranked 2,654 out of 38,167 in life  1 month ago

My sister wears contacts too! She has the same kind as you do, lightly tinted to distinguish them from each other and from the floor, sink, etc. My lenses are actually for vanity's sake, as they are merely colored lenses, with no grade. I only chose the color that suits me, as I think far out colors would merely look funny on me. But if I could try other colors without having to buy them first, I'd like to try and see if they look good on me! Hahaha.

your eyes color is one of your most striking features. if the color contact lens may able present your eyes as much more erotic, attractive then a natural eyes to others. now days it a trend of modern fashion. you can add drama and flair to your looks with captivating colors. so why not have a little fun with your eyes. usually color contact lens comes in three kind but with so many colorful, as folows:

1. visibility tints: its light blue or green tints added to a lens. this kind of lens color is very light, so can't ignore your original eyes color.
2. enhancement tints: solid but transparent. little dark than visibility tints. does change your original eyes color but not completely.this type lens are best for people and familiar to them, who want to make their eyes color more intense.
3. color tints: this are much deeper and can change eyes color completely, make eyes as like as solid color.who have dark eyes, they need this type of color contact lens to change eyes color.

there are so many color of contact lens such as pacific blue,sea green,Caribbean aqua, . some are color cosmetics lens, some are non prescription colored contacts lens, some are prescribed color contacts lens.
you may choose any of them for your own personal taste and whats make you feel good. you can also try different color of daily disposable type lens

wearing contact lens eyes gone out to mimic the natural look of the color portion of eyes, called the iris.but the center of the every lens are not only vision correction, many of available without any vision modification with zero (0) power and the part that lies over pupil, is clear. so you can see through your eyes by wearing lens as well as natural.

Wow. I never knew all of this before. Thank you very much for the information! I think my contact lenses are color tints as I have dark brown eyes. I want to have enhancement tints too! Many people already like my natural eyes, and I think it would be good to enhance them. Hahahah lol
