I do love to stare at those eyes with contact lenses. I sometimes ask myself will I be prettier if I will try to wear one now. But I have second thoughts because I'm afraid that my eyes will be irritated. Can you give me some advice regarding that. Thanks....

Actually I have no plans to wear a contact lens. I read from a website article that it can be dangerous to our eyes, there are some reports said that it is now one of the leading causes of cornea cancer in some parts of the world. If you have one, try to be very careful and follow faithfully the instructions from your opthalmologist. I think one precaution of contact lenses is to take it when you are going to sleep.

well, actually, being a brown eyed myself has made me wonder whether colored contacts would great on me, too. however, i noticed that the outer lining of the brown iris still manages to peer out so tell tale signs that it's not natural is seen. you can consult an eye doctor regarding the irritation issue. i think some people cannot wear contacts because of oversensitivity.

Contact lens - Easy to use and better than glasses
I dont think you need to worry. Initially it will feel different but you will soon adjust to that. Also your vision will be much better with contact lens than with glasses. Your doctor will be able to help you choose a pair - there are soft, hard, etc. I myself have been wearing glasses for 20 years and plan to switch over to contact lens next month!

I have been wearing contact lens for the past eight years. The only one time my eyes got irritated was when I forgot I was wearing a contact lens and I fell asleep. That is a no-no!!! The contact lens will dry up and will cause irritation. But overall, contact lens are safe to use as long as you take proper care. Cleaning it every day, and changing your contact lens as recommended because of the protein buildup (extended wear lens are good for 1 yr)
