Special Effects Contact Lenses Are Fun, But
They Are Also Medical Devices
While novelty contacts are designed for fun, they are still considered medical devices by the FDA. Like all contact lenses, they can cause eye infections if not fitted correctly or cared for properly. That means you must see an eye care professional to have them fitted and prescribed, even if your eyes don't need vision correction. (This is the law in the United States.)

You also need to clean and disinfect them like any other contact lens, and you must never share or swap your costume contacts with anybody. An eye infection caused by improper use can lead to blindness.

Never buy special effect contact lenses at any store that doesn't ask you for a valid prescription from an eye care professional. Such sales are illegal in the United States, and for good reason: wearing contact lenses that don't fit your eyes properly is dangerous and can cause serious vision problems, abrasions, and infections. Not only that, they will be uncomfortable to wear, so why waste your money?

Special effect contact lenses are as safe as any other contact lens, as long as you follow the rules. Generally, special effect lenses are not made from materials that can be worn overnight. And clean them regularly: make sure to ask your eyecare practitioner to explain the proper care regimen for special effect lenses.

That's actually a really good price for that type of lens. You can try maybe acuvue online or something, but I really don't think you'll find anything cheaper than that.

Umm black...Those will really scare people. They'll either look at you like your an overgrown rat, or an alien lol. I was checking those out as well. So if it was my personal choice, I'd pick black.

Don't do it. These type of contacts can cause permanent damage to your eyes. It's not worth it. Go without. Please.
