There have been many FDA warnings and publications in
Optometry magazines about dangers of crazy colored
contacts. As a result many people are afraid
to wear color crazy contact lenses, considering them not
safe.
While it is true that wearing crazy colored contact lenses
can lead to serious eye problems, the lenses themselves
aren’t the cause. It
you get brand name colored crazy contacts and care for
them properly, they are perfectly safe for your eyes.
Crazy color contact
lenses like Crazy Lenses by Cooper Vision or Wild
Eyes by Ciba Vision feel comfortable in your eyes. But
in order to completely replace your natural eye color
with scary design the lens can’t be very thin. As
a result not enough oxygen penetrates though the lens,
therefore you can’t wear it for extended periods
of time.
It is recommended not to wear crazy color contact lenses
for longer than 8 hours.
Most people report that crazy color contact lenses are
comfortable for a few hours. Only if you have very sensitive
eyes, you might feel some irritation and discomfort.
Scary colored contacts need proper cleaning
Even if you wear non prescription crazy contacts, they
are medical devices and have to be cleaned properly. Wash
your hands before handling your lenses and rinse your
colored contacts before inserting them in your eyes.
