Crucial in the safe and responsible use of special effect contact lenses for Halloween or at any other time, according to the FDA, is involvement by a licensed eye care professional. In fact, it's the law. Decorative lenses improperly made or used improperly have been known to cause permanent eye injury and even eventual blindness. Therefore, you must see your eye doctor before shopping for Halloween contact lenses to get proper fitting and instructions as well as the necessary prescription. You will need this whether you ordinarily wear prescription lenses or not. And don't even think of purchasing decorative lenses from any store (online or off) that doesn't ask for your prescription; it is illegal.
Some of the things your doctor will invariably tell you are that decorative contact lenses are not for everyday wear. Consider them for special occasions only. Never sleep or swim or bathe with them in, and don't use them while engaging in any activity that requires sharp visual acuity, for example cooking or driving or operating heavy machinery. In plain English - someone could get hurt.
Halloween contacts should not be worn unceasingly for long periods of time since prolonged use can cause strain and infection. And they should be clean and disinfected carefully before and after each use, according to your doctor's instruction. If after using Halloween contact lenses, you notice redness, swelling, or feel any sort of pain in the area, please contact your eye doctor immediately. Even if it turns out to be nothing, the joy in Halloween is that the danger is imagined, so let's keep it that way.
Have a safe and happy Halloween!

2010-03-05T02:22:00.000-08:00

Why Use Special Effects Contact Lenses
For some people, it's a matter of feeling better about themselves. If you don't like your eye color, for example, being able to change it to something you feel is more acceptable can be a good boost for your self esteem.
For others, it's about conveying who they are inside. Science fiction fans, for example, might want to use eye color and styles that represent their favorite sci-fi characters. Those who are fascinated by vampires may prefer vampire style eyes while those interested in technology might want to surprise their friends with circuit board eyes.
Special effect contact lenses are usually only used a handful of times. Some are actually one use only and they are completely disposable. This type of contact lens is ideal for Halloween parties or other disguises. If you are in need of a costume for a play, special effect contacts can also come in handy, as with role playing activities.
Should You Use Contact Lenses for Effect?
Not everyone is interested in using contact lenses. If you have eye problems, you might want to talk to your eye doctor before trying special effects contact lenses. They usually aren't meant for long term use and if you aren't accustomed to wearing contacts, it is better not to leave them in for very long. Two or three hours is the recommended period for beginning contact lens wear.
If you already use glasses or contact lenses, you can get special effect lenses as prescriptions, too. So, they would just replace your regular contact lenses. Otherwise, glasses can be worn in combination with the contact lenses, though some people find this ruins the effect they are going for. For simple color changes, however, it works fine.
Special effects contact lenses can be a lot of fun to play around with, but they are also very practical if you need a new look. Check out the different options available and choose the ones that suit you.

Contact Lenses and Their Different Types

2010-02-28T07:47:00.000-08:00

People use contact lenses for a lot different reasons. Some have them for convenience, because they're relatively less weighty to wear than regular glasses, while some get contacts for their aesthetic value -- because they simply look good and make people look more natural.

So far, around 125 million people all over the world use contact lenses. As opposed to glasses, contact lenses don't fog up, are not affected by wet weather and provide a wider field of vision (with regular glasses, you hardly have peripheral vision at all).

But contact lenses are not just that. If you visit your eye doctor and have some prescribed for you, you will find out that there are actually various kinds around, depending on your requirements. They differ in terms of function, material, shape, disposability, number of focal points and wear periods.

Functions of contact lenses

Contact lenses have three basic uses: cosmetic, corrective and therapeutic.

Corrective contact lenses are made to help improve vision. Such kinds of lenses neutralize refraction discrepancies in the eye, that is, the lack of balance between the eye's length and its refractive abilities. Corrective contact lenses usually address problems like near/short sightedness and far sightedness, presbyopia and astigmatism.

Cosmetic contact lenses are made to, well, change your eye's appearance, whether it's for an aesthetic reason or for theatrical/costume-related purposes. They come in different styles and designs. Because they are cosmetic, not all can correct vision. Some of them, depending on the complexity of the prints, can even obstruct or blur vision.

Therapeutic contact lenses, or soft lenses, are commonly used to help in the healing of certain eye-related surgeries and treatments. Some of the treatments such contact lenses are used in are corneal ulcers, dry eyes, corneal edema and keratitis.

The different makes of contact lenses

When contact lenses first came into the market, they were initially made of glass. It was eventually phased out because they caused eye irritations and were not made for longer use. They were replaced by contact lenses made of PMMA or plexiglas, which were easier and lighter to wear. They are commonly called "hard lenses".

However, soft contact lenses are more often used nowadays. They are made of silicone hydrogels, which have high oxygen permeability, so your eyes don't tire out easily and feel suffocated. Soft contact lenses are normally used for extended or overnight use.

How long can you wear contacts?

It varies. Extended wear contact lenses may be used overnight or for a couple of days (to as long as a month, for continuous wear lenses), while there are some contact lenses that have to be put on and taken out everyday. Also, contact lenses differ based on disposability. This means, there are some lenses that are designed just for single use, others need to be changed after a few months, while others can last up to a year or so.

Contact lenses are taken cared of using a special cleaning solution available in all optical shops and pharmacies. These solutions will help take out the dirt in your contacts, particularly the proteins that have lodged themselves in during use. Some contact lense solutions work with just one washing, while there are others that require your lenses to be soaked for a particular amount of time.

Once you have decided to get contact lenses for yourself, always keep in mind that your vision is one of your greatest indispensable assets. So you should take of this gift by choosing only the best and doctor-prescribed products for your eyes.

What You Need to Know About Contact Lenses

2010-02-27T07:47:00.000-08:00

You have decided to go for contact lenses, but you’re not sure if you’ll be able to wear them all the time or if you can handle them properly? Here are some recommendations that you should take into consideration...
- You must wash your hands before using contact lenses;
- A progressive wearing of your contact lenses is needed (from a couple of hours in the first day, to a 12 hours period later on);
- You should avoid wearing them in the week-end or at least one day per week;
- Store the contact lenses in their special boxes and if you have different dyoptrics, be careful not to mix them up;
- Every morning after putting on your contact lenses, throw away the solution in which you kept them overnight and refresh it in the evening;
- Make sure that you always keep your contact lenses in their special solution; if not, they dry and become useless. You must use the special solution that comes with your contact lenses and not some improvised solutions like those with water and salt.
These recommendations are everyday steps that must be followed for a proper hygiene of your contact lenses, but when it comes to going away on vacation you should also consider the followings:
-You must not use any cream soap because the cream will remain on your hands and can be easily transferred to your contact lens;
- After swimming, the contact lenses must be removed, cleaned and disinfected. You must know that not all contact lenses can be worn at the beach or at the pool. The rigid ones can get lost easily; therefore those flexible and soft ones are more suitable for these situations. There are also special contact lenses for swimming, but you should make sure that they are appropriate for this before actually going swimming. You can easily find out if your contact lenses are made for swimming, by diving with your eyes wide open, into a bowl full of water. Move your head around a few times and, if your contact lenses don’t move, then you’re good to go!
When you get out of the water you have to blink often in order to eliminate the excess liquid from your eyes. You shouldn’t rub your eyelids very hard.
Nowadays, when we can change almost every part of our body that we dislike, our eyes don’t make an exception. We can actually choose the color of our eyes, due to a simple contact lens. Since this option is often adopted by women, being regarded as one of the easiest change-of-look tricks, these women must remember the followings:
- Put on your contact lenses before putting on your make-up.
- If you use fixative for your hair, do it before you put on the contact lenses, and close your eyes while you spray it.
- Keep away the nail varnish, your perfume or the acetone because these can affect the plastic in your contact lens.
- Blink often when you dry your hair so that your eyes don’t get dry.
- Use a liquid foundation cream, so that it doesn’t affect the contact lens.
There are various colors of contact lenses, adapted to everyone’s needs and wishes. You can even get a contact lens for Halloween and for a Vampire look or blank contact lens to make you look blind. You can simply choose a contact lens of a color and another contact lens of a different color for a strange, funny way of looking.
A large variety of colors is offered by acuvue contact lenses. Some acuvue contact lenses – ACUVUE 2 are available in various cosmetic tints like hazel, green, violet, amethyst, blue and even gray. There are also opaque acuvue contact lenses for darker eyes and enhancers for lighter eyes.
In the rush for a new change of “look”, people should consider that the contact lenses have its advantages and disadvantages. The advantages are that you benefit from a constant correction of your eyesight, you can wear lenses overnight (such as acuvue contact lenses), your binocular eyesight improves and your visual field gets larger. Unlike eyeglasses, they are excellent for bad weather and can even change the color of your eyes. Last but not least, you can get rid of those annoying spectacles which leave traumas to the children.
On the other hand there are disadvantages as well: contact lenses need more care than spectacles. Their purchase and maintaining cost is higher. Contact lenses are not recommended to children, old people or to those persons who suffer from severe allergies, eye infections, the syndrome of the dry eye or who work in an environment that doesn’t allow a proper handling of the contact lenses. However, if the person is mature enough to take care what he buys and wears, the contact lenses can be an answer to a prayer.
As you can see, contact lenses are made to fit everyone’s necessities and desires, from a simple change of “look” to a medical prescription. So, no matter what you’re looking for, be sure that there’s a suitable pair of contact lenses for you!

About Contact Lenses

2010-02-26T07:45:00.000-08:00

Decided to go for some contact lenses? Good for you, but before starting to wear them you simply must know something about these wonderful inventions.
The history of contact lenses started in 1500 when Leonardo Da Vinci brought into discussion the concept of contact lenses. Much later, in 1823 a British astronomer discovered that eyesight could be adjusted by wearing lenses applied directly on the cornea. The history of contact lenses evolved from William Fienbloom who created, in 1939, the first contact lens from harsh plastic. It was applied onto the eye with some kind of glue. In 1971, soft contact lenses were invented and, in 1979, the permeable contact lenses first appeared. It was in 1983 that detachable contact lens revolutionized the market. They were invented by a Danish producer who sold his copyrights to Johnson&Johnson. The Company started selling contact lenses on a large scale in 1987. They soon become very popular and remained so until today.
Being a little familiar with the history of the contact lens is not enough. The most important details refer to the situations when it is advisable to wear contact lenses:
- To correct myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia and astigmatism. The most important advantage of contact lenses is that they can correct anisometropy. A person is diagnosed with it when the eyes do not have the same distance point refraction. Even when there are differences over 3 dyoptrics between the eyes, the correction cannot be done by wearing eyeglasses.
- For therapeutic purposes – as a substitute for bandage, after a surgical intervention.
- For esthetic and cosmetic purposes.
There are a few steps that need to be followed when you decide to go for contact lenses:
-First of all, the medical consultation takes about an hour to complete. There are a few things that need to be taken into consideration: the reasons you decided to wear contact lenses instead of glasses and whether you can afford them or not.
-The next step is an exam that you’ll have to take, an exam called “refractometry”. Contact lenses are prescribed together with the spare eyeglasses. Another series of medical exams will follow after this one.
-The distance and diameter of each contact lens has to be carefully measured (Keratometry).
-The testing of the contact lens (which varies from 5 to 30 minutes) is necessary for the individual establishment of the curvature and of the diameter of the contact lens.
-The last step is the periodical exam which varies depending on the type of the contact lens.
Nowadays, we benefit from a large variety of contact lenses so you should have no problems in choosing the right ones for you. There are:
-PMMA contact lenses – this type was the first one and it was made in 1960. The contact lens is made from a very durable plastic, polymethyl methacrylate. The disadvantage consists in the fact that it doesn’t allow oxygen in the air to reach the cornea. Instead, when you blink, the oxygen from your tears reaches the cornea. This type of contact lens is preferred for its durability and low cost.
-Gas-permeable lenses – RGPs – allow oxygen in the air to go directly to the cornea. They are made of plastic in combination with silicone and fluoropolymers.
- Soft contact lenses made of plastic that incorporate water have as main attributes flexibility and softness and they allow oxygen to reach the cornea.
-Among the most popular types of disposable lenses are the Acuvue contact lenses. The acuvue contact lenses are designed for people with little or no astigmatism and should be replaced every two weeks. Some acuvue contact lenses are approved not only for everyday use, but for overnight wear too. The advanced version of the acuvue contact lenses is made of materials that allow oxygen pass in even greater amounts than the other types of contact lenses.
Depending on the number of times the contact lenses will be worn, they can be divided into:
- Long term lenses that can be used for up to one year, but not continuously and
- Short term lenses made only for a one time wear. They can be useful for one day and one night, but afterwards they have to be thrown away.
Nowadays, more and more people change their eyeglasses for contact lenses because the latter are more comfortable and esthetical. People can wear them in almost every situation: when practicing sports, at work, in front of the computer, at the beach, when swimming, etc. Not only do they make you healthier, but they can give you the eye color you always wanted.

Contact Lenses for Teens

2010-02-24T07:45:00.000-08:00

Does your child need to wear glasses, and hates them? There is another option - teens can wear contact lenses, as well as adults. Find out what the pros and cons of contact lenses for teenagers are, and see if contacts could be a solution for your kid.
Which is better - contact lenses or glasses?
Glasses are easier, of course: all you need to do is to stick them on your nose. But it is no secret that kids and teens hate their glasses. Not wearing them will help your child to feel more attractive and sociable, and raise his or her self-esteem.
Also, contact lenses have a number of practical advantages. They provide crisper focal vision and excellent peripheral vision. Contacts are also better for playing sports and other physical activities.
What is the minimum age for wearing contact lenses?
Most doctors start prescribing contact lenses for children after 11 years of age, so it might surprise you to learn there is no minimum age for wearing contacts. Even infants can wear contacts, provided their parents insert and remove the lenses. So age isn’t really an issue - what is more important is how responsible your child is. For instance, is he or she ready to follow a doctor’s instructions and care for the lenses properly, every day?
Surprisingly, studies show that teens are often more responsible about caring for their contacts than adults. Of course, for the first few weeks you will have to supervise your daughter or son, to make sure they follow the doctor’s instructions properly.
Are contacts safe for teenagers?
The safety of contact lenses, for teens, concerns many parents. Don’t worry - if the lenses are worn on schedule and properly cared for, they are absolutely safe. Actually contacts are safer than glasses - they won’t break during a game and cut your child.
Here is the list of contact lens safety rules:

Always follow your doctors instructions for cleaning and storing the lenses
Wear and replace your lenses on schedule; try not to wear them from sunrise to midnight
Never sleep wearing your lenses
Wear tight goggles while swimming with contact lenses
If the lens feels uncomfortable in your eye, take the lens out

Losing a contact lens behind your eye is an urban legend; this is impossible, due to the physiology of the human eye. The worst that can happen is when a soft contact lens folds in half and hides under your eye lid. In this case, it is recommended to close your eye and gently massage it through the eye lids from the edges toward the middle. Eventually the lens will shift and be removed easily.Do contact lenses feel comfortable?
Modern contact lenses are designed for comfort. People who wear high-quality soft contact lenses report that it usually feels like there is nothing in their eyes at all. If you feel that your eyes are tired and a bit dry, by the end of the day, then it is time to take the contacts out.
Of course the moment when you put lenses in causes a bit of discomfort, and so does the process of removing them. Still, it doesn’t hurt and, with a little bit of practice, most teens can easily manage inserting and removing the lenses.
Is it difficult to care for contact lenses?
The days when contact lenses required different solutions for storing, cleaning and protein removing are gone. Now contact lens care is quite simple. For most soft lenses, all you need is a multi-purpose solution (for cleaning and storing) and a contact lens case.
And if you go for daily disposable contact lenses there is no care at all - just take the lens out of its sterile package and pop it in. If you don’t trust your child to care for his or her lenses properly, dailies are the perfect solution.
Do contacts cost much more than glasses?
A pair of glasses costs more than a pair of contact lenses, but since contact lenses have to be replaced more often, their overall cost is higher. Daily disposable and color contacts are the most expensive; monthly disposable lenses do not cost as much. And, of course, the cost of contact lenses varies greatly from brand to brand.
However, if you know the secrets of buying discount contacts online, most lenses will cost less than 50 cents per day. I think you would agree that this is a fair price to pay for convenience, and to increase your kid’s self-esteem.
So do you think that contact lenses can be a solution for your child? Give contact lenses a try and see if this helps your kid to feel better about herself of himself.

Healthy Contact Lenses - Your Options

2010-02-23T07:43:00.000-08:00

Want to know how to choose healthy contact lenses? Contact lens manufacturers are on a continuous quest to create the perfect contact lens. Find out which modern lenses give you the best health benefits, convenience and comfort.
The healthiest soft contact lenses currently on the market are daily disposables, biocompatible contact lenses and silicone hydrogel lenses.
Daily disposable lenses
You probably know that even if you follow the doctor’s instructions for cleaning your contact lenses, they never feel as good in your eyes as when you just take them of the package for the first time. And if you are a bit casual about caring for your lenses, they can feel even worse. There is a simple solution to this problem - contact lenses that you can get fresh from the pack every morning and throw out in the evening.
Many eye doctors agree that daily disposable contact lenses are the healthiest choice, when it comes to contacts. Comfort and convenience are not the only benefits of daily disposable lenses. There is also no day-to-day deposit build-up, and the risk of eye infection is minimal. And if you lose or accidentally tear the lens, no problem - just take another one from the box.
The price of daily disposable contact lenses had decreased, over the last few years, and now they are very affordable. Bearing in mind that you will not need any lens care products, dailies won’t cost you significantly more than monthly disposables. Actually, daily disposable lenses can also be a money saver, if you wear your contacts only once in awhile. Weekly and monthly disposable lenses have to be thrown out after their time is down, even if you wore them only once. If you open a fresh package of daily contacts every time you need to wear contact lenses, though - and if this is not too often - then a 30 lens pack will last you a long time.
There are many daily disposable contacts on the market. 1 Day Acuvue by Johnson and Johnson, Focus Dailies by Ciba Vision and Soflens One Day by Bausch & Lomb are healthy and affordable daily disposable contacts.
Biocompatible contact lenses
Do you know why your contact lenses don’t feel so good in your eyes by the end of the day? The main reason is that your body tries to reject foreign objects in your eyes by coating them with proteins, lipids and other cells from the surrounding fluids. But there is a way to prevent this “rejection” reaction - it is possible to create a lens that is compatible with your body. In other words, your body won’t see the lens as ‘foreign’ and won’t try to fight it.
Modern technology can create healthy contact lenses with PC (phosphorylcholine) - a substance that occurs naturally in human cells. The contact lens we are talking about, here, is Proclear Compatibles, by Cooper Vision. The PC used in Proclear Compatibles creates a healthy biocompatible lens material that feels comfortable and moist over several hours. This lens is also very resistant to dehydration, so it is ideal for people who suffer from dry eyes.
Silicon hydrogel contacts
You probably know that in the case of conventional contact lenses, the higher the percentage of water is, the better it is for you. However, there is another way to keep your lenses moist, with a low (30-40%) water content and a new material - silicon hydrogel.
Since the lens contains less water, it is less prone to dehydration, and the silicon hydrogel material makes it feel moist and very soft in your eye.
Successful silicon lenses are Acuvue Advance by Johnson and Johnson and PureVision by Bausch & Lomb (both of these brands also have toric lenses). Acuvue Oasys is the newest silicon hydrogel contact lens, and deserves a special word. It is made from an improved material senofilcon A and provides extreme comfort for people with dry and sensitive eyes.
Proclear Compatibles, mentioned above, also belongs to the silicon hydrogel group of lenses.
Are your current contact lenses healthy? If you are still prescribed traditional monthly disposable or - God forbid! - annual replacement contact lenses, then it is time to switch to a healthier option. Ask your doctor if he or she can fit you with any of the healthy contact lenses mentioned above, and feel the difference.

Contact Lenses - the Latest Trends

2010-02-22T07:42:00.000-08:00

Have you been wearing the same contact lenses for the last few years? If so, it might be time for a change.
Contact lens manufacturers constantly work on improving contact lenses. The goal is to produce lenses that you can wear all day long without any danger or discomfort to your eyes. Contact lens quality has seriously improved over the last few years. See how modern contact lenses can help your eyes to feel and see better.
30 days wear contact lenses
How would you like to put your contact lenses in your eyes in the morning and not worrying about them for the next 30 days? Sounds almost too good to be true, but there are contacts that you can safely wear for a month.
Most contact lenses can be worn for no longer than 8-10 hours in a row because the lens blocks the flow of oxygen to your eyes. This can cause irritation and promote bacterial infection.
However, the new generation of lenses, made from a different material (silicone hydrogel lenses), have much higher oxygen permeability. For example, Focus Day and Night lets through 6 times more oxygen than conventional contacts. With more oxygen reaching your eyes, wearing contact lenses for 30 days becomes a safe option.
There are two lenses that are FDA approved for continuous wear for up to 30 days - Focus Night and Day by Ciba Vision and Pure Vision by Bausch & Lomb.
The downside of extended wear contacts is that if you live or work in a dusty or smoky environment, tiny particles will get into your eyes, so the lenses won’t feel comfortable for several days.
Silicon-hydrogel contacts
Discomfort and dry eyes are constant complaints among contact lens wearers. Contact lens manufacturers worked very hard on developing lenses that don’t dry your eyes, even by the end of the day. The result of this research is silicon hydrogel contact lenses. You can wear them from the early morning till midnight and they feel comfortable all day long.
One of the most successful silicone hydrogel contacts is new Acuvue Oasis. It is made of senofilcon A, which is a new silicone hydrogel material that - according to the manufacturer - is 50 percent smoother than other silicone hydrogel contacts. There is also a special moisture-rich wetting agent, called Hydraclear Plus, for additional comfort.
Another comfortable silicon hydrogel contact lens is O2Optix. It is a 2 week disposable lens which you can occasionally leave in overnight. O2Optix is also quite affordable - especially if you buy it online with a discount.
1 day disposable contact lenses
Even though cleaning contact lenses takes only a minute, many people find it a hassle. Now, when the production costs of contact lenses has significantly decreased, daily disposable contacts have become affordable and very popular.
Daily disposable lenses have a number of advantages:

the lens is fresh and sterile every morning, when you put it in
there is no hassle with cleaning and storing your contact lenses
no storage or cleaning solution is required, so you save on contact lens caring products
there is no protein build ups on the lens
they are ideal for people with allergies

The majority of contact lens manufacturers have lines of daily disposable contacts. The most popular disposable lenses are 1 Day Acuvue and Focus Dailies.
If you are generally happy with the lenses you wear now, but wish for even more comfort and less hassle, ask your doctor if he or she can switch you to daily disposable contacts from the same brand.
Color contact lenses - the most popular contacts on the market
Did you ever think that you can kill two birds with one stone, and change your eye color while correcting your vision? If you have to wear contact lenses anyway, try color contacts. Recently developed color contact lenses can give you a vivid, yet natural, look.
You can get two types of color contacts - enhancement color lenses, which are half transparent and designed to enrich your natural color; and opaque lenses, which can change your color completely, even if you have dark eyes.
Modern color contacts even come as 2 week and 1 month disposables.
The most popular color lens collections are:

Freshlook Colorblends to change color of dark or light eyes
Freshlook Radiance - enhancement lenses to make your eyes sparkly
Acuvue 2 Color opaque and enhancement lenses
Focus Softcolors (2 weeks and monthly disposable) - enhancement lenses to brighten light eyes and give them a tint of blue, green or aqua

Contact Lenses for Halloween FAQ - 7 Things You Need to Know About Costume Lenses

2010-02-21T07:40:00.000-08:00

Planning to make your costume complete with a pair of Halloween contact lenses? Then there are a few things you should know before you order yourself a pair of scary special effect contacts.
1. Can I see when wearing costume lenses?
Yes: the center of most special effect lenses - including black-out lenses - is clear, so you can see. The only exceptions are white-outs, frost and other designs that have to hide pupils. These lenses must be worn only one at a time.
2. Do special effect lenses come with or without corrective power?
People with good vision can get any special effect contact lenses for Halloween with zero power (plano lenses). Some collections come with corrective powers as well - for example, costume lenses from Wild Eyes and Crazy Lenses. Usually only minus corrective powers are avaliable, though, and they never go farther than -6.
3. Are Halloween special effects lenses comfortable?
If you get high quality lenses like Crazy Lenses or Wild Eyes, they will feel comfortable in your eyes. However, don’t expect that you won’t feel the lens at all, especially if you are not used to wearing contact lenses. Also because of the opaque color layer, costume lenses block the flow of oxygen to your eyes, so they might feel irritating after several hours of wear. Eight hours is the recommended upper limit, for wearing costume contacts.
4. How long do Halloween costume lenses last?
Most special effect contact lenses are traditional replacement lenses, which means that they last for a year. Actually, if you don’t wear your lenses every day and take good care of them, brand-name lenses like Wild Eyes can last up tp 18 months.
There are also monthly disposable Crazy Lenses by Cooper Vision, which last for about 30 days. These lenses are a great choice if you plan to wear your scary contacts only during Halloween. They are also cheaper than yearly lenses.
5. Are there any health risks related to contacts for Halloween?
There are a lot of FDA warnings about Halloween contact lenses. However, most problems occur because people don’t follow a few simple rules, which any contact lens wearer should know. Here they are:

Visit an optometrist before you get your lenses. Contacts are not a one-size-fits-all proposition - a doctor needs to measure your eyes for the best fit
Buy your costume lenses only from registered contact lens retailers. Never buy them from a gas station or beauty salon.
Never share your lenses with anybody - it is a sure way to pick up an eye infection
Don’t wear your special effect lenses for longer than 8 hours in a row and never sleep in them
Wash your hands with soap before handling your lenses
Carry a contact lens case filled with solution with you, so you can take out your lenses if your eyes start to feel irritated
Never wear a damaged lens

If you follow these rules and the care instructions that come with all brand name special effect lenses, your scary contacts should not give you any health problems6. What is the price range of Halloween contacts?
Mass produced lenses like Wild Eyes and Crazy Lenses are quite affordable. You can get a pair cat eyes, hot red, spirals or black-outs for $60-$80.
There are also companies that offer handpainted special effect contact lenses with hundreds of very interesting designs. These lenses are called theatrical contact lenses and would cost you $200 or more, per pair.
7. Where is the best place to order costume contacts for Halloween?
Your optometrist can get them for you, but this way you will pay more than necessary. Your best bet is to order your special effect lenses from an online contact lens store. You just need to be careful and make sure that you are dealing with a trusted online contact lens retailer.

Halloween Contact Lenses - Safe for People Who Never Wore Contacts Before?

2010-02-20T07:40:00.000-08:00

Halloween contacts can add a lot of impact to your Halloween costume. People who wear corrective contact lenses often experiment with costume lenses as well. But if you don’t wear contacts on an everyday basis, would Halloween costume lenses be safe and comfortable for you?
What are Halloween contacts lenses?
Halloween lenses, also called costume or theatrical lenses, are soft contact lenses with a layer of color embedded in them. Top quality costume lenses are produced by the companies that also manufacture ordinary (corrective) contact lenses. To ensure that painted special effect lenses are safe, manufacturers use special paints that don’t irritate the delicate surface of your eye.
There are hundreds of different designs: cat’s eyes, snake eyes, spirals, white-out and black-out lenses, banshee, vampire red, and many more besides.
Most costume lenses are completely opaque, to hide your real eye color, with a clear center so you can see. A few designs, like white-out, which creates an effect of blind eyes, are completely opaque, though, so it is recommended to that you wear them only one at a time.
The majority of theatrical contact lenses are round in shape (like corrective lenses) and cover only your iris. However, there is also a type of lens, called scleral, that covers the entire visible surface of your eye. Scleral lenses are used only for special effects (not for correction) and usually cost a bit more than round ones. Sclerals are also more difficult to put in.
Are costume contact lenses comfortable?
Yes, if you select the lenses that are right for you. To make sure that your lenses are safe and comfortable, you should only go for quality brand name special effect lenses. Currently the most popular costume lenses on the market are Wild Eyes, manufactured by Ciba Vision, and Crazy lenses, from Cooper vision. Both brands are made from top quality materials, feel comfortable in your eyes, and come in variety of exciting designs.
Quality special effect contacts are comfortable for most people. In fact, if the lens is properly fitted, you shouldn’t feel it at all. Soft contact lenses don’t have any adjustment period and generally feel comfortable in your eyes straight away. However, if you don’t wear contact lenses every day, you might want to order your costume contacts in advance and wear them for a few hours each day, several days before the party.
Costume lenses might get a bit less comfortable as the day goes on. The reason is that they can’t be as thin as clear corrective lenses - the opaque color layer adds extra thickness - so the lens doesn’t let enough oxygen get to your eyes. It is recommended not to wear them for longer than 8 hours. And you should always take them out before going to bed.
Do I need doctor’s prescription to get special effect lenses?
It might sound silly, but you do. Corrective or not, costume lenses are medical devices, and even though most people can wear them without problems, you should consult your eye doctor and get a prescription. Also ask the doctor how to put your costume lenses in and take them out. All brand name special effect contacts come with clear instructions, about putting them in and taking them out, but it takes a bit of practice.
Where can I get Halloween costume contact lenses?
After getting your prescription comes the time to buy your lenses. You can order them through the doctors office, but this is the most expensive option. You would save a lot if you purchased your Halloween lenses from an online contact lens retailer instead. Just make sure that the shop is reputable and specializes on contact lenses, not just Halloween costumes.
If you are wondering if it is all too much trouble, I would say go for it. Without eyes to match, a costume just doesn’t look complete. And the care isn’t at all difficult - all it takes is a couple of minutes. Just follow the doctor’s instructions.

Bifocal Contact Lenses - What Are They

2010-02-20T07:39:00.000-08:00

For year’s people who had both nearsightedness and farsightedness had to suffer with eyeglasses that had thick lenses with a line across them. Not only were the glasses heavy but the frames for glasses in general were to say the least, unattractive. The other problem with the bifocal lenses was adjusting to them. You either have to look up or look down especially going downstairs. People often experience dizziness while adapting to the bifocal lenses.
For years people who needed bifocal lenses had only one choice, eyeglasses. Even when contact lenses came on the market, bifocals still could only be had in eyeglasses. That was then and this is now. Now contact lenses offer as many choices if not more choices than for those who wear eyeglasses. Now to the joy of many, there are bifocal contact lenses available. Bifocal contact lenses are available in soft, rigid, gas permeable materials.
Who needs to use bifocal lenses? People who have trouble focusing on objects that are near. They suffer with something called Presbyopia. This doesn’t usually develop after age 40.
There are various types of lenses and they are described below.
* Alternating design- these are similar to bifocal glasses, half the lens has distance powers and the other half has powers for near objects.
* Simultaneous Design-these lenses try to blend the powers of both distant and near sight prescriptions, they fill in the pupil area. Your eyes adapt and learn to interpret the circle power choice depending on how close or far you are looking.
* Concentric Design-These are the radial of contact lenses. The lens works on near vision while outer part works on distant vision correction or vice versa.
* Translating Design- these are also very similar to bifocal eyeglasses, the distance correction is above the near correction. A line separates the lenses. The lens is flat on the bottom to keep it from moving around in your eye when you blink.
* Asferic Design-Distant and near vision are located at the center of the lens. Near correction is at the center while distance correction surrounds it. They can be reversed in some situations. The doctor will help you decide that.
* Mono-vision Design-You wear one power lens in one eye and the other in the other eye. Distance vision is usually worn in the dominant eye. Again your doctor will be able to determine this with an examination.
There are also simultaneous vision contact lenses. These lenses allow the eyes to focus on both near and far objects at the same time. Near and distant correction is in concentric rings. Since the distant and near parts of the lens are in sight all the time light from both distant and near objects can be focused on at the same time.
There is a problem with simultaneous vision lenses. While the eye is seeing through the lens some light from distant objects will go through the near vision, and the light from near objects will go through the distant part of the lens. The eye takes both in focus and out of focus at the same time. It is up to the brain to figure out which is the desired image.
Contact lenses whether bifocal or not can only be obtained with a prescription. Through a comprehensive examination your eye doctor will determine whether you are a candidate for bifocal contact lenses and what specific type might be right for you. As with any contact lens there is an adjustment period and it might take more than one try before you get lenses that are the right fit and comfortable for you.
The reality though is that bifocal contact lenses may not be for you, at least in the contact lenses that are now available. Don’t give up. If you really want contact lenses and you need bifocals, do your research and keep up to date on the types of lenses available for you.
If you want to try contact lenses some companies have free trial periods of up to a week for you to try the lenses and see how you like them. There are resources available online, through your eye care physician, and in some cases right from the manufacturer. There are discount contact lens sites and some manufacturers offer coupons to you for trying them out. Your budget will undoubtedly play a part in your decision about bifocal contact lenses.
Ask friends or family members who have contact lenses what their experience has been like for them. Of course, not everyone has the same experience but in general, the information could help you and your physician make a determination.
Bifocal contact lenses are available for people with astigmatism. Toric contact lenses in particular come in both colors and disposable types. Consult with your eye care professional, as some professionals are not comfortable with fitting Toric lenses.

Disposable Contact Lenses - Simple But Powerful

2010-02-19T07:39:00.000-08:00

Throughout time there have been various means of correcting vision. There was the monocle, then the glasses that were on a chain or a stick, and then there were eyeglasses as we know them today but there were not as many styles as there are now. As technology improved the lenses of glasses were getting smaller. Since many people were always losing or breaking their eyeglasses they were hoping for a way to wear glasses and not have to worry about them being lost or breaking them.
Contact lenses came along and they were great but expensive. If you lost them or dropped them you would have to get new ones. I knew of someone who lost one of her contact lens and she had developed an infection in her eye. The doctor examined her only to find the contact lens had slipped and was not in the proper place. Traditional contact lenses were rigid and took some getting used to.
People were looking for softer and more flexible lenses and lenses they could easily put in. Softer lenses came out and then because they had to be removed every night and cleaned, people started to long for lenses they could wear all the time. As the prices came down and more people were able to purchase contacts, they were getting sick and tired of cleaning them all the time and of the expense of all the cleaning solutions needed.
It would be great, they thought, to be able to throw out the lenses each night and eliminate the need for the cleaning solution. 1987 saw the introduction of disposable contact lenses and they were design-ed to be worn for a specific amount of time before having to be re-placed. There are some terms and explanations that you need to be familiar to understand disposable contact lenses.
* Disposable Contact Lenses - they are discarded and replaced after two weeks if not sooner.
* Frequent replacement lenses - they are replaced every one to three months. Traditional/Reusable - these are replaced every six months if not before.
* Extended wear lenses - you can sleep in them for up to two weeks.
* Daily disposable lenses are removed and discarded every night eliminating the need for cleaning solutions. You and your doctor should determine the replacement schedule. The wearing schedule defines how often you remove, replace, or discard your lenses.
* Day and night Contact Lenses - You wear these lenses day and night for up to 30 days. You then remove them and dispose of them. It is my personal opinion that if you can tolerate them the Day and Night Contact lenses would be the best idea. Imagine what you can do with all the time you save because you aren’t busy cleaning your lenses every night.
The more lenses are replaced the healthier your eyes will be. Over time there can be a build up of calcium, lipids, and proteins on them and make your eyes very uncomfortable and make you prone to infections.
Some people wear disposable lenses for theatrical purposes and use color changer lenses. There are all kinds of contact lenses including those with logos and animal eyes.
What are some of the benefits of using disposable contact lenses?
* There is lower risk of infections, lenses are sterile
* There is not enough time for calcium and protein to build up on them.
* They result in clearer vision.
* They are not for use with cleaning solutions.
* There is no worry about having cleaning solutions or storing them.
* Daily disposables are ideal for people who suffer from allergies, especially during the high allergy season.
* The are great for people who wear contacts only a few days a week. They are also cheaper if you wear them only a few days a week.
* If you rip your lenses or lose them, you simply discard them and open a new package.
The benefits of disposable contact lenses are greater than eyeglasses. Some people keep a pair of glasses just in case something has to happen to their lenses.
The decision to use contact lenses including disposable contact lenses should be discussed with your eye care physician. A careful examination should be conducted as well. Do your research some manufacturers of contact lenses will offer you a free trial for at least a week.
You can get disposable contact lenses from eye care places or you can get them online. Either way you will need to have a prescription. Be aware that not everyone can wear contact lenses and only you and your doctor can decide that. You need to decide if you can afford them. Talk to the manufacturers and see if they have any special offers and/or trial periods. Do your research; see what kinds of lens are available for your prescription. Do what is best for you.

Costume Contact Lenses - Be Noticed in the Crowd!

2010-02-18T07:38:00.000-08:00

Costume contacts have always been a favorite tool of movie costume designers. What makes a werewolf appear like a real monster and not just an actor in a costume? The eyes, of course! The eyes make the entire image seem real and very believable.
But the days when theatrical lenses were available only to movie stars are long gone. Now everybody can get a pair of costume contacts that makes their eyes appear bright and inhuman. The only limit is your imagination.
Many people think of theatrical contact lenses only at Halloween time. But there is no reason why you can’t wear them just for going out to the club. If your eyes look like you just came back from Dune, you can be sure that your appearance won’t go unnoticed.
What are my choices?
There are many costume lenses on the market; the most popular brands are Crazy Lenses, by Cooper Vision, and Wild Eyes, by CibaVision. Both Crazy Lenses and WildEyes offer bright, exciting designs. Their lenses are also comfortable and affordable.
If you type “costume contact lenses” into a Google or Yahoo search, many different collections will show up. Some of them offer a great look for a reasonable price. However, you should always bear in mind that most paints are toxic; so some of the lenses on offer might seem beautiful, but the could also irritate your eyes. It is always best to go with costume contacts produced by major contact lens manufacturers.
And for a particularly magnificent effect, you can get scleral contacts. Unlike ordinary color contact lenses, sclerals cover not only the colored part of your eye, but the entire visible portion of your eye. Sclerals create a knock-out effect. The only draw back with scleral contacts is that they are awfully expensive.
You can also get custom-made costume lenses. This way, you can be sure that nobody would have eyes like yours, and you can have any design imaginable.
You can see pictures and reviews of different costume contact lens collections at www.1-contact-lenses-consumer-guide.com/costume-contact-lenses.html
Do I need a prescription for costume contact lenses?
Most brand name costume contacts come in Plano (no vision correction) as well as with corrective powers. And whether or not you need visual correction, you should ask your eye doctor to fit costume lenses for you. Even if you have perfect vision, it is best to see an optometrist first.
Can I see while wearing theatrical contacts?
Yes, you can. Even though the lens is completely opaque, its center is clear so you can see. The only exceptions are white-out contacts, which create the effect of blind eyes. In this case, the entire lens is fully opaque so, unless you want to find out how it is to be blind, you should wear a white-out contact lens in one eye only.
Are costume contacts safe?
There are many FDA warnings about the dangers of costume lenses, although the lenses themselves are usually not to blame. Unfortunately, some people wear their costume contacts for several days straight, or put them in without washing their hands first, or swap the lenses with their friends, and then blame the theatrical contacts when they get an eye infection.
The truth is that if you get reputable brand name costume lenses and take proper care of them, costume contacts are as safe as any other type of contact lens.
Here are 5 simple rules, to keep costume contact lenses safe:

Don’t wear your costume contacts for longer than a few hours
Don’t swap them with other people
Order your lenses from your doctor’s office or a reputable online retailer. Contacts sold in costume shops or flea markets might be of questionable quality
Have an optometrist fit you with theatrical contacts
Clean your costume lenses properly

How do I take care of my costume lenses?
Novelty contact lenses don’t require any special care; you simply treat them the same way as you would treat any contact lenses.
All you need is a multi-purpose solution and a contact lens case, which you can get in any chemist shop. Rinse your lenses in the solution before inserting them in your eyes, and don’t forget to wash your hands before handling the lenses.
When you’re not using your costume lenses, keep them in the solution, in their case. It is recommended that you change the solution at least once a week, if you don’t use them for long periods of time. But who would bother? If you have to wear contacts that have spent a month or so in their case, just give them a double rinse in fresh solution.

Discount Contact Lenses - Tips To Help You Buy Right

2010-02-15T07:36:00.000-08:00

The sales of contact lenses are regulated by the Food And Drug Administration and the Federal Trade Commission. Now it's easy to order the perfect contact lenses online at a great discount. Ophthalmologists are eye surgeons who study and treat eye diseases and can also perform the duties of optometrists. Optometrists examine eyes, diagnose and treat vision problems, and prescribe eyeglasses and contact lenses. In most states they can also prescribe medicine. Opticians grind and dispense eyeglasses and in some states dispense contact lenses.
You'll want to take some simple precautions to make any lens purchase safe and effective. And all correcting contact lenses must have a valid prescription from an ophthalmologist or optometrist.
If you plan to wear contact lenses for more than 18 hours for the purpose of changing your eye color then buy colored soft lenses. You can mark rigid lenses in a way to show which lens is for which eye. They don't rip or tear, so they are easy to handle. Soft lenses are much easier to adjust and are much more comfortable than rigid lenses because they conform to the eye and absorb and hold water.
Soft lenses also come as disposables, used once and discarded, or as planned-replacement lenses. Rigid gas permeable contact lenses are durable, resistant to deposit buildup, and generally give a clearer, crisper vision. In some model lenses, each lens corrects for near and distance vision and in others, one lens is for near vision, and the other for distance.
There are several types of lenses in the marketplace today including soft contact lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses, extended wear lenses and disposables. Keep in mind contact lenses are often more complex than appears. The expiration date for your prescription is currently set by your state requiring a one-year or two-year renewal. If your state hasn't set a minimum expiration date, government regulation sets a one-year date unless your eye doctor determines there's a medical reason for an expiration date of less than one year.
Disposable lenses don't come with instructions for cleaning and disinfecting. But those lenses labeled specifically for planned replacement do. Extended wear lenses are usually soft contact lenses made of flexible plastics that allow oxygen to pass through to the cornea.
Check out any rebates that may be available from the seller, from the manufacturer, for first-time contact lens wearers and for individuals who buy lenses and get an eye exam. Beware of attempts to substitute a brand that is different from the one you want when buying contacts. Ask about discount prices at your doctor's office when you have your eye examination, or during a follow-up visit after you get your prescription.
Always buy from a reputable company. You can buy contact lenses without a prescription, but the company would be selling you a prescription device as if it were an over-the-counter device violating FTC regulations - selling you contact lenses without actually having your prescription. And when you receive your order, if you think you've received an incorrect contact lens, check with your doctor or eye care professional right away; don't accept any substitution unless your eye care professional approves it. There are many good contact lens retailers now on the Internet making their lenses available at a discount for both prescription and non-prescription lenses.
If you have an insurance plan, the insurance plan's seller's prices may or may not be better than what you can find elsewhere. This should be just one option when you're shopping for contacts. Check to see if your health insurance plan includes vision coverage. Compare prices and get quotes from two or three online and offline suppliers.
To be sure your eyes remain healthy you shouldn't order lenses with a prescription that's expired or stock up on lenses just before the prescription is about to expire. It's much safer to be re-checked by your eye doctor. Interesting note: when the eyes are open, tears carry adequate oxygen to the cornea to keep it healthy, but during sleep, the eye produces fewer tears, causing the cornea to swell. And the risk of corneal ulcers for people who keep extended-wear lenses in overnight is 10 to 15 times greater than for those who use daily-wear lenses only while they're awake.
A basic rule: never swap your contact lenses with anyone else. And the most serious safety concern with any contact lens is from overnight use. Replace your contacts as recommended by your eye care doctor because they wear out as time goes by.
If you're looking for cheap contact lenses, you may find that cheap materials or other ways of cutting costs will affect the quality you want. Remember to use only contact lenses that are FDA-approved and only if prescribed by a licensed eye care professional. Ordering discount contact lenses online has never been simpler with, and sometimes without, a credit card.

Say Good Bye to Your Old Glasses and Switch to Contact Lenses

2010-02-14T07:35:00.000-08:00

If you are a long time user of contact lenses you are already well aware of its many benefits. If you are considering a switch over from your old spectacles to contact lenses, let us inform you, you are going in the right direction. Over 30 million people in the USA are believed to use contact lenses, either as an alternative of the traditional spectacle or for some cosmetic purposes. If you too are thinking of stepping into their shoes, then try to equip yourself with as much information about the contact lenses as possible; it will help you to find out the right product suitable for your needs and take the informed decision at the time of purchase.
First of all, you may want to know about the actual definition of the contact lens. According to FDA definition, a contact lens is a prescribed medical device, which is usually placed on the cornea of the eye and used either for corrective or cosmetic or therapeutic purposes.
There are countless benefits of contact lenses. Contact lenses perform the same corrective functions as the conventional glasses, but as opposed to the glasses, contact lenses are virtually weightless and most importantly they are invisible. So they are regarded to be more comfortable than the traditional spectacles.
Then consider the contact lenses from an ophthalmologic point of view: As contact lenses move with your eyes they provide a better field of view. Like the glasses, there are no frames to obstruct your vision and thus they reduce distortions to a considerable point. Sometimes your vision is obstructed as the lenses of your glass get blurred by moisture, rain or dirt; you will find no such faults with your contact lenses.
Do you follow an active lifestyle and every time your spects come into the way of your active lifestyle? Then contact lens can be the only solution for you. If you are in any kind of sports including swimming, diving or athletics, a contact lens can offer you a distortion free clear vision at the time of your movements, without any kind of side effects. It is properly fitted inside your eyes so that it does not affect your concentration in any way.
There are many people, particularly the women who find the glasses to be great hindrance for showing off the natural beauty of their faces. On the other hand, contact lens provides utter ease and comfort and they do not come into the way you look.
You can get modern contact lenses with UV protection built into the material, so if you want protection for your eyes, you can opt for these lenses instead of wearing goggles.
There are people with eternal dissatisfaction over the color of their eyes and they find in the contact lens the golden opportunity to mend the nature to get the color of their dreams.
Part II
So you have almost taken the decision in favor of buying contact lenses after reading about the many benefits of contact lenses! But wait; let’s inform you about the many types of contact lenses you might come across in the market.
In these days contact lenses are made of variety of plastic materials-- but at the core they are of two main types: soft or rigid gas permeable.
Soft Lenses: These contact lenses contain some 25% to 79% water. They are easily to adaptable to your eyes and hence are quite comfortable. With a soft contact lens in your eyes you will barely feel that there is something foreign in your eyes. However, you should be more careful in handling them and they have to be replaced more frequently.
Rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses: These lenses take time to adapt to your eyes. But they have much greater resistance power against deposit buildup. With RGP you are supposed to get sharper vision. They are more durable too. Thus, at the beginning RGP may appear to be costlier, but because of its longer lifespan, RGP gives you better value for your money.
Daily Disposable Lenses: If you want the ultimate convenience, you must go for disposable contact lenses. The cleaning and disinfection procedures with disposable contact lenses are extremely simplified. They are better for your eye health because they are more frequently replaced. Also you always have some spare lenses with you. These days you get the disposable contact lenses in all toric, bifocal, and colored versions. Only you have to be cautious in your handling of these lenses. And for all these benefits you should be ready to pay some extra bucks.
Toric Soft Lenses: These lenses are claimed to correct astigmatism. You can get these types both in daily wear as well as planned replacement versions. You may be required to visit the doctor’s clinic more than once to get a perfect fitting.
Color contact lenses: Then there are those colored lenses that are mainly used for cosmetic purposes. You can get mainly four different types of cored contact lenses, namely, visibility tints, enhancement tints, opaque color tints and light-filtering tints. If you have no vision problem, you can take the ‘Plano’ form of colored contact lenses that do not make any visual correction. You can also get them as disposable or frequent replacement lens.
However there is no hard and fast rule for buying the contact lenses from your eye specialist. You can buy them from any reliable optical stores. You can also try out in the online stores where you can avail the scope of wide comparison. But one important thing to consider, no matter wherever you buy the contact lenses from, your decision should be guided by the value of the product and not only the price.

The Advantages Of Buying Contact Lenses On the Internet

2010-02-12T07:33:00.000-08:00

Over 35 million people in the United States have opted for the use of contact lenses, over other means of vision correction - the main reason being the advantage in terms of vision improvement and convenience of wear. The problem, however, is where to purchase them from, as it is not very easy to do so. Of late, more and more people are turning towards online sources for their purchase of contact lenses. One of the major advantages of buying contact lenses on the Internet is the ease with which you can source your requirements from the comforts of your home.
The Convenience Of Buying Online No more, the inconvenience of making that trip to the local pharmacy, every time you need to replace your contact lenses. With the type of busy lifestyles that many people have, they may not find it convenient to repeatedly visit the local pharmacy or a merchandiser, every time they need their contact lenses replaced, especially as most contact lenses available today are disposables, whether one day disposables, 1 to 2 week disposables, or 30 day disposable contact lenses.
With the kind of premium many place on their time, online buying saves them time, as it takes a few minutes to reorder their lenses, once they have their prescription. Through the Internet, you have the advantage of gathering price and other information from a variety of online sources, comparing the same, and taking your pick of the best offer. You can compare price, shipping costs, delivery times, and quantity discounts, in addition to rebates and special offers, if any, among other information, from the reputed online contact lenses sources.
There are many other advantages of buying contact lenses on the Internet. Let us look at some of the advantages that online purchasing offers.
Buying Less Expensive Contact Lenses Other than the convenience of buying from the comforts of your home, through the Internet you can source contact lenses from a multitude of suppliers and buy from the least expensive source.
However, keep in mind the subtle difference between contact lenses being ‘less expensive’ and ‘value’ of the contact lenses. To get the better value, look to buy contact lenses from reputable online sources. Reputed manufacturers of contact lenses will allow reputable online websites to display their brand logo. If you are still looking for further less expensive contact lenses, go for generic options available, in place of branded products.
According to a March 2004 report from the Federal Trade Commission, their survey “ . . . indicates that there is not a significant difference in price between mass merchandisers and Internet lens sellers, online sales may have a significant convenience advantage for some consumers.”
Buying online saves you the multiple trips to a ‘mass merchandiser,’ if your prescription is not available on your first visit, and you may have to wait in line, too.
Discount Contact Lenses Through the Internet, it becomes easy for you to search for contact lenses websites that supply most brands of reputed contact lenses, at highly discounted prices. When compared to the prices you can buy them at from the shops in your neighborhood, you will find that the price difference is as much as 50 percent to 70 percent. These websites can afford to sell at such discounted prices as they, on an average, sell tens of thousands of a variety of contact lenses globally, each month.
Daily disposable contact lenses, bifocal lenses, contact lenses for astigmatism, special effect contact lenses for special occasions - such as Halloween or Valentine’s Day – and a variety of other contact lenses from a myriad of manufacturers, including reputed manufacturers, such as Acuvue, or CIBA Vision, can be purchased at heavily discounted prices.
Even after considering the shipping costs involved, buying contact lenses on the Internet is always a bargain, though in most cases shipping is free, and the delivery is efficient. The main reason why online contact lens sellers are able to offer you such unbeatable prices is that they hardly have any overhead. Every time you make a purchase on the Internet you save quite a bundle, and with the number of times you need to fill your prescription for disposable contact lenses, your savings can be tremendous.
The Choice From A Large Selection When buying your contact lenses from conventional sources, your choice for selection is very limited. Most merchandisers will have limited stocks from limited suppliers, limiting your choice.
The Internet offers you a variety that is endless. You have the convenience of selecting from all the major manufacturers of contact lenses, and comparing their various features. If you are shopping for non-prescription, costume contact lenses with no corrective power, the choice for selection can be mind-boggling. There is never a question of your ‘choice’ being out of stock, as you can always find it at any of the many online stores.
If you are looking for branded color contact lenses, such as from Acuvue, or CIBA Vision, they are always available, and you can have your selection delivered to you in a matter of days.
Even with your prescription contact lenses, the selection is wide enough for you to fill your prescription with ease. Get yourself a prescription from your optometrist, go online, browse through the various websites, select the contact lenses that you like, and hit the button. That is all it takes.
A Word Of Caution More and more wearers are seeing the advantages of buying contact lenses on the Internet. Still you need to approach the online sources with a bit of caution. Ensure that you are buying online only from reputed sources, and not from some ‘fly-by-night’ operation. You may be getting ‘cheaper’ contact lenses from some sources, but ensure that they are legal and above board.
When you visit a website selling contact lenses, look for that Verisign logo. This will ensure that your personal information -including credit card information, among other forms of payment - cannot be intercepted by any third party.
Use the same common sense you would use when buying anything from online sources for a great online shopping experience.

The Different Designs Of Contact Lenses Available

2010-02-12T07:32:00.000-08:00

Contact lenses have been a boon for people with vision disabilities. They became popular in the United States in the early 1970s, and since then, have caught the fancy of people worldwide. Today, there are prescription contact lenses, as well as contact lenses for cosmetic purposes. There are a number of contact lenses available with different designs for various vision disabilities.
Soft Contact Lens Designs
There is a particular soft contact lens design available to suit a particular vision problem. It does not matter whether you are nearsighted or farsighted, you are suffering from astigmatism, or you need a bifocal prescription for your presbyopia, your ophthalmologist can recommend the best contact lens design that fits with your specific need.
Spherical Single Vision Contact Lenses – These are the most common and popular type of soft contact lenses available. They take care of your nearsightedness, and farsightedness (myopia, and hyperopia). Such spherical single vision contact lenses have the same power all along its curvature. The power of contact lenses is expressed in units known as diopters (D).
As the power in all the meridians of the spherical contact lenses is the same, it is expressed by a single number to describe the lens. Soft spherical single vision contact lenses are made in the power increments of 0.25 D. For example: if your current contact lens power is + 1.75 D, the next stronger power lens available will be + 2.00 D.
The power of the contact lenses that correct nearsightedness is preceded by the minus (-) sign, whereas in the case of farsightedness, the power is preceded by the plus (+) sign. The soft spherical single vision contact lenses that have the power of – 1.50 D correct 1.50 diopters of nearsightedness. The power is at times, denoted as – 2.50 sph, or plainly – 2.50.
Soft Toric Single Vision Lenses – These soft contact lenses are used for the correction of astigmatism, in combination with either farsightedness, and/or with nearsightedness. Astigmatism, quite a common condition, is caused by irregularities in the cornea or lens of the eye. Usually a hereditary condition, in astigmatism, the normal spherical shape of the cornea, or the lens, of the eye is more oblong.
To correct the irregularly shaped cornea of the eye, these soft contact lenses have different powers in different lens meridians. The soft contact lenses usually rotate in the eye. In case of the spherical single vision contact lenses, it does not matter, as the power is the same all around its meridian. In the case of soft toric single vision lenses for astigmatism, the lens has to be kept from rotating in the eye, as there are different powers for different meridians.
This is essential for a consistent clear vision, as the power of the lens must remain in front of the intended meridian. This is done by ‘ballasting’ – a special system of weighting and different thicknesses in different lens meridians. This keeps the lens from rotating.
Two numbers describe the powers of the soft toric single vision lenses - a sphere power (sph), and a cylinder power (cyl). The sphere powers can be preceded by either, a minus (-) sign, or a plus (+) sign, whereas the cylinder power is always in minus (-). In a prescription, the sphere power is always written first, followed by the cylinder power.
The prescriptions for toric soft lens include a third number, known as the ‘cylinder axis’. This power is always preceded by
‘x’ and is also the last in the prescription. This axis denotes the location of the flattest meridian of the eye – the meridian that is for the sphere power – and its angle is measured in degrees.
Soft Bifocal Or Multi-focal Lenses – These soft contact lenses have been designed to correct presbyopia, in combination with farsightedness, and/or with nearsightedness. Affecting adults over the age of 40, presbyopia is the normal age-related loss of near focusing ability.
The spherical power in the soft bifocal or multi-focal lenses correct nearsightedness or farsightedness. In addition, there are one or more magnifying powers for close-up vision. This additional magnifying power, called the ‘add power’ is for the correction of presbyopia. The ‘add powers’, just as the sphere and cylinder powers in soft contact lens prescriptions, are measured in diopters, and always preceded by the plus (+) sign. It has a range from +1.00 to +3.00 D.
The fit of the lenses and the size of the wearer's pupils are some of the factors on which the performance of the bifocal and multi-focal soft contact lenses depends. People who use bifocal or multi-focal contact lenses have a slightly reduced visual acuity as compared to when they use a normal single vision contact lenses for distance vision, and a pair of glasses over their contact lenses for near vision. Still, many are ready to overlook this slightly less clear vision for the ability to read without the need for reading glasses.
There is an alternate way by which presbyopia is corrected by using soft single vision lenses – either spherical or toric. This technique, called monovision, has soft lenses prescribed in such a way that one eye is optimized for distance vision, and the other eye is optimized for near vision.
Contact lens wearers, uncomfortable with bifocal or multi-focal lenses, find monovision single vision lenses better as far as vision clarity is concerned. The major benefit of using single vision lenses in place of bifocal or multi-focal lenses is the affordability. The cost of single vision lenses is significantly lower than that of bifocal or multi-focal lenses.
Contact Lens Designs for Keratoconus

Keratoconus - abnormal cone-shaped protrusion of the cornea of the eye – can be corrected by many different contact lens designs. The ophthalmologist evaluates the requirements of each individual to prescribe a lens that offers the best combination of visual acuity, comfort and corneal health. Each design has its own unique characteristics, and no one design suits all types of keratoconus.
Rigid lens designs, usually spherical, achieve the best visual results. Aspheric lens designs are used in cases of small to moderate nipple cones, where it aligns with the more normal peripheral cornea.

Contact lenses are optical medical devices, just as spectacles are, and often provide cosmetic and optical advantages over them. The more than 35 million people in the United States who have opted for contact lenses over the use of glasses have done so because of their convenience, and cosmetic value. Many people initially feel discomfort when starting to use contact lenses, but the benefits of using them far outweigh these minor discomforts. The Short History Of Spectacles The invention of spectacles has greatly influenced progress in the arts and sciences, yet it is not very clear who invented this instrument. In 1270, Marco Polo saw elderly Chinese using this device, which they claim to have originated in Arabia in the 11th century. The spectacles evolved in the western world from the late 1200s onwards, with riveted spectacles used by monks and scholars, who held the lenses in front of there eyes, or balanced them on their noses. The invention of the printing press in 1452 encouraged the mass production of spectacles, along with the growing popularity of books. For the lower and middle classes, there were spectacles mounted in wood, horn, bone, etc, whereas the upper classes used hand held spectacles in gold or silver frames. The significant advancement in frame design occurred in the 1600s, with rigid bridges that allowed the spectacles to remain in place. In the present times, there has been a tremendous progress in frames and lens acuity, with the spectacles, whether plain or prescription, becoming a fashion statement. The Short History Of Contact Lenses If you are of the view that contact lenses are a new invention, you are way off the mark. Leonardo Da Vinci first described and sketched his ideas of contact lenses way back in 1508! However, it took more than 300 years to fabricate and wear them. Swiss physician A.E. Fick and Paris optician Edouard Kalt are credited with fitting the first contact lenses, in the late 1800s, for myopia and hyperopia. These heavy glass lenses could be used for a few hours of wear only. Plastic came into use in 1936, when William Feinbloom, an optometrist in New York, made contact lenses with the central portion of glass surrounded by plastic in the periphery that covered the sclera. 1948 saw a Californian optometrist, Kevin Tuohy produce contact lenses completely made of plastic. The same year, George Butterfield, an optometrist from Oregon, improved upon Kevin Tuohy’s design with lenses that matched the shape of the cornea, and would not easily pop off. These lenses have evolved to the present soft contact lenses, which are worn by more than 90% of the contact lens wearers in the United States. Contact Lenses vs. Glasses Contact lenses offer functional advantages over glasses in areas, such as sports, work – in humid environment, and in occupations where spectacles are inconvenient and not compatible with the equipment used, such as special headgears. Let us look at some of the advantages that contact lenses offer over glasses: * Natural Vision - As they are worn right on the cornea of the eye, contact lenses provide vision that is more natural. The objects appear in the correct size and position, without any distortion. The distance between the eye and the glasses can vary, causing the objects to appear larger or smaller than they actually are. * Stable Vision – Contact lenses are not affected by quick body movements, such as in sports and similar activities, and remain in place, providing clear and stable vision. Eyeglasses are unstable on your face when running, making your vision unstable, affecting your performance. * Peripheral Vision – Contacts give you a wider and better peripheral vision that glasses. Contact lenses move along with your eyes and you are always looking through the clearest part of the lens – the optic zone. On the other hand, the frames of the glasses block your peripheral vision, and when you move your eyes to the side, you are no longer looking through the optical center, causing blurred and distorted vision. * Unaffected By Weather – Contact lenses do not fog up when you come in from the cold, and neither do they get splattered by rain. In addition, they do not steam up from body heat or perspiration. * Comfortable – Contact lenses are quite comfortable to wear as they do not pinch your nose, or rub or press against your ears and temple, unlike glasses, which, in addition, slide down your nose when you perspire. Contact lenses have been a boon for children in one particular sense. They do not get picked on at school by their friends. This relieves them from the psychological and physical traumas related to wearing glasses. Glasses, at times do not work, and contact lenses are certainly superior to them: * Thick glasses are required in cases of severe short sightedness, making them very heavy, and your eyes look very small. * Glasses do not provide adequate correction when the difference between the visual acuity of your eyes is more than 2.5 diopters - a unit of measurement of the refractive power of lenses. * After cataract removal, your eyes need a special protection, which only contact lenses can provide adequately. With improvements in technology, a wide variety of contact lenses are available, both for ophthalmic, as well as cosmetic uses. People who normally wear glasses can easily and safely shift to wearing contact lenses. People had many misgivings about using contact lenses, and opted for glasses, but these are no longer hold true. There was a time when contact lenses used to pop out, and this was during the time when contact lenses were hard lenses. Today, there is no ‘popping’ out with the introduction of soft contact lenses. These soft contact lenses conform to the shape of the eye, and do not move or pop out. Another myth of contact lenses being expensive is not correct. These are less expensive than many of the designer frames that are available today.

Contact lenses are optical medical devices, just as spectacles are, and often provide cosmetic and optical advantages over them. The more than 35 million people in the United States who have opted for contact lenses over the use of glasses have done so because of their convenience, and cosmetic value. Many people initially feel discomfort when starting to use contact lenses, but the benefits of using them far outweigh these minor discomforts.
The Short History Of Spectacles
The invention of spectacles has greatly influenced progress in the arts and sciences, yet it is not very clear who invented this instrument. In 1270, Marco Polo saw elderly Chinese using this device, which they claim to have originated in Arabia in the 11th century.
The spectacles evolved in the western world from the late 1200s onwards, with riveted spectacles used by monks and scholars, who held the lenses in front of there eyes, or balanced them on their noses. The invention of the printing press in 1452 encouraged the mass production of spectacles, along with the growing popularity of books. For the lower and middle classes, there were spectacles mounted in wood, horn, bone, etc, whereas the upper classes used hand held spectacles in gold or silver frames.
The significant advancement in frame design occurred in the 1600s, with rigid bridges that allowed the spectacles to remain in place. In the present times, there has been a tremendous progress in frames and lens acuity, with the spectacles, whether plain or prescription, becoming a fashion statement.
The Short History Of Contact Lenses
If you are of the view that contact lenses are a new invention, you are way off the mark. Leonardo Da Vinci first described and sketched his ideas of contact lenses way back in 1508! However, it took more than 300 years to fabricate and wear them.
Swiss physician A.E. Fick and Paris optician Edouard Kalt are credited with fitting the first contact lenses, in the late 1800s, for myopia and hyperopia. These heavy glass lenses could be used for a few hours of wear only.
Plastic came into use in 1936, when William Feinbloom, an optometrist in New York, made contact lenses with the central portion of glass surrounded by plastic in the periphery that covered the sclera. 1948 saw a Californian optometrist, Kevin Tuohy produce contact lenses completely made of plastic.
The same year, George Butterfield, an optometrist from Oregon, improved upon Kevin Tuohy’s design with lenses that matched the shape of the cornea, and would not easily pop off. These lenses have evolved to the present soft contact lenses, which are worn by more than 90% of the contact lens wearers in the United States.
Contact Lenses vs. Glasses
Contact lenses offer functional advantages over glasses in areas, such as sports, work – in humid environment, and in occupations where spectacles are inconvenient and not compatible with the equipment used, such as special headgears. Let us look at some of the advantages that contact lenses offer over glasses:

Natural Vision - As they are worn right on the cornea of the eye, contact lenses provide vision that is more natural. The objects appear in the correct size and position, without any distortion. The distance between the eye and the glasses can vary, causing the objects to appear larger or smaller than they actually are.
Stable Vision – Contact lenses are not affected by quick body movements, such as in sports and similar activities, and remain in place, providing clear and stable vision. Eyeglasses are unstable on your face when running, making your vision unstable, affecting your performance.
Peripheral Vision – Contacts give you a wider and better peripheral vision that glasses. Contact lenses move along with your eyes and you are always looking through the clearest part of the lens – the optic zone. On the other hand, the frames of the glasses block your peripheral vision, and when you move your eyes to the side, you are no longer looking through the optical center, causing blurred and distorted vision.
Unaffected By Weather – Contact lenses do not fog up when you come in from the cold, and neither do they get splattered by rain. In addition, they do not steam up from body heat or perspiration.
Comfortable – Contact lenses are quite comfortable to wear as they do not pinch your nose, or rub or press against your ears and temple, unlike glasses, which, in addition, slide down your nose when you perspire.

Contact lenses have been a boon for children in one particular sense. They do not get picked on at school by their friends. This relieves them from the psychological and physical traumas related to wearing glasses.Glasses, at times do not work, and contact lenses are certainly superior to them:

Thick glasses are required in cases of severe short sightedness, making them very heavy, and your eyes look very small.
Glasses do not provide adequate correction when the difference between the visual acuity of your eyes is more than 2.5 diopters - a unit of measurement of the refractive power of lenses.
After cataract removal, your eyes need a special protection, which only contact lenses can provide adequately.

With improvements in technology, a wide variety of contact lenses are available, both for ophthalmic, as well as cosmetic uses. People who normally wear glasses can easily and safely shift to wearing contact lenses. People had many misgivings about using contact lenses, and opted for glasses, but these are no longer hold true.There was a time when contact lenses used to pop out, and this was during the time when contact lenses were hard lenses. Today, there is no ‘popping’ out with the introduction of soft contact lenses. These soft contact lenses conform to the shape of the eye, and do not move or pop out.
Another myth of contact lenses being expensive is not correct. These are less expensive than many of the designer frames that are available today.
Follow the instructions of the manufacturers to take care of your contact lenses, to enable them to provide you with clear and healthy vision.

Cheap Contact Lenses - Buy Online and Save

2010-02-10T07:31:00.000-08:00

The FTC reports that access to online contact lens retailers provides consumers with greater choice and greater savings on contact lenses. With over 36 million Americans now wearing
contact lenses, the FTC continues to fight for the rights of consumers in accessing cheap contact lenses offered by online contact lens distributors.

In the United States, sales of contact lenses are over $1 billion dollars annually. The past few years have witnessed an explosive growth of online contact lens retailers, and other
channels of distribution, offering consumers greater selection and lower prices when purchasing contact lenses. The FTC has played a central role in breaking down anti-competitive barriers in the sale of contact lenses that serve to restrict consumer choice and raise lens prices.

Online contact lens retailers are in a unique position to bring consumers cheaper contact lenses. With the entire globe as their marketplace, thanks to the worldwide reach of the Internet, they are able to purchase massive quantities of brand name replacement contact lenses. The sheer volume of lenses purchased provides them with an excellent price advantage
from brand name contact lens manufacturers. Couple this fact with their ability to operate very low priced Internet storefronts, they benefit from low operating expenses, while being able to buy huge volume. The end result, in simple terms, is that their ability to pass on savings to their consumers is limited only by their desire to make profits.

Over the past few years, the FTC has been active in promoting the ability of non-traditional contact lens sellers to operate in an open, competitive market. A March 2004 FTC report points out that "non-traditional contact lens sellers, such as Internet providers, represent a unique alternative distribution channel and offer some consumers a combination of price and convenience that they value highly". Thanks to recent legislation brought into effect with the help of the FTC and other consumer groups, the ability of consumers to purchase
cheap contact lenses online is becoming easier.

Important among these legislative changes is the Ophthalmic Practices Rule and the Fairness to Contact Lens Consumers Act (The Contact Lens Rule).

The Ophthalmic Practices Rule requires ophthalmologists and optometrists to provide their patients with a copy of their eyeglass prescription at no added cost after the completion of
an eye examination. This was a very important development that helped pave the way for the Fairness to Contact Lens Consumers Act.

The Fairness to Contact Lens Consumers Act, enacted by Congress in 2003, requires that eye care practitioners provide their patients with a copy of their contact lens prescription at no added charge upon the completion of a lens fitting. In the past, contact lenses were replaced infrequently and the lenses were typically purchased from eye care providers. These lenses were far more expensive than the soft, disposable lenses now favored by most lens wearers.

In today's world, the vast majority of Americans wearing contact lenses choose to wear soft contact lenses that require more frequent replacement schedules. These lenses are far less
expensive than the old, hard lenses of the past. As a result, price, choice, and convenience have become extremely important to consumers. The ability of consumers to obtain a copy of
their contact lens prescription then allows them to shop around for the best prices available. The result is increased competition and choice, and this only benefits consumers in terms of lower prices and greater selection.

The Contact Lens Rule (2004) has opened up a huge online ontact lens replacement industry. Many of these online replacement lens companies offer exceptional pricing discounts compared to traditional lens sellers, not to mention choice and convenience when purchasing lenses.

Buying Cheap Contact Lenses Online

How does a consumer know if the prices available from one online retailer are better than those offered by another? There is one simple answer. Consumers must take the time comparison shopping on the Internet, just like they do from traditional sellers. In addition, some other variables beyond price should be considered by online shoppers prior to placing a contact lens order online. The steps outlined below will help any consumer interested in buying the cheapest brand name contact lenses online do so safely.

Step 1 - Compare Prices

Your contact lens prescription outlines the individual features required to meet your vision needs. There are many brands of contact lenses available. Find the lens type that meets your
needs, and compare prices between the leading online lens sellers to find out what online store gives you the best price.

Step 2 - Find out the Real Price

Learning what online store offers the best price on the lenses themselves is only one step. The real price of your lenses also includes shipping. Many online stores offer excellent deals in terms of shipping. Find out if you can get free shipping by, for example, buying two pairs of lenses instead of one.

Step 3 - Assess the Online Storefront

Buying contact lenses online is no different than buying any other consumer good, whether online or from a traditional brick and mortar business. Assess the return policies, as well as customer service access. Any online retailer you buy lenses from should provide an operational toll free telephone number and address, along with clearly delineated customer service hours.

Step 4 - Website Security

Before placing an order for contact lenses or any other product online, ensure that the webpage you are on is secure. A secure website encrypts all the information you input before sending it across the Internet, thereby preventing others from accessing it. Consumers can easily check if they are on a secure website by viewing the small lock icon at the bottom
right hand corner of their computer screen, or by viewing the website address itself. A secure webpage address starts with https:// as opposed to a regular webpage that doesn't include the s (http://). Only buy lenses from a secure website.

Step 5 - Check your Lenses

When your contact arrive at your door, make sure that they are the exact brand name you ordered. Every pair of contact lenses must be shipped with the manufacturer's patient information pamphlet. Accept no substitutes.

By following a few simple steps, consumers can be confident that they are buying brand name replacement contact lenses over the Internet at the cheapest prices available. Buying contact lenses online can save consumers hundreds of dollars a year, with the benefit of increased convenience and choice of lenses. Be a wise contact lens consumer - buy online and reap the savings!

Bifocal and Toric Contact Lenses Offer More Options

2010-02-09T07:29:00.000-08:00

Two of the most common contact lens prescriptions prescribed for people today are for the eye conditions of presbyopia and astigmatism. Modern technology has made bifocal and toric contact lens designs available in both the rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses and the soft lenses, offering more options and wear schedules then ever before.
Only a small percentage of people prefer the rigid gas permeable lenses to the soft contacts. The reason being that the RGP lenses retain their shape over the cornea more successfully than do the soft lenses, and are said to provide crisper vision to people with the eye condition astigmatism. However the majority of people prefer the soft lenses as they come in more choices and take less time to adjust.
Presbyopia is a condition that occurs as the eye’s lens grows older and starts to lose some of its elasticity, which is needed to switch focus between viewing near and far objects. About one hundred million Americans experience this common eye condition. Presbyopia affects most people between the ages of forty and fifty, and is a natural part of the aging process. Once presbyopia begins, your vision will continue to change, so that regular eye exams by your eyecare practitioner will be a part of life. As your eye’s lens looses more elasticity, the eye will take longer to adjust between objects, an example being between the road and the speedometer. Bifocal eyeglasses used to be the only option for people with the condition, but today there are many bifocal contact lenses in a variety of convenient and comfortable designs.
The most obvious sign that you’re developing presbyopia is the need to hold any reading material, like the newspaper or a book, further away from you eyes in order focus and see clearly.
The way bifocal contact lenses work is very similar to bifocal eyeglasses. The contacts have two separate powers on one lens; one to correct distance vision and the other to correct near vision if this is the prescription that is needed. There are a couple of different design options for the bifocal lenses. One of the designs works similar to how the bifocal eyeglasses work with two obvious prescriptions separated with a line (the distance vision on the top and the near vision at the bottom.
The other design works somewhat like a progressive eyeglass lens, having the two different prescriptive powers blended on different parts of the lens, forcing your eyes to learn to differentiate the correct power for the correct distance.
The wonderful thing about bifocal contact lenses is the convenience they offer. Contact lenses are so thinly designed that the wearer doesn’t even know they are there. Contact lenses eliminate the barriers that eyeglasses provide with the line of vision from below, above and the sides of the eyes, allowing for great peripheral vision with the hassle and image distortion sometimes cause by bifocal eyeglasses.
There are three different designs for the bifocal contact lenses, concentric, simultaneous and alternating vision. The concentric designed lenses have one power centered in the lens and the other surrounding it, for example the distance power may be in the center of the lens with the near power surrounding it, or the other way around. The simultaneous vision lenses contain both the near and distance prescriptions centered on the pupil, your eyes learn to adjust to the proper power depending on what your looking and focusing on. Lastly the alternating vision works similar to the bifocal lenses separated by a line with one power at the top of the lens and the other power at the bottom.
There are people who have difficulty adjusting to the bifocal contact lenses and for this reason they may not be the lenses for some people. It does take time for the eye to adjust to the two different powers within the lenses, with exactly how much time to adjust varying from person to person. It’s important not to give up right away and give the lenses a chance, as some people take longer than others to get used to the lenses.
If however you are unable to see clearly with the lenses, your eyecare practitioner may recommend the monovision lenses. With these particular lenses, one contact is worn with one power to correct the distance vision with the other lens correcting the near vision. Some people adapt to these lenses immediately. If having to wear bifocal lenses for the first time and your concerned about what will work best, your eyecare practitioner may have some free-trial programs in place allowing you to try out different lenses before deciding on a particular pair.
Astigmatism is the most common of vision problems, and may be accompanied by nearsightedness (hyperopia) or farsightedness (myopia). The cause of astigmatism is an irregularly shaped cornea, which can be corrected with toric contact lenses. Until recently soft contact lenses were not available for astigmatism correction, but fortunately toric contact lenses are now made in disposable, frequent replacement, multifocal and colored lenses (there may be some complex prescriptions that are not available in the soft lenses). Toric contact lenses come in both soft and rigid gas permeable (RGP) designs.
Toric lenses are created with two powers in them, one for astigmatism and the other for myopia or hyperopia. Toric lenses contain a ballast system (bottom of lens is thicker), which keeps the contact in one position. The cost of toric contact lenses is more expensive than regular contact lenses, as the fitting procedure for torics is more extensive; the lenses are also more expensive than regular lenses.
Toric contact lenses come in many options, your eyecare practitioner will help you select the lenses with the best compatibility for your specific eyes. Multifocal toric contacts offer correction for presbyopia and astigmatism; these lenses are available in soft and RGP varieties, the rigid gas permeable lenses being the recommended of the two.
Contact lenses are a convenient and healthy way to treat your eye vision problems. Both presbyopia and astigmatism correction can be easily achieved with a small adjustment period, without the inconvenience of eyeglasses. A visit to your eyecare practitioner can assist you with the lens choice and replacement schedule best suited for you.

Halloween Contact Lenses -- Great For Halloween And Costume Parties

2010-02-06T07:27:00.000-08:00

Halloween contact lenses are special effect contact lenses that can be worn on Halloween, or on any other special occasion, such as costume parties. Such contact lenses have been used in the movie industry for ages to create a monster, or a character. Recent movies, such as Interview With The Vampire, Bram Stoker's Dracula, X-Men, The Grinch, among others, have used special effect contact lenses to create a strong visual impact. They have also been used for years on television, theatre, and even rock concert stages.
You too can do the same on some special occasion. Halloween contact lenses could be perfect for bringing the character in your costume to life! There are various decorative contact lenses in a variety of styles. From the simple ones - that will convert you into a red eyed alien, or a green eyed reptile – to the more elaborate ones with zebra stripes or flowers, they are a great way to enhance your Halloween ensemble.
Buying Halloween Contact Lenses
Halloween contact lenses are available from a variety of sources, including online sources. However, you should know of certain things before you buy a pair.
Nearly everyone can wear special effect contact lenses. If your vision is normal, you can go for plain lenses with no corrective power. Corrective contact lenses for special effects are also available, including toric contact lenses for those suffering from astigmatism.
Even if you are going for plain costume contact lenses, it is always advisable to consult your optometrist. When ordering these special effect lenses, always ensure you have your prescription ready, especially when buying from online sources. Halloween contact lenses, like ordinary every day use contact lenses need to be ‘fitted,’ hence the prescription. Decorative lenses, if improperly made, can cause eye injury, which could eventually become permanent.
These costume contact lenses are not dangerous, as long as you buy them from reputable contact lens manufacturers, or from well-known and trusted online sources. However, they must not be swapped with other people, as there is a danger of picking up an infection. They need to be cleaned properly, just as you would your normal contact lenses.
Even though costume contact lenses are totally opaque, your visibility is unhampered because of the center of the lens - which is clear. The exception is in the case of white lenses for blind eye effect – which are totally opaque. Anyway, these are worn one at a time only.
However, you may notice that your peripheral vision is slightly affected when wearing these decorative contact lenses. Though Halloween contact lenses are as good as daily use contacts, it is advisable not to use them continuously for more than 8 hours.
Caring For Your Halloween Contact Lenses
Halloween contact lenses are like ordinary contact lenses that everyone uses. You need to remember one thing, though. You may be wearing such costume contact lenses for fun, and for a short time, but these are medical devices, and need to be cared for as such.
Caring for them is quite simple. A no-rub multipurpose solution, a pair of plastic tweezers, and a contact lens case, which are all available from any chemist shop, is all you need. There are no other ‘special’ solutions required, only make sure your multipurpose solution is labeled – ‘for soft contact lenses.’ If you have more than one costume contact lenses, arrange to have a separate case for each.
This is what you should do to care for your costume contact lenses:

Before handling your contact lenses, always wash your hands with soap.
Pick up your lens gently with tweezers, taking care not to tear it.
Place it on your fingertip and rinse it with a no-rub multipurpose contact lens solution.
Insert it in your eye.
Repeat the same for the lens of the other eye.
After use, take them out of your eyes, give them another rinse with the no-rub solution, and place them in the case with the fresh solution.

As is normal, you would be using your decorative contact lenses, once in a while, on special occasions. As there may be a gap of several weeks in between uses, it is advisable that you rinse the lenses, and change the solution, once a week. If you forget to do so, and your lenses have remained unattended in their cases, give them a double rinse, and soak them in a fresh solution for about a couple of hours, before wearing them.In case you do not use corrective lenses or color contact lenses on a daily basis, the usage of costume contact lenses may cause a slight discomfort in the beginning. Do not rub your eyes, and instead use lubricant drops that are easily available from the corner chemist shops. To get used to the feeling, you can start by wearing them a couple of hours a day, every day, from a few days before the day of the party.
The Variety In Costume Contacts
There are endless varieties of decorative contact lenses available for all occasions, including Halloween. You can browse the Internet to pick up the ones that go with your costume. Some of the high quality, affordable Halloween contact lenses that are popular, and create great effects are:

Alien
Blackout and whiteout
Hypnotica
Cat eye
Ice fire
Red hot
Black, red and white spiral
Wolf

These are mass produced costume contact lenses. You can also have your contact lenses custom made, which are hand painted, and may be more expensive. Then there are the Scleral costume contact lenses, which are quite more expensive than the other costume contacts. These lenses, not only cover the pupil and the iris of the eyes, as other costume lenses, but the whole sclera – the visible area of the eyes.Sclera Halloween contact lenses provide an absolutely magnificent effect and are quite comfortable to wear. These unique custom made contact lenses require a special prescription, as the optometrist has to measure your eye.
Make your choice of the Halloween contact lenses and have a great time at the party!

Prescription Eyeglasses Or Contact Lenses Which is Better ?

2010-02-04T07:41:00.001-08:00

Many means have been used over time to correct vision. The monocle and eyeglass on a stick came before prescription eyeglasses that had first had limited styles. As technology improved, lenses for glasses were getting smaller.
A lot of people were looking for eyeglasses to wear that they didn't have to worry about being lost or getting broken. Contact lenses were great but expensive when they came along. You would have to get new lenses if you lost them or dropped them.
Someone I knew lost a contact lens and developed an eye infection. The doctor found on examination that the lens had slipped out of place. Rigid contact lenses took some getting used to. People wanted softer lenses that were flexible, and easy to put in.
People wanted lenses they could wear all the time because the softer lenses had to be removed and cleaned every night. As more people were able to afford contacts because of the lower prices they got sick and tired of cleaning them and the expense of all the cleaning solutions needed.
It would be wonderful if contact lenses could be disposed of at night and people could get rid of the cleaning solutions. Disposable lenses came out in 1987 and were designed to be worn for a certain period of time before you needed to dispose of them.
There are terms and explanations that will help you understand disposable contact lenses. Contact lenses that can be worn for up to two weeks, discarded and replaced are called disposable lenses. Frequent Replacement lenses are replaced anytime from one to three months.
Every six months traditional/reusable lenses are replaced if not before. You can wear Extended Wear lenses for up to two weeks even while you sleep. The need for cleaning solutions is eliminated with daily disposables because they are removed and discarded every night.
Together with your doctor the right replacement schedule for you will be decided on. How you wear your contacts will help determine how often your will need to remove, replace, and/or discard them. Day and night Contact Lenses - You wear these lenses day and night for up to 30 days.
After they are removed you get rid of them. The best idea in my opinion is the use of Day and Night Contact Lenses if you can tolerate them. Think about what you can do with the extra time you will have since you won't be cleaning your lenses every night.
You eyes will be healthier the more often you replace your lenses. Your eyes could be come very uncomfortable and you could become prone to eye infections because over time lipids, proteins, and calcium could build up on them.
Some reasons to wear disposable lenses are for theatrical purposes and color changer lenses are often used. Among the wide variety of contact lenses available are animal eye lenses and those with company logos. What are the benefits, if there are any of disposable contact lenses?
Lenses are sterile and there is a lower risk of infections. There is little time for calcium, proteins, and lipids to build up on them. You will have clearer vision with them. They are not to be used with any cleaning solutions.
Storing cleaning solutions and having them is no longer necessary. The ideal lens for people with allergies is the daily disposable lenses especially during allergy seasons. If you only wear contacts a few times a week, these are great. If you wear contacts only a few times during the week, these are cheaper.
If your lose them or you rip your lenses simply throw them out and open a new package. There are greater benefits to disposable contacts than there are to eyeglasses. Many carry glasses just in case something happens to their contacts. Discuss the use of any contact lenses including disposables with your eye care professional.
He should perform a thorough examination of your eyes as well. You can get a free trial period of wear for up to a week from some manufacturers, if you do the research. You can get disposable contact lenses from online and from traditional eye care/wear places.
You need a prescription for contact lenses no matter where you get them. You should know that not everyone can wear contacts, only you and your doctor can make that decision. Make sure you will be able to afford them.
Contact manufacturers for special offers and/or free trial periods. Check out what lenses are available for your personal prescription. You need to do what is best for you.

The majority of contact lenses purchased are soft and Lenstore.co.uk only stocks soft contact lenses. Hard (or "Rigid Gas Permeable") contact lenses do exist and are typically for patients who suffer from severe astigmatism and irregular corneas. Your Optician will let you know if hard contact lenses are the most appropriate for your eyes but for the majority of people soft lenses provide the best option.How to get contact lenses for the first time
If you currently wear glasses and want to try contact lenses the first thing you should do is book a contact lens examination with your Optician. He / she will take you through the whole process of getting fitted for contact lenses. Your Optician will first check if your eyes are suited for contact lenses (most people's are). He / she will then train you in how to insert and remove your lenses and will also show you how to clean and take care of them. Next you'll be given a trial set of contact lenses which normally last a week. At the end of the trial week you visit your Optician again and he / she will ensure that your eyes have reacted well to the lenses. At that point you'll buy three months supply of contact lenses from your Optician and wear them. After three months, you'll visit your Optician for the last time during the fitting period and he / she will write you a prescription. Make sure you grab a copy of your prescription. You've now been officially fitted for contact lenses and can buy them from whichever supplier you choose.
Putting your contact lenses in
Step 1: Wash your hands with soap, rinse them thoroughly and dry them with a clean towel.
Step 2: Place the contact lens on the palm of your hand, check that it is clean and not torn.
Step 3: Ensure that the contact lens is not inside out (if it is the edges will flare up slightly) and place it on your forefinger (your pointing finger).
Step 4: Insert the lens. Use the forefinger on your opposite hand hold up your upper eyelid to prevent you from blinking. Use the third finger on the hand in which you have the contact lens to hold down your lower eyelid. Look up and place the contact lens onto the white of your eye. Look downwards to allow the lens to slip into position. Remove your fingers and close your eye momentarily. Your lens should be in place.

Have a Second Thought of Buying Online Progressive Eye Glasses

2010-01-18T21:03:00.000-08:00

Nowadays, more and more people choose to buy eyeglasses online, either prescription or non-prescription types. The Internet does offer some benefits for online customers. There are currently online sunglass stores, prescription glass stores and goggles shops. It is easy to sell those non-prescription glasses such as sunglasses and protective goggles, because they do not need a prescription from the customer. It is still simple to provide single vision spectacles online because a prescription solely for nearsightedness or farsightedness is not complex enough. It is amazing that there are currently many vendors selling multifocal eyeglasses online. Bifocal glasses, trifocal glasses as well as progressive spectacles are available on the Internet. It is absolutely true that these multifocal eyeglasses require more complex prescriptions. The most complex type is certainly online progressive eye glasses.

Featuring seamless power progression and no visible lens lines, progressive eyeglasses are attracting a large amount of customers. In addition, those progressive glasses sold online further attract individuals by means of offering competitive prices. It is reasonable for some customers to buy discount progressive glasses from an online store, for these glasses usually charge higher prices than regular ones and bifocal or trifocal ones. But at the same time, buying online prescription eye glasses requires some precautions because these glasses are so special. There are only certain factors that are under the control of customers who try to purchase a pair of progressive glasses online. They can choose a lens material from regular plastic, glass, polycarbonate, high-index and photochromic types. Actually, the thickness of lenses made of high index materials can be decided by the index. The higher the index, the thinner the lenses. For instance, 1.74 index lenses are normally 50% thinner than 1.50 lenses. Another decision that can be made by an online customer is the progressive technology. There are mainly Traditional Progressive and "Wide View" Free Form Progressive. The latter type is less likely to cause visual distortion.

On the other hand, there are some shortcomings of buying online progressive eye glasses. It is widely known that progressive glasses are designed with a gradient of powers. In most cases, such a gradient should be adjusted according to specific wearers. Both the addition power and the length of the power gradient should be customized for individual wearers. These factors are generally out of control when customers buy progressive glasses online. In addition, it is very likely that a customer still need to make a further adjustment even if he has received a pair of online progressive eye glasses.

Problem is though; there is a huge number of websites online that sell contacts and choosing the one that is cheapest or "the best" isn't the easiest of tasks.

Despite the fact that most contact sale sites are safe and reliable these days there's always the risk that the site is a front to just steal personal information.

Most sites are safe and most people who want to steal contact information would be more apt to use sites under less skepticism and review. Really most are safe and you'd be hard pressed to find one that wasn't but with identity theft such a common occurrence it is always better to be safe rather than sorry.

The biggest thing that people look for when trying to choose a website to order contacts from is the price. While many may offer similar prices for their contacts there is more to ordering contacts online than just the actual unit price of the contacts. Shipping is a big aspect that needs to be taken into consideration because shipping with some companies can really be murder, many sites offer free shipping and the extra time it takes to shop around to find a site that offers free shipping seems well worth the extra time it takes to find a site with free shipping. A lot also offer discounts when buying in bulk like lens.com which offers free shipping on orders over $99, a $30 rebate when buying 8 or more boxes, and also $13.24 when buying more than 8 boxes which is less than what most sites that sell contacts ask.

Halloween Contact Lenses Tips and Trends

2010-01-18T20:46:00.000-08:00

This Halloween, why not take your costume to the next level? With Halloween contact lenses (also commonly known as "special effects contact lenses" or "decorative lenses") you can do just that. As long as you adhere to the health and safety advice mentioned below, Halloween contacts could be the perfect finishing touch to bring the character in your costume to life!
Special effect contacts have been used in film, television, and theatre, even rock concert stages, for years, and now they're available at affordable prices to you, the consumer. You can find decorative contact lenses in all kinds of styles. From simple colors (ever wanted to be a red-eyed alien or a green-eyed reptile?) to elaborate designs (zebra stripes, stars, flowers, X's...) there are as many ways to use decorative contact lenses to enhance your Halloween ensemble as there are jack o' lanterns aglow on All Hallow's Eve.
Some of the great designs and styles of Halloween contacts available this year include: hypnotic spirals, cat eyes, wolf eyes, eagle eyes, bloodshot eyes, flames, all-white, all-black. It really gets your creative wheels spinning doesn't it? What are you going to be this year after all?
One variable you'll have to consider when poring through the choices is whether you want Halloween contact lenses that cover the entire sclera (that's the whites of your eyes) or just the pupil (the eyeball). There's plenty in either category, making it either harder or easier to decide, depending upon your viewpoint.
Knowing the kind of look you're going for will help a lot. Are you, for example, trying to transform yourself into a particular character (a Vampire, possibly, or even more specifically, the Vampire Lestat himself - because that's available too)? Special effects lenses that include the entire sclera often creates an all-encompassing, fully-transformative effect, incorporating more of the whole body into "becoming" this other figure. But maybe you merely want to accentuate a "look", the zeitgeist of an era, or an abstract concept. For this latter option, a cute design or a picture superimposed on your pupil alone, like a temporary tattoo, might be just the thing.
Some current favorites of the decorative lenses you'll find include those with the Biohazard /"Radioactive" symbol, symbols of poker suits, stars-and-stripes, Dune eyes, dollar-sign eyes, spider webs, smiley faces, both Predator eyes and Alien eyes, both Darth Vader and the Sith. You'll find styles and designs both timely and timeless as you explore all the options of Halloween lenses available.read more

Since the Sharingan are so popular, there are a few companies that have started making sharingan contact lenses. These contact lenses look exactly like you see on all of the Naruto shows. I have two of these contact lenses in person, and both looked spectactular.

The first sharingan contact lens I saw resembled a radioactive sign with 2 dots at the top and one dot in the middle below the top two dots. These contacts had a thin black line around the outside that faded into the middle. They looked good, but not as good as a the second set of contacts I saw. The second pair looked like exact duplicates.

The second pair of Sharingan contacts I saw were hand painted and looked like they were created by the same artist the drew the Sharingan. The lenses were the standard red and black. The full contact was red with a thin black line bordering the outside. In the middle, the pupil was black and there was another faint black line outside the pupil. Attached to that line were two dots in the north west and south east corners of the eye. An exact replication!

These lenses will instantly connect you with any Naruto fans you come in contact with. They're perfect for conventions and meet ups with other fans.

Next time you're at a Comic Con, make sure and look for other people wearing Naruto contact lenses!

When taking information from online sellers ask for: the brand name, lens nomenclature, and the power. They must give you details such as sphere, cylinder, axis, diameter, base curve, and peripheral curve. There are today over 36 million Americans wearing contact lenses and the estimated sale of contact lenses is well over USD 1 billion dollars a year. And, a substantial amount of the sales is generated by the internet.

1. Online sites offer a consumer greater selection as well as lower prices. Often the savings can be as much as 70%.

2. By choosing to buy contact lenses online you have the right to choose. Instead of just buying what is stocked by a shop close to where you live you can explore different sites that offer contact lenses from major manufacturer’s online and compare not just prices but things like durability, lens care, and safety measures. Sites like shopping.com and froogle.com among other shopping sites will permit you to check prices as well as types.

3. Online sites do not just sell contact lenses. They take eye care a step further and host a number of articles on the different kinds of lenses, lens care, the eye and problems, what solutions exist for any vision related problems and FAQS.

4. Many manufacturers are also selling contact lenses at the company website. So, if you have already used a certain make of lenses and are comfortable with them then all you have to do is, order replacements. Many company sites also offer cleaning solutions at competitive rates.

5. Most online sellers of contact lenses have experts who will answer your every question and guide you through you choices of lenses. The sites explain details like which lenses are suitable for sports, when contact lenses are not recommended for use, and how you must choose a contact lens.

6. Many online sellers waive shipping costs if your order exceeds say USD50. So, apart from making a great saving on the cost of the lens you get the advantage of the lenses arriving at your doorstep for no extra charge.

As a discerning consumer try and buy from a reputed store. Always check out whether there are any complaints against the online store with the better business bureau or in forums or blogs. Find out whether the address, and toll free number given at the website actually works. Most trustworthy websites have a clear customer policy in place.

Since you will be paying online you must ensure that the website’s payment gateway is secure. Check and see whether the site has the Verisign SSL seal. And, never buy a lens because its cheap, x, y, or z recommended it, or because the website has posted a huge advertisement for it. Only buy an established and reputed brand. Follow your eye doctor’s recommendation.

A reputed site selling contact lenses will make the effort of checking your prescription with your own doctor. However, you must also check that the lenses that arrive are the ones you need.

Cheap Colored Contact Lenses - A Fresh New Look

2010-01-09T20:14:00.000-08:00

These are modern times now, we no longer need to wear glasses all the time, and can go for contact lenses or even surgery in some cases, but this is really not a new thing. What might be news for you is that you can change the color of you eye as well, or even give it different shapes and sizes where imagination is really the limit.

Why would i want to change the look of my eyes?

Do you go to the hair salon to get a new hair cut/style? Do you like to shop and wear new types of clothes that you would not normally wear? This is really about trying something new, we are all humans, and no human likes to look the same way all the time, and do the same thing everyday, it is just part of us.

So why not change your eye style, it may seem like a taboo now, but trust me everyday more and more people are doing this, it does sound expensive, but it is a lot cheaper than you think; on a personal note i categorize this as some sort of makeup, if you see it that way you will have no problems applying it to your lifestyle.

Just think of the possibilities, did you ever wonder how you would look like with a different colored eye, or even a mix of colors, i know it sounds tempting because it just is.

But i don't even need glasses or contacts, my eye sight is fine, can i still try this?

Sure you can, there are two types of colored contacts, the ones that require prescription and can be graduated to fit your needs, and the ones that require no prescription; these last ones include all of the fantasy contacts as-well. If you have poor eyesight or have a 20/20, you can wear colored and fantasy contacts, no issue whatsoever, just keep in mind that some fantasy contacts, are really not meant to be used for long periods of time, mainly due to their shape and size.

Tell me more about the different colored contact lenses?

I like to split them into three categories:
- Color Enhancers
- Color Replacements
- Fantasy/Crazy

The Color Enhancers are usually mono-colored and blend you natural color with the color of the contact, these are a good colored contact for someone who just wants a subtle change in their look and as natural as possible.

The Color Replacements can be mono or dual toned, and they will replace your original color, depending on the one you choose the look can be more or less natural, but generally speaking these are still not extreme, as they are available in regular eye color combination. Having these in mind, my favorites are the dual toned, because they blend two colors and that just makes your eyes pop instantly. This type of lens with cause some stares, and friends will definitely notice that you have something different.

Finally we have the Fantasy and Crazy contacts, and this is a really extensive category, just think of different eye styles that you see in the movies: vampires, cats, monsters, blind, mirrored, deep red, opaque... these are all available as fantasy contacts. These i think should really only be used in parties and of course Halloween, but if you want the real extreme in crazy contacts, have a look at the sclera lenses, these are nothing more than lenses that cover the whole eye (including the sclera, and not just the iris), they really put out a scare.
