. As such, there has been somewhat of an explosion in the colored contact lenses market, though whilst they were initially quite expensive, this is not the case anymore. A kaleidoscope awaits, and with special designs and effects too, people can really go to town.

In the majority of instances, a persons sight will not be impaired in anyway; each of the colored contact lenses have a clear centre. This sits over the pupil, so does not affect the working of the eye. Such is the quality of many lenses, that they are now beginning to be seen being bought with prescription lenses, and some are even including bi-focal lenses.
When they first started to appear, the lenses were not really up to much; being something akin to the eyes a child would draw. Over time though, the quality has improved greatly and, with the natural tones, many would struggle to notice they're lenses, unless they were really get up close and personal.

Getting the balance right for day to day use is important too; it can be all too easy to go for something too subtle or worse still, too noticeable. A little care and thought is always advised.
The special effect designed contacts have come an even longer way. Because of the details of the designs it was a rough road making these look natural. However, there are many varieties available and they are starting to appear very natural.
Some of the concerns of colored contact lenses and effect lenses include visibility changes. There are times the lens may slide slightly covering your pupil and reducing your vision. This is normally a temporary concern that can normally be corrected by blinking. Another concern is because your pupils change size the contacts may cover part of them, causing a longer lasting visual impairment. This is generally resolved when the light gets brighter.
Looking after colored contact lenses is no different from looking after regular lenses. They need to be removed before sleeping, soaked in a suitable solution when not in use, and thoroughly rinsed before putting them back in. Should this step be forgotten, it is unlikely to happen again; Ouch! For advice, a chat with an optician is always good, but with so many suppliers online now, finding exactly what you want should not be hard.
