Do you love Halloween? If so, you may want to experiment with theatrical lenses. These can have a pretty dramatic effect on your eyes! However, that isn't necessarily a good thing. These have the potential to cause some very, very serious injuries and infections.
These lenses work because they use a tint that hides your eye color. They come in many different colors and designs. Some of the more dramatic ones? Pure white, pure black, cat eyes, alien eyes, and reptile eyes.
However, you should only buy these from licensed eye care centers. You also need a prescription, even if you don't need vision correction. The biggest safety issue is not getting the lenses properly fitted to your eye. A badly-fitting contact lens can cause pain, injuries, and infections. Some of the potential risks include corneal scratches, blindness, vision loss, and conjunctivitis
Reach out to your Tustin, CA optometrist to get fitted for custom lenses.
