Sclera Contact Lenses - Red, Black Or Green?
Sclera contact lenses are a very different type of contact lens. Instead of covering just the iris and pupil of the eye, these lenses cover the entire eye leaving white specks only in the corners of your eyes. They are used for multiple purposes like helping the eye to heal from various surgeries. These contacts are used for cosmetic reasons as well such as to fit an irregular cornea. They actually help patients have more stable vision. This type of lens has been used for decades in the movies and has just in recent years become popular.
There are a multitude of contact lenses on the market including different brands, styles and designs that can satisfy just about any taste in lenses. Some online retailers offer contact lenses for sale but you must have a prescription for them. Others do not require a prescription but you must see an optometrist in order to get the measurements of your eyes in order to purchase the right size lenses for you to wear. Some retailers such as Lensmart offer you a selection of colored lenses for cosmetic use. Many of these are extended wear lenses meaning you can wear them for no less than a week at a time without ever changing lenses or cleaning them.
Ciba is a website that specializes in contacts and all of the products needed to care for them. You must have a prescription for these lenses. However other companies such as mail order houses do not require a prescription and they offer you all of the crazy and weird lenses you are looking for. You can use them for Halloween to complete a costume by ordering red, green or black lenses. Many bands buy the special effects lenses that are on sale from FX who have been supplying the movie industry for decades. You can find them online and take a look at the various styles and designs they offer.
Sclera lenses are also available at some retailers but they are not quite as popular as the special effects lenses. They tend to be less comfortable than the cornea style lenses although they can be rather interesting. You can use them to surprise your friend by wearing red, green or black one. No one would expect to see you with your entire eye in these colors. They produce a weird effect to the eye and leave only a small spot of white so no one knows they are not your real eyes.
If you are looking for extended wear lenses, your local optometrist can assist you. If you are looking for information and cleaning and care products for your Halloween lenses, Ciba can offer you a wide range of products. FX offers you a large selection of crazy eyewear as does Lensmart. Each of these websites carries a large selection of eyewear you can buy, many with sale prices. Caution should be taken when ordering Sclera contact lenses from a mail order company. It is advised to have a professional measure your eyes, write it down and then send this to the company.
