Contact Lenses

Former Member

I need to get prescription contact lenses as i can't wear glasses, the only thing is I wanted to get some coloured or styled ones not just plain clear ones, does anyone know what opticians are good and will do nice styled ones?

Also, how expensive are the styled ones?

Former Member

why cant you wear glasses?

Former Member

had operation on my ear, glasses rub and hurt the scar tissue

You can get prescription coloured/styled contacts but they do cost quite a lot. Ask your optician.

What's wrong with normal ones like everyone else?

Former Member

'Cause Hellfires different, surely you knew that by now?

probably more gemo if you ask me.

i dont like my eyes so i figured why not change them...

Former Member

For crying out loud contact lenses are not a fashion accessory, they are for people with bad eyesight :banghead: Just wear fucking normal ones. Jeez.

Former Member

in fact, even normal ones are a luxury for people with bad eyesight.

johnsons do coloured contact lenses, they are avaiable in most opticians, I know for a fact they do them at vision express.
they do a good fitting service there too.
that said, they're only different colours, you cant get things like cats eyes shaped that are prescription too.

tell me about it...my eye doctor almost wouldnt let me have contacts, if my astigmatism was any worse id have to wear glasses

Vision express have coloured lenses,there exactly the same as regular focus daily soft disposible lenses only coloured obviously, i think there about £30 for 24 lenses (12 per eye)

he should wear completely blacked out ones so he cant see us coming

You can get them from most opticians, but they are quite a bit more expensive than clear lenses. My suggestion would be to get clear ones for day to day wear, and then get a set of coloured ones to just wear when youre going out or something. Theyre a bit of a luxury really to be wearing for everyday. Whats wrong with your eyes? They just looked like normal eyes when I saw you. Its not like coloured lenses really change what your eyes look like, they just change the colour, subtley, depending on what your original colour is.

whats the problem if he wants to buy coloured contacts?

Former Member

My friend, who happens to be blind as a bat bless him, got some blue coloured contacts and I dunno how much they cost him but they didn't look real at all.

You'd never look into his eyes and think wow haven't you got lovely blue eyes, that's what he wanted people to think, but you wouldn't cos they just had a fake cheap look about them.

So maybe you're gonna have to fork out quite a bit to get a decent pair.

I dunno though, I don't wear them or glasses so I haven't got a clue really.

I just hate it when people want glasses or contact lenses to be 'fashionable' They should try having to wear them every fucking waking hour. :mad:

And yer, stop trying to be cool.
