Vampire Lens

Every generation comes with an interesting twist in fashion, and right now the vampire look is in. Along with the black clothes and pale skin, many are opting to finish off their look with vampire contact lenses.

In the clubs and on the street you might be coming across many interesting individuals with distinctly different colored eyes. Some vampire contact lenses might come in pure white, with only the pupil visible, and others an uncharacteristically pale blue. Some new agers might opt for cat eyes. The pupils in the cat eye design have long black slits- distinctly different from the rounded human pupil. Some vampire contact lenses might be completely blacked out for an especially haunted and evil look. The designs are seemingly endless and have vampire fanatics sucking them up just as quickly as they are hitting the optical marketplace.

 

 

These interesting contacts can be bought in prescription as well as nonprescription (or Plano). This is happy news to former prescription lens wearers that are looking for a newer and cooler look. Nonprescription lenses can be bought just about anywhere, and are somewhat inexpensive. Prescription vampire lenses must be made by a company that specializes in making prescription lens wear, and buyers must know their current prescription.

The price for nonprescription vampire contact lenses vary by company. Some companies sell their contacts for as low as $30, and some as high as $100. Be aware that there are distributors of vampire contact lenses who do not follow FDA standards, and could sell products that potentially damage the eyes. Contact lenses are not like aprons; one size does not fill all. If you wish to buy prescription vampire contact lenses, be sure you are up-to-date on your prescription. Some companies that sell colored lenses will ask for one standard power for both lenses. But as most of us who wear corrective lenses know, both of our eyes are usually not the same prescription. The advisable thing to do is buy your lenses from a company that specializes in regular prescription lenses; one that offers no gimmicks, and is approved by the FDA. You might even be surprised to find that your own optometrist has unique styles of lenses that mimic the vampire look. A months worth of lenses might cost as low as $30.

 

 

Beauty has a price, but the price should only reach as far as our pocket book when it comes to creating interesting and unique eyes. Vampire contact lenses are fascinating. The subculture born out of the glorification of vampires is fascinating. But to be unique we must not risk our health, or our vision.
