I can't believe how popular it's getting now for people to change their eye color. Lots of people are doing it and the more I look into it, I find out that there are a lot of people interested in it and many doing it.
Even more, I've come to find out that you can get no prescription color contacts for free. Yeah, you can try different brands and color for virtually no cost. This will help you not only find the color that looks the best on you but you also get to see which brand fits best on your eyes. Pretty cool.
People today are doing this for many reasons. Some people are wearing them all the time (extended wear), giving themselves a whole new look while others just wear them if they go out at night or something (daily wear). It's up to you. I think it would be fun to try them first at night and see what kind of reaction you get. Also, if you're not used to wearing contacts yet, just wearing them at night would be a good, easy way to start.
The most popular color of color contacts seems to be green. People with brown eyes find green as a nice eye color. If they have dark skin, it also goes well with their skin color. It's not as dramatic as going to blue colored eyes and is probably a bit more believable, too. That's why I think green color contacts for dark eyes is a popular choice.

Non Corrective Colored Contact Lenses to Change Your Look
Have you ever considered changing your eye color? Do you want to try blue eyes, green/hazel eyes or even gray colored eyes? You can with colored contact lenses and it's not that difficult of a thing to do.
Many people are not aware that they can get colored contact lenses to change the color of their eyes without the contacts being corrective. You can get contact lenses that have no corrective powers. They are called "plano" contact lenses and have no magnification or vision correction. This means you can wear them when you want, like for going out for a night on the town or for special events.
When choosing a color, you can make as a dramatic of a change as you want. You can just simply enhance your eye color or you can totally change it. If you want to completely alter the color of your eyes, then you will need opaque colored contact lenses. These totally block out your natural eye color and your eyes become whatever color the contact lenses are. Some of the more crazy designs are used for Halloween costumes or for theatrical performances or even photo shoots.
To get non corrective colored contacts is simple. You'll need to stop in to an eye doctor to get fitted and then you're allowed to place an order. One popular brand is Acuvue colored contacts. Most people get that brand. It's a good idea to go with a name brand because you know quality materials are being used. You would never want to get cheap colored contact lenses from a drugstore or some website because they would not be fitted for your eyes and they may be made of inferior materials that could actually cause damage to your eyes. Your eyes get oxygen not from your blood stream but from the surrounding air. So if that air is passing through a contact lens made of some bad kind of material, then it will pick up that material and it will go right into your eyes. This could cause very serious eye infections. So get good ones.

Trouble With Contacts - Getting Free Samples
I called my eye doctor at Sears Optical the other day and I explained my problems with my contacts. I explained that the toric lenses I have keep slipping and they go out of focus a lot. At the beginning of the month, I tried a new pair since I change mine monthly and I was still having this same problem as before.
Their solution is to order me a free, trial pair of contacts with my prescription to see if the batch I got was bad or something. With something so small as a contact lens, if they are just a little bit off when making them, there can be problems. So I'll get this trial pair and see if they work better. Hopefully they will and hopefully I'll get a free replacement order. We'll see.
So if you are having problems with your contacts, it makes sense to call your eye doctor or optometrist to see what they can do for you.

Problems With My Contacts This Month
I don't know why but the new pair of contacts that I put in my eyes this month aren't as good as the ones I had in last month. At night, my eyes get dry and things seem out of focus.
I do have astigmatism, so my contact lenses are toric lenses and they have small weights on the bottom of them to keep them in place. I think that's why they're going out of focus - because my eyes are dry and the lens can't get into the right position as easily. I'm going to get some rewetting drops and see if that helps. I've been switching to glasses at night though. I figure that's better than straining my eyes.
If that helps, I'll put a post here so that maybe it will help someone. I think it will. If not, then I might see about getting a different brand that next time I place my order, which is probably next Spring - if I can wait that long. I think the drops will help at night. I might just try to get some more sample contacts from different manufacturers next time so I can see more difference from other brands of contact lenses.

Looking for Nonprescription Colored Contacts?
It's fun to do things to change your appearance. Many people are searching to find ideas to do this and one thing that comes to mind is changing the color of your eyes. It's pretty easy to do now and there are a lot of great colors and styles to choose from.
Another reason people are looking for colored contacts is either for their Halloween costume or for a theatrical performance. Doing that can really finish off the look and create a very dramatic appearance, too. People will notice and will be talking about your costume. Most people don't know this can be done, so they actually are shocked when they see it for the first time.
To get colored contacts, you should check out which styles are available. There are a number of manufacturers but you're best off going with a name brand manufacturer so that you know they are using quality materials. Even though you may just wear these special, colored contact lenses for a short time if it's for a Halloween costume, you want to make sure they are good quality and will not hurt your eyes from a cheap manufacturing process.

How to Get Contact Lenses for Free
You maybe have seen the offers and are wondering how people are getting contact lenses for free. Let me take a minute and briefly explain how you can also take advantage of offers for free contacts.
The way it works is, the manufacturers of different brands of contact lenses do not frequently advertise nationally on places like TV or the radio. You do see some ads in magazines and sometimes commercials on TV but they've chosen to instead put that advertising into offering free, trials of their product for you to sample. This works well in a number of ways. First, they get their product into your hands (or into your eyes - depending on how you want to look at it - sorry for the puns). Secondly, you get to try out various contact lenses and see which ones you like the best. You may be using one particular brand now but after trying a different brand, you may find that they fit better and are easier to take in and out. You don't know until you try, right?
So offers for free, trial contact lenses benefit both you and the manufacturers of contact lenses. It's a win-win situation and you get to save money on contacts while you are sampling the trial pairs. So find all the offers that you can - for sure. In doing that, you're sure to find the best ones for you.
If your contact lens prescription isn't up to date, you'll need to go see your eye doctor. It's good to do that anyway, so no big deal. You're not going to be able to get free contacts unless you have a current prescription because it does cost money for the manufacturers to make and send them to you. They're going to need to know that the ones they're sending are ones that are right for you and ones that you will need in the future. So make sure you do that.
You can, and probably should, first find offers for free, trial contacts before you go see your eye doctor. Find offers online and fill out whatever information they need so that you get the information on how to order them. Once you've had your eye exam, you'll then be ready and will know how to order your free contact lenses. Go ahead and order all the trial pairs at once. You can keep them all around until you're ready to try the next brand.
As you evaluate each brand, you will want to take notes on how each one feels to you. This will help you make your final decision later.
Also, if any of the trial contacts don't feel right, you should stop wearing them. Trust what your eyes are telling you.
