Cheap Color Contacts


by: Ross Bainbridge

Color contacts are a great way to change the color of your eyes and get an all new look. Color contacts have all the advantages of regular contacts. They are just color tinted to provide a different and unique look to the face. Color contacts can also be used to correct vision problems like myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism or presbyopia, just like regular contacts. There are also colored contacts that correct certain conditions of crossed eyes without surgery.

There are many kinds of color contacts available today depending upon the kind of material; soft or hard; transparent or opaque; the objective of wearing a lens (vision correction); the price; and many other categories. There are PMMA lenses, gas-permeable lenses and soft contact lenses. Some are disposable while others can be used for a very long time. Color contacts are basically of four kinds: enhancement tints, visibility tints, opaque color tints and light-filtering tints. The most common colors are: blue, green, brown, hazel, gray, purple, aqua, turquoise, and sapphire. These can be chosen to suit your skin color. There are also novelty color contacts that have unique designs on them, like zebras, cat eyes, white-out, jaguars, wildlife, red hot, ice fire, hypnotica, knockout, aliens, wolves, stars and stripes, fire etc. These can also be custom designed to suit your costume. Laminated hand painted contacts are highly preferred to get the right natural color.

These days, there are many discounts and rebates being offered for color contacts. Offers such as buy-two-get-one-free are very common. Some providers also offer major brands like Acuvue, Bausch & Lomb, Ciba Vision, Coopervision, Sunsoft and others at very low prices. Some suppliers offer heavy discounts up to even 60%. Such offers can be found through the Internet. The local optometrist would also be able to suggest the latest deals for cheap color contacts.
