Halloween is coming up so you better get ready! A perfect addition to any costume is some nice and freaky costume contact lenses. There are a few companies out there who make them. One of the most popular is Wild Eyes. They offer a wide variety of crazy looking contact lenses. A new player in the costume contact lenses game is Gothika. These guys actually made contacts for the Twilight movies!
One thing to keep in mind is that – at least in the United States – costume contact lenses are considered medical devices by the FDA. Therefore, even though your costume contacts may not be used for vision correction, you still need to get a prescription from an eye doctor before you can purchase them. It is good that you know this NOW before you go shopping so that you aren’t disappointed.
As with any pair of contacts, you should take care of them carefully. Make sure you clean them before and after you wear them, and don’t wear them for prolonged periods of time. No matter how wild and crazy your Halloween party might get, don’t forget to remove your costume contacts before going to bed!
