Dressing up as a werewolf, a zombie or Dracula is easy using Wild Eyes contact lenses from Ciba Vision. Become the main Halloween party attraction with coloured contacts.

Halloween is a time for dressing up but finding a suitable fancy dress outfit can be time consuming and stressful for those lacking imagination or the time to spend making a homemade costume.

The current craze for wearing crazy coloured contact lenses offers an easy way to create a scary look. Go to town and add appropriate ghoulish makeup to your costume or just arrive in a pair of dark glasses and prepare to wow the rest of the party.

Wild Eyes Contacts

There are many online websites selling cheap Halloween contact lenses but it is advisable to choose coloured lenses from a reputable manufacturer that has been approved by the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration). One of the biggest quality manufacturers of cosmetic contact lenses is Ciba Vision which offers the Wild Eyes range of soft contact lenses.

Their most popular unusual colour lenses include Hypnotica, offering a black and white spiral effect to look like a zombie; White Out for a blank spaced-out look; Red Hot for evil Dracula-like eyes and Wildfire, for that ultimate wild eyes look.

The official Wild Eyes website gives suggestions of what makeup to wear to enhance the effect of their coloured lenses although the vivid effect of wearing different eye colours with just plain clothes is spectacular enough.

Coloured Contact Lens Prices

Wild Eyes lenses from Ciba Vision retail at $81.95 per lens but can be bought at a discount for $57.95 per lens from reputable online optical retailers like AC Lens. A quick Google search will show many companies selling cosmetic Halloween contact lenses at very low prices, some for less than $30 per pair.

Most of these cheap coloured contacts are unbranded and available in plano form only with zero vision correction. Even though they may only be worn once or twice, it is important to buy lenses from a trustworthy manufacturer or risk potentially serious eye infections due to poor quality materials that could scratch the eye.

How Comfortable are Halloween Contact Lenses?

Wild eyes contacts are soft opaque lenses that are recommended to be worn for no more than 8 hours. Lenses are thicker than most daily disposables or bi-monthly lenses and allow less oxygen through the lens which can cause eye irritation to some wearers. It is best to wear the lenses for a few hours a day before the Halloween party to avoid any discomfort on the night.

Lens thickness on coloured contacts is also the reason why crazy contact lenses are not available as daily disposables which tend to be super thin as they don’t require cleaning.

Caring for Coloured Contact Lenses

Halloween contact lenses are medical devices and not just fashion beauty products; they should be treated with appropriate care:

Always ensure lenses are clean before inserting into the eye.
Don’t wear them for extended periods, especially if eyes feel sore.
Never share lenses with friends to compare effects on other people.
Always disinfect and store lenses in the contact lens solution recommended by your optician. Ensure that the solution is changed regularly if lenses are stored without wearing for more than a month.
