About Coloured Contact Lenses
Coloured contact lenses are a growing fashion trend in Canada and beyond. For the first time in history women (and men) can control more than just their hair colour, lip colour, and skin colour.
How do Colour Contacts Work?
Don’t worry, your red contact lenses won’t turn everything you see red! Coloured contacts are the same as regular contact lenses, except that that a small ring of colour is printed in the middle. This ring is just large enough to cover your iris (the coloured part of your eye), and has a detailed pattern which resembles a natural iris. The middle of the printed ring is clear, so that it doesn’t block light from entering your pupil.
Do Coloured Lenses Really Work?
Before buying your colour lenses, you may wonder how much difference they’ll really make to your appearance. Most people will notice your new eye colour immediately. However some people (mostly guys!) wouldn’t even notice if you began shooting red laser beams from your eyeballs. A few pairs of coloured lenses are not expensive, so you can safely try them out and see and see your friends’ reactions.
Choosing Coloured Contact Lenses
Like choosing different lipstick and hairstyles, selecting a pair of coloured contact lenses should be fun! Think about what would complement your skin and hair colour; for example blue contacts goes well with light skin and blonde hair.
Ask your friends what colour suites you! Ask both boys and girls to get a variety of opinions. You can always purchase several small packs of different coloured lenses to give each a test-drive.
Cost of Coloured Contacts

Regular (clear) contact lenses (both prescription and non-prescription) are manufactured in similar ways, and have a similar price. Coloured contacts are available in monthly, weekly, and daily disposable varieties, with daily lenses tending to be more expensive, but also more convenient. For a price example, a single pair of monthly-wear coloured contacts can be purchased online for about $30 (Canadian).
Buying Coloured Contacts Lenses Online
If you have never worn contact lenses before you need to visit a Canadian optometrist to obtain a prescription before you can buy prescription contact lenses. If you already have a prescription that is less than two years old, you are clear to buy contacts online and have them mailed to your home.
If you don’t need a prescription (if your vision is good), then coloured contact lenses can be purchased online in Canada without a prescription, as they are for cosmetic use only.
