Pitch Black Mirrored Contact Lenses : Party With Pizzazz
Chances are, you've probably seen some people here and there with some pretty wild colors and designs on their eyes, usually in movies and on television shows. If so, you may have wondered what that would be like, and you may have imagined that it would be really cool to be able to make your eyes look like that for your next party or holiday. Well, guess what? It's easier than you think. You don't have to be an actor to purchase theatrical contact lenses or special effects contact lenses anymore. There are plenty of sources these days for special effects contacts, and at a reasonable price. If you really want to be the life of your next party, there is one variety of lenses you should try, that are really wild - pitch black mirrored contact lenses.
Visual Effect - With pitch black mirrored contact lenses, your eyes will appear to be totally black. At a party, the other guests will really be freaked out when they look you in the eye, and can't see the whites of your eyes or your pupils. This can take a scary Halloween costume or other outfit to a new level. These contacts can also blow your friend's minds and get some looks and stares when you show up for dinner or a night out, with solid black eyes. The impact you can get is only limited by your own imagination.
Features - Pitch black mirrored contact lenses are mirrored (just as the name says), so you can see out, but other people can't see in. The sclera of your eye (the white part) is totally hidden by the black color of the lenses. To the beholder, it looks like there's just a couple of black shiny holes where your eyes used to be, and it gives them the impression that you can't see. It's really fun to see all of the creepy, nervous laughs you'll get. One downside of special effects lenses is that special features which are available in regular contacts, will be more limited for special effects lenses. For example, if you usually need a toric lens for astigmatism, and you want it in a pitch black mirrored contact lens, you may be out of luck; however, keep looking, because manufacturers are constantly expanding their product lines to meet demand, and special effects lenses may appear with more and more features (like toric lenses) as time goes on.
Where to Buy- Special effects lenses like these are no longer just limited to the theatrical community. They are so popular that plenty of companies now offer them to the general public. Just go online and you'll find companies like CibaVision, which markets it's "WildEyes" line of lenses, and CooperVision, which markets "Crazy Lenses". You can find a whole variety of special effects ("Special FX") lenses for sale, including pitch black mirrored contact lenses.
Safety - You'll notice that a lot of companies sell pitch black mirrored contacts without any questions asked. You may not feel like you need to get a prescription if you're not wanting them for vision correction. However, a prescription is still advisable, because improperly fitted lenses can damage your eye. Also, pitch black mirrored contact lenses are just like regular contacts, when it comes to the importance of regular cleaning to make sure you don't risk excessive bacteria and eye infection.
If you follow the usual rules for contact lenses, about proper fitting, care and cleaning, you can have a great time freaking people out, while staying safe and comfortable at the same time. If pitch black mirrored contact lenses, or some other types of special effects lenses, sound like a cool idea to you, shop around and pick a pair. Combined with your favorite party or other gathering, you'll create a sensation that people will talk about for months to come.
