Every year as the Halloween approaches; social media begin
flooding with horrific stories of permanent blindness caused by crazy Halloween contacts. Yet; hordes of people gather, sport costume contact lenses, freak
others out & make an eye-appalling transformation without any trip-overs. It
is true that crazy contacts can be scary but only if purchased from
non-authorized sellers. Over the counter zombie lenses; purchased from gas stations,
beauty salons & flea-markets pose serious risks of infections. Luckily there
are better alternates- always make your purchase from reputable sellers that
ensure you get certified & genuine novelty contacts.
As per a recent study conducted in Japan; where costume
contacts are a rising trend and a hefty business, it was discovered that some
of them contain chlorine & iron that may be damaging and threatening to
eyes. Fake contact lenses use hazardous dyes that may leak into your eyes
whereas the pattern leaves the surface uneven that cause corneal bruises. On
the other hand, crazy contacts purchased from reliable vendors are manufactured
under strict health standards using only FDA approved methods and pigments.
Crazy lenses are fairly common in the market but uncommon in prescription.
Therefore people with severe vision impairment should observe caution whilst
wearing them for longer duration.
As long as you are taking care of your eyes & investing
only in branded circle lenses; you are covered. Crazy lenses are nothing unusual than regular contacts. The only discrimination is the pattern that is
made so to send down the chills. Some lenses due to the opacity & heavy
pattern may obstruct vision partially but they do not hurt your vision. Experts
however warn trying hands on sclera contacts if you are not already accustomed
with wearing 17+mm circle lenses.
