"Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses - Page 3

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts

Not sure where she got them from..but theyre a brand called colourvue n the style is stars and jewels i think.. Hope this helps

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I'm so late, but I actually bought some from Honey Color, not the big eyes ones, the Tri-Color ones by GEO in gray. And they're awesome! Good quality. I'm wearing them in my main picture on myspace. They definitely make my eyes look brighter, than the other gray contacts I had, a great alternative to the big eye look.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

Wow those look amazing! Do you have to get your eyes measured first? How does that part work?

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I actually just ordered them. I did go to the eye doctor a few weeks ago but they were acting really snooty and I had a bad experience so I just went off on my own and bought them and tried them out. I do plan to get fitted for them in the future when I find a doctor that will be more open to help me or find somewhere else where I can get fitted. But yea anyway, I previously used Expressions by Cooper Vision and just for some reason I struggled so much with them. These were much easier and looked better IMO.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

Does anyone know if these would work for people with really large pupils? My pupils are so big that I can't wear regular colored lenses because the colored part obscures my vision, but it looks like some of these might have a larger area for the pupil.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

am i the only one freaked out by these?? lol they look scary.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I remember trying to get the Expressions contact lenses too through my eye doctor because they thought they were neat and not that much pricier than my Freshlook Colorblends or Acuvue 2 Colored lenses. But he explained to me that before I couldn't even order them and that I had to get a demo one from the company sent in for me to try first because they were too large for my eye or something. So I'm thinking maybe that's why you had issues with them fitting correctly.

Also, I don't really want to be the party pooper here. But with colored contacts its VERY IMPORTANT that you don't wear them for a prolonged period of time or on a daily basis. This is because the colored part of the lens covers that certain part of your eye...umm your pupil?(sorry if its wrong, I suck with eye terms) blocks a lot of oxygen from reaching your eyes. Which in the long run can cause a lot of problems since we all know oxygen depravation of any kind is bad. It's actually worse with circle lenses since the color part of the lens covers even more area on the eye which means even more oxygen depravation. Now I'm not saying to not ever wear colored/circled lenses just limit yourself to only wearing them either for special events, going out or for only a few hours or a few days out of the week. You should actually switch up wearing contacts and glasses to allow your eyes a few days to just "breathe". So just be careful ladies!

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

These look so neat!

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

Want lots!! New lemming.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I totally ordered a pair, they're pretty inexpensive as far as contact lenses go. I'll post about how they are when I get them...

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I own these contacts now, and wear them almost everyday, just as KrisyVictoria above me said they are very inexpensive compared to most contact lenses and i personally have found them more comfortable. And im not even exaggerting when I say every day that I wear them I get at least one compliment on how nice my eyes are

I love them!

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I just ordered some of these from another site, and I'm really curious as the how they're going to look on my light eyes. I guess we'll see!

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I love seeing pics of people wearing big-eyes! They give the most gorgeous effect, like living doll eyes! I would love to try them out but I am petrified of contact lenses and have a phobia about hurting my eyes.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I will say this:

Please do your research before purchasing these lenses online. They are a lot of fake circle lenses that are manufactured with unsafe ingredients and can do serious damage to the eye. So, before you click purchase on a website, make sure that they can provide you with proof, certificates from the manufacturer allowing them to sell their lenses, and the like.

Not to mention, they are scammers out there . . . with the growing popularity of the lenses, they are people out there who will take your money and not send your lenses, or send you fake ones.

I suggest reading through the Circle Lens thread on Soompi.com. It may be a lot of pages to read through but the information provided in that thread is valuable and extremely important when considering this.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

weird.... I do NOT like them. Looks like blown out pupils from drug use.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I totally agree. I really do want to try them out as I love the whole big eyed anime look sometimes. BUT I'm not willing to purchase any kind of contact lenses unless they were ordered directly from a doctor's office or a reputable contact lens seller such as 1-800 Contacts.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I thought I was the only one who didn't like them. To me they look kinda creepy, but I guess to each their own

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I didn't quite like the lenses and they looked pretty scary when I first saw them online. However, my sister changed my mind! She owns 3 pairs of them and they look really pretty.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

My first pair that I got two weeks ago in natural light:



and with a flash:


please excuse the fug. My hair was a MESS that day

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

^You're on Soompi! I saw your post, the colour is so vivid.
I love the Geo Animation lens- I have CP-A4 and CP-A1. I also own Nudy Violet.
I hope the pics don't turn out huge.

CP-A4:


Nudy Violet:


CP-A1: (these ones slip a lot)


I'm currently waiting for my Violet Wongs to arrive~

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

^looks great on you!!!

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

Hello, I am a Caucasian girl with green eyes and I love the big eye look, I posted some picks for you all. I naturally have pretty large eyes and dark rings around my iris but circle lens really bring them out. These lens are Colourvue Big Eyes, natural ring, with my perscript -2.00. I love them. I have more natural ring contacts, not sure who makes them but they are called Big Eye 2, I get thoses from lensalot.com I believe and then I get the Bigger cutier ones from contactsbay.com, they are pretty cheap and get to my house in the middle of the US in about 2-3 weeks.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

A patient came in the other week with acuvue defines on and it sparked my interest. i bought some acuvue define in accent black with my prescription (-2.00, -3.00) and can't wait to get them. The reason I chose Acuvue Define is because Acuvue is a reputable brand (I flip flop between Acuvue Oasys and Acuvue Moist right now) and since they're one days, I can toss them. Does anyone currently wear these??

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

I have apair of these in black. They are Geo Lens. I really like them, and most of all the black doesnt look freakish on me. I guess because my eyes are soo dark already. I like the effect the black circle lens give you.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

i just ordered like 4 pairs, and i got one free pair. And free lens cases with EVERY order!

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

Cool for temporary, not viable for permanent. Imagine wearing contact lens for your whole life, your eyes will be suffocated.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

My friend's cousin in China wears these, and I have to say they're very unsettling to look at. I always felt vaguely disturbed by her without realizing why, until I was told much later that she wears these circle lenses. Her eyes just looked vacant and alien-like and completely unreal. Some of the colored ones in this thread look beautiful, but the very dark brown/black ones are just too far into the realm of anime/alien and just utterly freak me out.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

Don't you need to see an optometrist before you use any sort of contact lenses??

I really want to get a pair but I'm concerned about all the stuff that goes with looking after contact lenses - cleaning/disinfecting/storing etc... I have no idea

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

^ like I said before I went to the optometrist and they were a bitch to me I would've been better off going to some place in the mall.

I've had my Geo Tricolor Lenses for a few months now. I've just followed simple care instructions like using Disinfecting Solution, Protein Removers, cleaning the case etc. My eyes are fine. I don't wear them a lot, I used to wear them like 5/7 days, lately I haven't been wearing them a lot but they're still in good condition. I think they will really last for a year like the website says, but I'm probably gonna buy a new pair eventually.

Re: "Big-Eye" Contacts / Circle Lenses

^ So true. I went to make an appointment after I posted and they were reluctant to even give me a fitting, they were just like well you have to get tested for glasses first and then you can talk to the optometrist about contacts.

I've done some research on how to care for them so I might just bite the bullet and order a pair and see how I go
