All about coloured contact lenses
Contact lenses are first and foremost an optical device used to correct a visual problem.
However, contact lenses can also be chosen in different colours for a variety of reasons.
Here's the essentials you need to know about coloured contact lenses.
Where to buy coloured contact lenses ?
As with conventional contact lenses, coloured contacts should be purchased from a professional.
Buying coloured lenses from an optician is a guarantee of safe, high-quality equipment.
This is essential since the lenses are placed directly on the surface of the eye.
Quality coloured lenses ensure that they do not irritate or even damage the eye.
Coloured contact lenses can be bought in optical shops or on our website.
You will also be given advice on choosing the right model and colour for your equipment.
Bought from an optician, coloured contact lenses are completely safe to wear.
Can coloured contact lenses be corrective ?
Generally, coloured lenses are bought for a new look or for originality.
This type of contact lens can be chosen for everyday flair or for a special event.
However, coloured contact lenses can be more than just a cosmetic accessory.
They can also be used as corrective lenses and issued on prescription.
People with myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism will be able to choose coloured contact lenses to correct their visual problem.
The request must be made in advance to your ophthalmologist, who will then be able to prescribe the equipment in the requested colour.
The professional will then be able to determine whether you have any contraindications to wearing coloured lenses.
Wearing coloured contact lenses
Even if they are cosmetic, coloured contact lenses should not be worn carelessly and should follow the same rules of use and hygiene.
As with conventional contact lenses, particular care must be taken when inserting and removing lenses, which must be done meticulously.
Coloured contact lenses are generally single-use disposable lenses.
These lenses can be worn for up to eight hours, cannot be immersed in water and must be removed before going to bed.
For more information, don't hesitate to ask your Optical Center optician for advice, in shop or online.
