Where to get blue contact lens??

hihi all!!
I want to get a pair of soft len, non corrective (have no effects on eye, no prescription) light blue contact lens. How much do they usually go for and where to get them best?? (If the contact lens can be used for a period of 1 year or more instead of monthly disposable, that would even be better!!)

Thanks ^___^

I was actually wondering how blue eyes would look on an asian person...considering the dominant eye colour in asians is brown.

Make sure you buy the ones with black lines on the outside, and the colour you want on the inside. It will match your eye colour nicely, making it look realistic.

I used to have green contact lenses, and they look real.

Ya I had mine back in.... 1996 I think... yes they had prescription. Dark green with radiating black lines and a black circle that completely cover up your eye (whatever that black part is called, I forgot... cornia?).

That makes it look real, real as hell. I think back then, I paid 280 for pair. So 140 each, and I destory one of it one time cause when I was cleaning it, I rubbed too hard.... so I paid 70 to replace one. And guess what... I rubbed a hole in it, again duh...

So I stopped wearing contact lenses, and went back to glasses.

Joe, you would look sick in dark green, gray and blue. Those are the nice colours for Asian.

See the artist's contact lense, you will see the black lines I was talking about.

Thanks Charles!
I hope the non-prescribed ones are cheaper, lol!! They are too expensive for me!!!

The artist looks so cool with the blue in it! Do you think his is light blue or dark blue???

I think his is dark with camera light reflection so it looks light blue.

Light green and light blue or light brown will make it look fake and people will know in a heart beat. Dark colour will be much better and I believe non-prescribed ones should be cheaper.

Just clean them gentlely... don't do what I did LOL

The pic of that guy looks scary

Not really scary its just takes a bit of getting used too. For me personally I don't like when people wear contacts, because you can always tell when they are and its looks so fake.

If you like em, wear em.

Yeah, we sell them at shoppers drug mart.
If you wanna come down I can get you 30% off, they come to like $30 or so I think.
Come in some wicked ones too, I only got basic green and blue ones though.
