Kate, actually there are prescription circle lenses, though usually only in more normal colors, like brown, blue, green, but sometimes there aren't for different model lenses (which I don't think anyone really knows why). But they only mainly have them for myopia, not anything else, and I hear there are -some- for astigmatism but I haven't really seen any. And yeah, it usually only goes up to -5.00.

Circle lenses aren't catered towards only the lolitas, but fashion-forward people in general. There's really no additional risk with circle lenses as any regular lenses, if you don't take care of them well then things are bound to go wrong. Although there are huger risks if you happen to buy them through a shady seller, who gives you counterfeit brands. I mainly buy through secreteyes.org who gets their things straight from the manufacturers, some of them providing seals that proves that they are real. And honestly... they're not noticeable unless you focus on them. That's including any part of your pupil happen to be poking out in the middle, no one will particularly notice unless your eyes are really that light. Then of course, there are models that concentrate on making the color look natural along with cute and dolly-like.

Which brands are those with the prescriptions? And I'd heard that the risk was slightly higher, not like... hugely but enough to be noted, due to a difference in the water content?
I think it depends by model, rather than brand. Orrr I dunno xD Cuz I dont think anyone ever really asks.

I know some GEO lenses have the prescription option. Like my Honey Wings, they had offered prescription but i didnt know mine at the time i bought em so I didn't get them. Wonder Eyes, which are the really huge ones I'm about to order, have them, I don't know who's their manufacturer though. I'm sure there's more, but I look at mainly GEO-brand and then these new Wonder Eyes.

Well, all brands have prescriptions avaiable for their lenses but some lens series don't have them...

However, this is what I mean with lenses that have a to big hole so your eyes look wierd.

Those are supposed to be like that, with the thick black ring. Unless that's not supposed to be black? I assume it's the lighting that does that to her eyes. But if they were in natural light, they wouldn't look as odd.

Ohhh, so those are the other kind. Yeah, something like that wouldn't look right if you were to pay attention (especially with that color combination, brown and blue? Like really). Though, it probably looks better in other color sets, depending on what you try and what your eye color is.

I think that you get the most attention when you wear two different colors so that you look like if you got heterochromia. I will buy new ones soon and just can't decide if I get the very big ones or two common ones in different colors. heart

I think all the different types of Heterochromia look pretty, I don't know how a lot of the colors look so together when they do, but I guess it's because they look like that... marble sort of effect, if you know what I mean? I always loved Turkish Van cats because of their eyes.

I personally cannot do the complete heterochromatic look, with one eye completely different color from the other, but I've been wanting to get green lenses so that my eyes will have that brownxgreen look. Though it would look better if my eyes were more hazel, but it's whateverrr.

I had never heard of these before this thread. They're quite interesting, but I could never see myself owning a pair, because I had contacts at one point and never want to do that again. Also, my eyes jerk a lot, so nothing is comfy. (They're also purple/blue already.)

I think that they look good on other people. Just remember to do your homework, and, if you get some, clean them properly!

Well, there are so many different styles in the way the lenses look existing that there is sure for every person a fitting one existing but it is sure hard to figure out what would fit somebody best.
