No If you dont need a prescription,then they have basic ones to decorate the eyes.

no you cany,they come in sizes. so even with no perscription in them you need a doc because everyones eyeballs come in different sizes
all things considerd, i'll take the zero.

I got special fx contacts for this Halloween and I thought I could just buy them since I had never needed contacts or glasses- but no place will sell them to you without a perscription for the sizing of your eyes. Luckily I have eye care coverage under my insurance but to get fitted and the exam still cost me $50 bucks. Then I shopped around for weeks trying to find the lowest price on the lenses- which was Walmart. Another $84 bucks since they were nonperscription my insurance wouldn't cover the cost which sucks. All-in-all I spent more money than I would have liked to, but it was well worth it b/c they really make the costume and I would have never worn anything on my eye that was not doctor approved or properly fitted. Do some research and you will read some horror stories of infections and blindness. Hope this helps!

I was at the eye doctor the other day and I was looking at the contacts while I waited and they had some really funky colors, not meant for Halloween, but would look cool. So I asked how much they cost and they said they were expensive, but they would give me a trial pair which was sweet. But then I found out they didn't have them in prescriptions so I had to pass.
This was at Lens Crafters, I'm not sure if they would give a sample, you could say you're thinking of getting colored contacts if you could have a trial pair. They had some really nice blue contacts.

ALSO....if you've never had contacts before, they are possibly going to feel really weird to you. And if it's the first time you are wearing them, you're not supposed to wear them for a long period of time, like maybe 5 hours at the most cause your eyes are not used to a foreign object in them. I wear contacts all the time, you can get infections very easily if your eyes don't get air. I suggest putting drops in your eyes first to at least keep some moisture in them.
