any1 use them? I may order some thru visiondirect.com. Halloween lenses are 15% off but u can use the code 20save to save 20% and shipfree1 for free shipping.

I got a pair for this year and have used them in the past, be easy they can tear easy but you can see out of them, I got a pair for $20, go to youknow it .com, they are in the UK it took about 4-5 days to get here...hope this helps

last year i bought from thses people and they have a garuntee https://extremesfx.com/s-9-red-halloween-contacts.aspx I had a hard time trying to get them in and finally I went to lenscrafters where a dr showed me how to put them in and take them out. This company i called them for help and they gave me tips also offered me a refund if I couldnt get them in.

They have great customer service and the shipping ws fast. I highly recommmend them!

I wish I could wear Halloween contacts, but my eyes are so bad, they usually don't have my power. I mean, my eyes are so bad that most eye doctors don't have a sample for my right eye power. It sucks, because they can add so much to a costume.

I got mine a couple years ago for 10.00. I went to get my yearly vision exam and noticed that the eye center sold those contacts. I have 20/20 vision but my ins allows for one pair of contacts per year, so all I paid was my ins deductible.

I just ordered them so we will see how it works out. The doctor pretty much thought i was nuts.

I tried ordering from Vision Direct last year, but they said US law requires a doctor's prescription. I have 20/20 vision, so I went elsewhere. I ordered from colorlens4less.com from Hong Kong. Got the red wolf eyes and loved them.

I found youknowit.com this year and might get the red cat eyes for my costume, Sabbatha from Living Dead Dolls.

*stepping up on soapbox*

The reason US law requires a doctor's prescription is that contacts must be fitted to your eye. Regardless of vision correction. It's never a bad idea to get an eye exam, no matter how good your eyes are, and it only takes a few minutes.
Do what you want, but I cannot be too clear about the dangers involved in wearing contacts that have not been properly fitted. You only have one pair of eyes and you shouldn't risk them.

Sorry folks. Pet peeve. Nothing personal. Just want people to be informed.

Thats the reason I went thru a doctor. The small cost compared to the big cost of damaging my eyes. Its not worth the risk.

Geez... I had no idea. I thought it was just because I had 20/20, like I had no right to have contacts, even the crazy ones. Good to know!
