Good Afternoon Everyone!
This is Pink-Colour.com.
Today I want to answer some of the most common questions we receive:
Q: How many hours can I wear circle lenses?
A: Just like regular contacts, they should not be worn for more than 8hrs.
Q: Can I wear circle lenses everyday?
A: Circle lenses unlike conventional (clear) lenses, were made for cosmetic purposes, although they can also correct vision. The coloured part will block oxygen and water supply to your eyes more than clear conventional lenses. So I would definitely not recommend wearing circle lenses everyday, but ~3 times a week should be fine.
Q: Should I get an eye examination before purchasing circle lenses?
A: Yes! Yes! Yes! You need to ask your optometrist for your prescription and it may or may not be different from your prescription on your eye glasses. Even if you do not need vision correct, you still need to have your base curve measured. You are suppose to be able to wear lenses within +/- 2mm from your base curve. We carry lenses with base curve of 8.4mm and 8.6mm to cover the base curve range of 8.2mm to 8.8mm.
That's it for now, and remember, if your eyes feel tired, just opt to wear glasses that day instead!
