Can I wear brown contacts with blue eyes?
Absolutely, you can wear brown contacts over blue eyes to change or enhance your natural eye color. For a natural-looking change, you might consider options like Eyeling Dark Brown or Eyeling Light Brown. These colored lenses are specifically designed to provide a very natural effect, covering the blue with a rich brown hue. They are handcrafted in Sweden with unique no pupil hole tinting technology, ensuring they blend seamlessly with your natural eye color, giving the appearance that you were born with brown eyes. Remember to consult an eye care professional to get a prescription and ensure they fit correctly for safe and comfortable wear.
Are colored eye contacts safe?
Yes, colored contact lenses are safe when used correctly. It’s essential to adhere to all recommended care instructions, such as proper cleaning, disinfecting, and storing of the lenses, to minimize the risk of eye infections or irritation. Always purchase them from a reputable source to avoid unsafe products.

Are contact lenses safe for a 14 year old?
Yes, contact lenses are safe for 14-year-olds, provided they follow proper usage and hygiene practices. Teenagers must be diligent in washing and drying their hands before handling lenses and should be supervised by an adult during the initial period to ensure they adhere to proper lens care and handling techniques.
Is it OK to wear colored contacts everyday?
Yes, it is generally safe to wear colored contact lenses daily as long as you follow the recommended guidelines for wear and care. It's important to maintain strict hygiene by cleaning and storing them properly to prevent eye infections or irritation. Additionally, give your eyes regular breaks by wearing glasses instead for part of the day or week if you experience any discomfort. Always use high-quality lenses, like those from Eyeling, which are designed for both safety and comfort.
Can you cry with colored contacts on?
Yes, you can cry with colored contacts on. Tears naturally occur to lubricate and clean the eye, and wearing contact lenses, including colored ones, doesn't hinder this process. However, it's important to ensure that your contacts are well-fitted and comfortable. If you experience discomfort while crying with contacts, it could indicate that the lenses are not fitting correctly or that your eyes are reacting to them, in which case you should consult an eye care professional.
