Circle Contact Lense Warning

I found out about the dangers of circle-shaped contact lenses on ABC News. You know that Lady Gaga "Bad Romance" video on Youtube, were Lady Gaga has the huge, cartoonish eyes? Part of it was done by circular contact lenses. But now, eye doctors are worried that circle-shaped contact lenses are bad for your eyes. The reasons why is because the can cause vision problems 24 hours after they are put on if you don't put them in correctly. One other reason why circle contact lenses are a danger is because if you put them in wrong, the can cut the eye, cause vision problems. Plus, most women and girls who get circle contact lenses don't have a perscription. And also, most brands of circle-shaped contact lenses aren't FDA approved, meaning they aren't very safe. If you have Yahoo as your homepage (Like me), there is a new article on it, too. So the non-circular contact lenses are better for you. Hope the helps!  smile

Mom's an optometrist. Would have heard by now. Circle-contacts are safe.

Re: Circle Contact Lense Warning

Are there any contacts that aren't circle-shaped?
