Choosing to wear contact lenses has often as much to do with aesthetics as vision. While some people argue that glasses feel uncomfortable on their faces or that the arms make their ears hurt, really what they are saying is that they think they look less attractive when they wear spectacles. This is probably not true, but we all want to feel good, so why not wear lenses instead?
The reason some consumers choose not to do so is that they think caring for their lenses is going to be a hassle. They have to use special solutions to clean them, and if they do not rinse them they can hurt their eyes. Permanent lenses can also be ruined with a single mistake. This is fine if you were about to need a new prescription, but until then you hope they will last. The other choice is to purchase disposable contacts regularly.
Apart from the practical reasons for wearing corrective lenses, clients are also buying them to go with costumes or just to change their appearance slightly for fun. Switch from blue eyes to hazel; green to gray. Change your eyes to go with your hair color or your outfit. Even if you don’t need a prescription, you can still wear cosmetic contact lenses. Customers can also order prescription items in different colors.
