Costume Contacts – Make Your Eyes a Real WOW
Want to transform yourself into a werewolf, zombie or alien?
Costume contact lenses can make the transformation a complete
success. Find out what is on offer and how to get lenses that
are safe and will make everybody’s head turn.
What costume contact lenses are on offer?
There are two brands of theatrical contact lenses that offer you
the best looking, high quality lenses – Crazy Lenses by Cooper
Vision and Wild Eyes by Ciba Vision. Both companies are major
manufacturers of all types of contact lens, including corrective
lenses, color contact lenses and theatrical lenses. So if you
buy either Wild Eyes or Crazy Lenses, you can be sure you are
paying for a high quality lens.
There are hundreds of costume lens styles available. Here are
some:
- Cat’s Eye – yellow, white, green or red, with a
vertical black pupil just like a real cat - White-out -
makes your eye white, good for a zombie effect - Black-out – makes your eye completely black
- Red Hot
- for red vampire eyes - Spirals – red, yellow and white,
create a crazy effect - Fire – bright yellow flames on a
red background, around your pupil - Bloodshot – red blood
vessels over white background, very scary

There are also many smaller companies and individual artists,
who offer different designs for costume contact lenses. You can
even get custom made lenses, with any design you like.
Costume contacts safety
You might have heard that Halloween contact lenses can damage
your eyes. You shouldn’t worry; though, because high quality
lenses are absolutely safe; only improper care of them can cause
problems. If you already wear contact lenses for vision
correction, care for costume lenses is absolutely the same as
for ordinary contacts.
If you are new to contact lenses, though, be sure to consult
your eye doctor before you order yourself a pair of costume
contacts. All contact lenses come with instructions on how to
care for them. Be sure to read and follow these instructions -
it isn’t at all difficult.
Here it is, in a nut shell:
- don’t wear your lenses for
longer than 8 hours and never sleep in them - only use
contact lens solution to store and disinfect your lenses, never
use tap water - wash your hands before handling your
contacts - never wear a lens that is torn
- take
your costume lenses off if they irritate your eyes - never give your lenses to other people
How
expensive are theatrical lenses?
A few years ago, costume contacts were a luxury item, costing
several hundred dollars – but not any more! These days, if you
order your theatrical contacts from a reputable online retailer,
you can get an exciting new look for as little as $30-60.
Mass produced costume lenses like Crazy Lenses or Wild Eyes are
the most affordable. Custom made, hand-painted and scleral
lenses are a bit more costly.
Where can I get costume contact lenses?
Leading up to Halloween, you have probably seen these colorful
boxes for sale everywhere – beauty salons, flea markets, even
gas stations. However, it is not a good idea to buy your
theatrical contact lenses from these places. Most of them sell
no-brand costume contacts, so you can’t know where they were
manufactured or from what materials. Remember, the surface of
your eye is very delicate, and using paints that are not
designed for contact lenses (as is the case with the majority of
lenses available on the streets) can damage your eyes.
There are two safe ways to get costume contacts. One is to visit
an eye doctor, get a prescription and order them through your
doctor’s office. Another option is to order your costume lenses
online from trusted contact lens retailers. This way, you can
get the best price. As with most online orders, your contacts
will usually arrive in about a week, so you should place your
order in advance.
Like the idea of costume contacts? They are great fun and, with
so many designs available, you can find a style to match your
costume perfectly.
