Hi, I am currently researching about circle lenses. I heard they could make your eyes look bigger. I saw a website with a database of circle lenses for sale.. I have small eyes and I think It is nice to try this out. But I'm not so sure if they are safe and also if ordering online is safe? Anyone?

Hi,I'm glad you're discovering the world of circle lens. It's safe to buy circle lens online, as long as their authentic. Fake lenses sell for cheap, most circle lens range from $20-$30 or $40(anything above 40, to me is a rip off). Also, don't buy circle lens or cosmetic lenses from your local Chinatown or near your area. I have a lot of friends buying there and finding out their fake. Another thing is before you buy circle lens, you need to know your prescription. If you don't wear glasses and you have a perfect vision, you'll have to order you're lenses in Plano(-0.00). Although, I wouldn't recommend circle lens to somebody with perfect vision because you don't need them. For myself, I've had contact lens experience for over 3 years and I don't think circle lens are healthy for the human eye. To me, I only wear them because I have double eyelids. I don't like wearing them because they make my eyes look fake. Many of my friends are double-lids, mono lids and single lids so they do wear circle lens and it does enhance their eyes. If you need some help on finding reliable circle lens site, feel free to msg me.=)

I have been using eyeglasses before, but I stopped because I don't feel comfortable they seem to be always in my way. I also have unsymmetrical ears so when I use eyeglasses they really show, cause you will see the other eye outside the frame... (I know that's weird) I think circle lenses would be great for me. I think I have a 0.5 left eye and 0.75 right eye If my memory serves me right. But that was a long time ago and a lot of things may have changed already. It may have improved or gotten worst. I guess I really need a prescription. Thanks for the information.

I think you need to visit the optometrist and schedule a check-up. It's important to get a eye exam every 2 years, since your vision could change. I wore glasses for almost my life until 3 years ago I decided to wear contacts.. cause I found glasses annoying. Once you know your prescription, you can order your lens! :)

I am asian and Circle Lenses have been popularized because First of all It is an Asian Concept , this was specifically and originally were made for asian people cause most asian people had small eyes and circle lenses were the nearest and most cost effective way for people with chinky eyes like me to have bigger looking eyes. I have been A circle lens user for almost 2 years now ever since it came out and i love how much big of a change it does to my look . Circle Lenses are different from the ordinary contct lenses in a way it has what we call a limbo ring in the circumferential periphery of the ens which is not existent in the more commercialized lenses that you see in optic shops like freshlooks. So the effect is that it will make your eyes look rounder and bigger. Comfort wise they are pretty confortable depends if youre a first time lens user you might feel a bit unconfortable at fist yes it is ssafe to order online but you shouls know where to get them . Heres one site hat is very trusted and most bloggers get their cicrle lenses for reviews and stuff. I got mine here as well. www. Pinkyparadise.com
