Costume Contact Lenses

We are often asked about costume contact lenses. These “Halloween” or “Dragon Con” lenses are very different than the mainstream cosmetic lenses that enhance eye color. Color enhancing lenses are made by the major domestic manufacturers including Johnson & Johnson and Alcon. None of the top manufactures make costume lenses. Many of these lenses come from unregulated sources overseas. The FDA has issued a warning about an influx of “counterfeit, illegal and unapproved contact lenses” including some with lead based materials! It is our strong opinion that costume contact lenses are not worth the risk!
