Bold neon colours are making a comeback in fashion and makeup, so why not include them in your next fancy dress outfit? Neon contact lenses made for short-term wear are an inexpensive way to stand out and really make a statement. You can get them in the whole range of neon colours, from electric green and highlighter yellow to hot pinks and purples. No matter what your personal taste might be, there's a neon lens available to suit.
How Neon Lenses Work;
These type of contact lens are made of an opaque material that covers your natural iris completely. That means it's suitable for people with all natural eye colours, from blue, grey, to nearly black. The opacity of this kind of lens does mean that it could block your vision temporarily if you're suddenly exposed to very bright light while wearing it, however. This type of contact lens allows light to pass through a transparent area at the centre, which does not change size along with your pupil. Under most lighting conditions, however, opaque lenses don't cause any vision issues.
How Long Do Neon Lenses Last?
The lifespan of neon contact lenses varies according to the product and the manufacturer. Many costume lenses are made to last only a day or so. This kind of product requires no maintenance on your part; simply wear your contacts for an evening, then discard them. Other lenses are made for more regular use. For instance, neon yellow “Mad Hatter” lenses from Edit last for three months if you wear them every day, or as long as a year if you wear them occasionally and take care to maintain them. This wide range lets you pick the kind of lens that's right for you
