Finally I’m done with my clear contact lense, starting this month till December, I’m going blue… Hehehe… This is my first time trying out coloured contact lenses. I have two more colours, pure hazel and brown. These 3 boxes cost me RM100, buy 2 free 1. Good thing my both eyes have the same degree so I can buy it this way.
I had changed my contact lense brand many times and settled with Softlense38 for years. At the begining, I was using Seequence, then I tried Acuvue, next I went back to Seequence. Who knows… The price increased so I switched to Softlense38 until now. I’ve been using monthly disposal contact lense ever since the first time I’m introduced to contact lense. As for now, this is the first time I’m going to use 3-month disposal contact lense. For the next 9 months, I will be using colour lenses and every 3 months, my eye colour will change *LOL*
Softlense38 is only 14mm in diameter but Freshlook Colorblends is 14.5mm. Even though they’re only bigger by 0.5, they can really be a pain in the ass. They’re quite big! Took me quite long to get them into my eyes -.-” Not only that, they’re quite soft but a bit more thicker than the usual contact lenses that I used. Quite hard to explain, maybe it’s because of the size that made them a bit harder to retain the shape when on my finger tip or I should say my finger is small *LOL* Another thing is that, it’s quite hard to see whether you got it in correctly or not as there isn’t indication whether it’s inside out or not, have to be very careful. It even got lost inside my left eye yesterday after I insert it! Gosh… Scared the hell out of me, luckily after a few blink it shows itself, got stucked inside my upper lid.
I got the right side in faster than the left. Took it out and wore it back many times because it felt so odd! Due to the colour, you have to get used to it. Summore they are quite big in diameter, it’s a bit uncomfortable.
It took me longer to insert into the left eye. It just didn’t want to go in hahaha… Finally when it’s in, my vision at the corner was very blur even after blinkings and adjusting. I don’t know what’s wrong. The right side was blurred as first but after few blinks it’s OK just a bit uncomfortable because the size is bigger, need to get used to it. Then not long after that it’s OK.
I decided to let it be as I was thinking that it might need sometimes to adjust to my left eye. However, in less than 2 minutes, I couldn’t stand it anymore, I just had to take the left side’s out! I decided to switch sides(good thing my eyes have the same degree else there is no way I can do that -.-“) to see whether it’s my eye problem or one of the contact lenses was defect. I switched them and my right eye could adapt faster, no such problem with it. Then the left eye, the bluriness disappeared a bit slow but it’s not that long. Hmm… However, still both eyes felt a bit uncomfortable.
Few hours later, it’s not that bad anymore but it dried up quite quickly! Oh dear… I’m a bit regret that I bought 3 boxes -.-” I have to stick to them for the next 9 months and constantly rewetting my eyes(I guess…). Arggg… This is my fourth day using it, feeling very much OK already. The blurriness after the insertion didn’t last that long anymore but it really dried up fast. I don’t use them for more than 8 hours so far. The big diameter is really no fun hahaha… I’m using more time to insert them but removing them are very easy maybe due to its texture.
Left: Just my normal eyes…
Right: Damn! I freaked out after wearing it when I stared at myself in the mirror! Felt so fake and the eyes seemed to be no life and cold… Also scary…*LOL* All I see is the thin piece of plastic covering my real eyes. So… Don’t try to piss me off for the next 3 months, I will stare at you using that fake blue eyes of mine to make you feel BLUE… COLD… Then you might get a nightmare after that π I feel as if I’m getting ready for a halloween party -.-” It’s so not my colour… I guess it’s much more suitable for those with light eye colours than dark ones.
I don’t think I will go on using them after I’m done with them, I guess I will just switch back to my good old Softlense38. I don’t like the huge diameter and they dry up fast.
LOL… This experience with coloured contact lense is so much more dramatic than my first time using contact lense.
I wonder… Do Northern Virginia plastic surgeons perform eye colour changing surgery or not? Don’t think there is such thing in this world. Just my crazy thoughts that’s all. Who knows one day there’s such technology but I still prefer changing my eye colour with contact lense instead of going under the knife.
