Basic White Contact Lenses
Contact lenses come in a variety of colors and effects these days. These include basic white contact lenses. Courtesy of the fact that many of these lenses are now created for cosmetic purposes, with a power of 0.00, basic white contact lenses can be made available for all, not just those with poor eyesight.
One must wonder of course, how basic white contact lenses could affect poor vision, and the answer is that they couldn't of course.
However, at a party, the effect of pure white in one's eyes could be very striking, if not a little bit scary .....
In a dramatic sense, theatrical contact lenses are used to help portray specific characters, or idiosyncrasies that these characters may possess. If a character were blind, then having basic white contact lenses could have a significant effect on the portrayal of that character. Having said that, basic white contact lenses will have a 'pupil hole' which would show up as a black dot in the eye.
Without this hole, you wouldn't be able to see anything of course.
Taking this theme a bit further, it is possible to get other color lenses which give an 'all out' effect. By this I mean which are made of a solid color, with only the pupil hole showing. These solid color lenses are available in colors such as silver, black, red, yellow and violet. Again the effects of these types of lenses would be considered theatrical in nature, or perhaps used to add an effect for a night out..
How To Wear Contact Lenses In The Allergy Season

Colour Contact Lenses - Corrective, Therapeutic and Cosmetic
Contact lenses are classified as corrective, therapeutic, and cosmetic. For those who are short sighted, near sighted, or who have astigmatism (all refractive defects of the eye) corrective contact lenses are in order. In these cases, an eye patient will mostly likely be prescribed "spherical" lenses. Therapeutic contact lenses cure other problems that are non-refractive, like "dry eye," and some types of therapeutic lenses even deliver medicine to the eye.
Two types of cosmetic lenses are colour contact lenses and special effects contact lenses. While these lenses occasionally correct vision when needed (they are basically spherical lenses), they also can blur vision because of their design.
Colour contact lenses essentially change the appearance of the eye. Some people may require colour contact lenses for less superficial reasons (perhaps they have a physical deformity on their iris) while others may simply want to ditch their natural brown eye color for a more...

Astygmatism And Contact Lenses
A debate continues as to whether astygmatism and contact lenses are compatible bed fellows. For many years, it was unclear as to whether contact lenses of any sort could assist an astigmatism sufferer.
Astigmatism is a misshaping of the the cornea. A normal cornea is round, but in an astigmatism sufferer, the shape is more like an American football, or rugby ball. An astigmatic eye sees light focusing on two points in the back of your eye, rather than on just one in a normal eye. This is because an astigmatic cornea has a steeper and flatter curve due to the shape of the cornea.
This is called corneal astigmatism.
Sometimes, astigmatism is the result of an irregularly shaped lens, which is located behind the cornea. This is called lenticular astigmatism.
Either kind of astigmatism can usually be corrected with spectacles or contact lenses. In some case, refractive surgery can also help astigmatism sufferers.

Bifocal Contact Lenses for Presbyopia
Presbyopia is a vision condition in which they eyes are not able to focus clearly on near objects. It usually begins after the age of about forty when the lenses in the eye start reducing in flexibility. Presbyopia affects around 90 million adults in the USA alone and about one in four patients passing through an optometrist's door will suffer from it.
Symptoms of presbyopia include difficulty in reading, difficulty in seeing in low lighting conditions and, occasionally, headaches.
Traditionally these vision problems were addressed with the old-fashioned reading glasses. Or existing eyeglass wearers could opt for bifocal eyeglasses. However the use of modern contact lenses for use with presbyopia has some distinct advantages beyond their cosmetic appeal.
For example they can be well suited to other aspects of a wearer's lifestyle such as sporting activities, exercising or using a computer.
Recently, contact lenses for correcting presbyopia...
