You don’t always need to have a prescription to use eye contacts. More and more people are choosing to wear contact lenses without prescription, and now there is a huge selection of non-prescription colored contacts available on the market.

Colored contacts are often used in the entertainment industry to give eyes an unusual quality (for example in horror movies), or to enhance eyes and make them more appealing on the screen.  Read more...
