Okay well I'm 13/f and I want to get the kind of contact lenses that can change my eye colour and all that stuff.
1.How much would they be ?
2.Am I old enough to use them ?
3.Are there any long/short term effects to wearing them ?
Well, I'm 15 and I wear contacts lenses and let me tell you, I'm quite madly in love with them. And it depends on where you live and who your eye doctor is and how much he charges for the price ^^
2. ^^ Yes, you are old enough XD but it depends with some people with age...I got mine when I was 11 or 12...I think
3. Not really...that I know of...I know that if you where contacts I think your pupil changes shape...but that I'm not quite sure of...anyway, at first, you might see that you might get a bit sick (like stomache) because you are used to glasses and what not. And you would need to not sleep in them that much, unless you get the contacts that you can sleep in...
Which reminds me I need to take my right contact out...XD That was random

If you can take care of your things, it's a good sign that wearing contact lenses would be appropriate for your age. With that said, they tend to get expensive. I am not sure where you are, but I am in Oklahoma. Here was what I was priced not to long ago for my contacts. For disposable contacts, they come 6 pair in a box, you have to purchase 2 boxes, one for each eye, lasts 3 months, would cost me 80.00, which would total around 320.00 a year. Now, they have a yearly contact, but problem is, they can tear, or get lost and it cost 150.00. So in the long run, the yearly contact lens is cheaper, but you would have to pay 75.00, just to replace one if something were to happen. I would just go and talk to your optometrist about the right option for you. Good Luck!! [ AngelofMercy's advice column | Ask AngelofMercy A Question ]
