Can I get contacts with UV protection?!


Question: I was wondering if there were contacts (especially color ones like blackout) I could get that have UV protection. My eyes are really sensitive to light (gives me severe migraines). I hate wearing glasses and contacts are easier but I still have to end up wearing glasses if it's sunny so it doesn't give me much help. Are there contact lenses with UV protection or something I can buy? Or perhaps like ones you can see in different colors in (like it turns your vision to blue) because I have problems with shadows in the light and I've worn colored lenses before, makes everything a lot easier to see. Please post. Thanks.

There are a few brands that have UV protection built in, such as Frequency 58 , and the Acuvue's also do.

The UV filter isn't going to help with brightness tho, it doesn't block out light , just invisible UV rays. You still need a sunglass when you are outside.

I don't think there are any colored lenses that have UV filters.

All the colored lenses have a clear center anyway, so with blue lenses, you don't see blue when looking through them.

There is no such thing as sunglass contacts, which is kind of what you are looking for.
