Answers:
It is illegal in the U!.S!. to sell contacts without a prescription from an eye doctor even if they are just cosmetic!. You need to be fitted for the lenses, educated on how to care for them, and monitored while you wear them!. Buying them from a beauty store or a website, you have no idea if they are sterile or if they've been worn before or if they will fit!.

The only way to know how to properly insert, remove, and care for them is to have a doctor or optician show you how!. The only way to know how long they last is to find out from a doctor!. There is no way anyone on here could tell you that information without knowing what kind of lenses they are and examining them on your eyes!.

They cannot go to the back of your head!. The farthest they can get to is stuck under your eyelid!. Not knowing how to care for them, though, will lead to infections, damage to the lenses, and damage to your eyes!. Not being the right size will lead to the lenses sliding around or falling out or the lenses cutting into your eye!.

Without being monitored by a doctor, you may not even be aware of developing problems before it is too late!. Other problems that can arise include: giant papillary conjunctivitis, dry eye, corneal neovascularization, corneal ulcers and abrasions, etc!.

If you really want to wear colored lenses, I suggest you make an appointment with your optometrist and get some fitted and prescribed!. I do not recommend wearing the ones you bought!. Even if they happen to fit, there is no way anyone could know if they are new or used!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think you are legally allowed to purchase contacts at a beauty store!. The reason is people walk out with them and have no idea how to use them!. You can cause damage to your eye and easily get an infection because you haven't been taught how to insert, remove, and care for the lenses as well as your eyes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
