Are colored contact lenses bad for your eyes?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

They aren't any more dangerous for you eyes than regular contacts if they are fit correctly. I would strongly recommend being fit by an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist to make sure they are indeed fit correctly. In other words, don't buy them from some random place or online (unless your doctor gave you the prescription).

You should be aware that Colored lenses generally are less comfortable and do not provide as crisp vision as clear or handling tint lenses do. But as far as health goes, they are no less healthy than clear lenses.

Me, Im an optometrist.

They CAN be very bad , IF they don't fit you right.
