Decorative Contact Lenses are Medical Devices

Did you know that these decorative contact lenses are actually medical devices? The U.S. Food and Drug Administration oversees their safety and effectiveness, just like regular contact lenses.

Just like regular contact lenses you should never buy contact lenses from a street vendor, a beauty supply store, flea market, novelty store or Halloween store—and you should always have a prescription.  We have some very cool lenses to accessorize your look for special occassions.   Give our office a call to speak with our staff and set up an appointment. 

Follow this link to learn more about the risk factors and FDA guidelines in dispensing and wearing decorative contact lenses.
