Halloween Contact Lenses without prescriptions

Halloween Contact Lenses come in both prescription and non-prescription varieties.  It's possible to buy Halloween contacts without a prescription if you live in the US but you should use caution whenever buying any type of contact lenses even those that don't correct vision.  All contact lenses are inserted in the eye and need to conform to a certain quality level as well as fit the shape and size of the contact lens wearer.  This same need is true of all cosmetic contact lenses including circle lenses and any type of cool color contacts.

Colored Contacts Without a Current Prescription

The colour or colored contact lenses market has been growing steadily since 2010 and has reached record high sales volume as of November 2011.  More and more contact lens makers are creating quality color contacts in a wide variety of vibrant colors and cool patterns.  Some colored contact lenses are cosmetic only and may be referred to as plano contacts because they don't correct vision.  These are considered non prescription colored contacts but still require a current prescription if you live in the US and are buying them from a US based retailer or on-line seller.  HOWEVER (see 2nd paragraph below)... This is because any and all types of contact lenses are considered medical devices by the US FDA and as such require a valid prescription and contact lens fitting by a certified eye-care provider.  There are also many variety of cosmetic contact lenses that also correct vision and come in the same powers and same prescription as your current clear contacts.  Acuvue Colours and FreshLook Color Contacts are among some of the most popular prescription color contact lenses sold today.

If you previously had a valid doctor's prescription that is expired you can order colored contact lenses without a current prescription from the UK and have shipped to any destination world wide including the US.  Likewise if you would like to order non prescription colored contacts online then Cosmetic Lenses UK is a great option.

Non prescription color or colored contacts are becoming increasingly popular.  They are available in a wide array of colors and patterns.  Technically these contacts should not be ordered online without a prescription even though many are sold that do not correct vision.  The main reason for this is that the size and shape of contacts can vary from one individual to the next and the only way to determine the proper values for diameter and base curve is to have a fitting by an optician.
