1st pic is my eyes without contacts...
2nd pic is my eyes with Acuvue 2 Opaques in Sapphire Blue... I have red hair and freckles with a pretty fair complexion, so it most certainly is a noticable change... I think I will try the green next... ![]() Last edited by MuskokaMaryJane; 07-22-2009 at 08:37 AM.. Reason: made images attachments |

From what i can see they look great on you. May I suggest that you post more pics with better lighting though; maybe in sunlight. I take it that you are happy with the Acuvue 2 Colors considering you would like to get a 2nd pair. What is your opinion on them in terms of colour, confort, etc? I have tried other brands, i.e. Freshlook, Bausch & Lomb, Expressions, but wasn't really impressed with them. Below is pics of my eye colour, what colours do you think would suit me? Pic1 - natural color, indoor daylight Pic2 - natural color, outdoor daylight |

The blue looks good. I can't wait to see the green!

Hi there MuskokaMaryJane. It's been almost a year since you posted these lovely pictures of your fine self in your blue Acuvue 2 Opaque lenses. How about the green ones? Did you get the green ones?
|
|
|||
|
The blue lenses look good, but I think the green would go best with the red hair and freckles. Maybe when you get the green lenses you can show us your freckled face too, complete with a smile. What do you think?
|
|

|
I think you scared Mary Jane away, yournamehere.
|
|
|||
|
Oh, did I? It certainly seems that way. I didn't mean to.
Come back, Mary Jane. I promise I won't be so scary next time. |

I tried on the acuvue 2 in green and have pictures, if that helps. However, my natural eye color is brown...
Here they are with the green contacts... Attachment 15329 with flash... Attachment 15330 No one can tell I am wearing them unless I point it out to them. It looks really dark on brown eyes, barely makes them hazel. The only way you can really see them is in really bright light or if you use flash on a camera. And even then, they look very muddy, like a swamp. I feel like a lizard wearing them lol. Good thing they're just testers! What a shame, though...these opaques are not opaque at all... and the colors looked so nice in the container! Attachment 15331 Last edited by jellymelly14; 10-08-2011 at 10:25 AM.. |

Hi jellymelly14. Thanks for the pictures.
In the one where we can see your face, first let me say I like your expression. It's kind of funny. (I hope you meant it that way.) Secondly, since those are test contacts and they don't color your entire iris, you can see a bit of your natural color, and the contacts are very close to that color. So, yeah, if you're looking for a change, you might try a different color. Maybe a brighter green? Last edited by LENS101; 11-21-2010 at 10:48 AM.. |

haha yeah, I was trying to be funny. And my optician only had me test acuvues; I wanted to try Freshlook Gemstone green but I couldn't get them to stay in my eyes, the base curve was too big. Acuvue only has this green or an even darker hazel green. I was pretty disappointed, but oh well. I think I like blue better anyway. =)

If it makes you feel any better, I don't think you look like a lizard. |

Anyway, now that I'm done with my long ranting story...the blue ones will probably come in a week since that's how long it took the last ones to come in. I should probably have them sometime on Monday or later. =) |

I'm sorry LensCrafters gave you such a hard time. I hope you like the lenses you get after all that. If you want to get your contact lenses with less hassle (Hopefully no hassle.) then try our sponsor, Lens.com. I don't usually like to advertise, but since you've already had a bad experience, I thought maybe you were open for suggestions. Just click the big red rectangle up at the top of this page. You can't miss it. |

Well, maybe things will go better next time. You haven't given up on contact lenses yet, have you?
|
|

Nope! I got my sapphire blue contacts yesterday. I'll post pictures when I get the chance =)
|
|
|||

Ok I finally got around to getting pictures! Here they are, I'll post them here and on the sapphire blue thread. =)
The pupil hole is big, I know, so you can see my brown eyes. I don't really care though. Sapphire blue is a pretty cool color, they've grown on me. lol Last edited by jellymelly14; 10-08-2011 at 10:27 AM.. |

I actually got a compliment today! I was at work, and a customer came up to ask about a product, and she stopped in mid sentence, said she lost her train of thought because of my eyes, and how they looked really nice on me. Then she had her daughter come by to look at them too! lol. =)

Nice cropping job there, Nursenancy. You're right, too. The brown color is pretty well covered by these blue contacts.

P.S. I got another compliment on them, this time from a guy! So looks like both genders like the contacts lol =) |

Yeah, I like that face that jellymelly14 was making in that picture when she was biting her lip. It's like she's saying "What do you think? Do you like `em?"
|
|
|||
|
haha yep, aaaannnnddd I did NOT like them lol. Man, those acuvues were so disappointing. Still looking for the perfect light green contacts. =T
|
|
|||
|
That's too bad, jellymelly14. So you just didn't like the color? Those blue ones sure look good on you. Good luck on finding the green ones you want. I hope there will be more pictures in the future.
|
|
|||
|
Yeah, the blue ones are fine. I just didn't like the color of the green ones. In real life, they are so dark and muddy, most people could not even see the green. Oh well, we'll see how it goes...if I can afford anymore colored contacts I sure will try and post pictures =) haha.

So how are you MuskokaMaryJane. Have people been reacting to your new blue eyes lately? How about those green ones?
