Smile Can other people see your Rgp's on your eyes!?

Here is a question for us rgp lens wearers? I have brown eyes so the lenses blend in and cant be seen unless you extremely closeup.

If you have lighter colored eyes....are your rgp's visable? Has anyone ever noticed you have a "round" thing floating around on your eye?

Im just curious!?

I don't wear RGP lenses, but I'll put in my two cents anyway. RGP lenses are smaller than soft contact lenses. Since Boston XO2 lenses aren't colored (except for maybe a very pale visibility tint) they they're probably not visible, unless somebody looks really close and sees an edge.

Default Quite often

I have light eyes and have worn hard and RGP lenses forever. Over the years I have often had observers notice and comment on my wearing lenses. I've heard it all. "I tried them and couldn't stand them." "do those hurt?", "you wear those well.", "your eyes sparkle" "those look good on you" "do you wear colored lenses?" "oh my god they move !" Etc. Hard and rgp lenses are easy to see because they move with each blink and catch people's eye.

Hmm . . . I've never noticed that on anyone before. Maybe I need to look closer. Perhaps it's a good thing to have an incentive to look people in the eye . . .

I don't know about you, Columbia, but my eyes are drawn to that young lady's long red hair.
