A few people here have mentioned "Freshlook" lenses. I wonder if they meant "Freshlook ColorBlends Toric" lenses? Find out more about those lenses here:
...

I can't speak for 321contacts, but I found your answer helpful.

One more quick thing. Do you think you can answer some questions without showing us your web address every time? I've noticed that...

LOL. "May I help--AAAAAAAGGHH!!!"

I completely agree. Make sure you see an eye doctor for a professional fitting when considering contact lenses.

It seems to me that when people see a website called "Lens 101," they think it's all about contact lenses, but there's a section here for eyeglasses that have lots of questions, but very few answers....

Have you tried reading some of the other posts? I'm sure it would help you to read some stories that have already been posted. If you want something to cover your brown eyes, you probably want to try...

I was looking for a picture of these glasses, and I found one on eBay. That got me to wondering. Would you bid on a pair of glasses online at a site like eBay? If so, you might get these glasses...

Is there a way to tell if the glasses you're looking at with the words "Laura Ashley" on them are true Laura Ashley glasses?

These are a pretty radical design. Do you think the kids in you life would wear something like this? Would they like them because they're different, or hate them because they're different?

You know what these lenses are called in Spanish? "El Lafont" glasses.

Say it out loud.

Pretty funny, eh?

Have you ever seen pink glasses for adults before? They're pink, but they still look pretty good though, don't they?

I can't find anything on line about Kasey Kahne glasses. Is it spelled correctly?

Yamamoto also designed the kimonos worn by David Bowie during his Ziggy Stardust tour. How's that for street cred?

What do you mean "Ziggy who?"

I hope you come back with some good news after your appointment with the specialist.

Right. Don't risk making it worse if it doesn't work.

I wasn't able to find any Romantico glasses in Blue Silver/Crystal, but I did find a picture of this guy:

So . . . what are the differences between one type of plastic and another?

Love that shirt, Gary. It's right out of 1974.

I'll bet that big furry oaf has quite an artistic side.

What if I don't want my big belly to flop out?

Yeah, and we know how cool Radar was. They'd be lost without him. Some theorize that his super powers arise from his glasses.

I think I'll make things a bit more interesting around here:

Somehow the idea of fixing a scratch with toothpaste sounds "safer."

Do eye doctors do that any more? Do they give their patients things like cleaner and lens cloths and a case?

That has been my experience as well.

That's not really an answer, is it, nakedyes?

The Federation recognizes the representative from the Vision Council.

Gamma prime formation has something to do with secondary phase precipitates, something something carbides through precipitation strengthening, blah blah blah.

Those glasses really work for her. She looks good.

I was just about to post a similar picture. Amazing.

I like how the frames are thin, but the temples are really thick. It's an interesting design.

I don't wear Altair glasses, but if I did, I'd take them off with both hands.

Stay focused, my friends.

Back off. I've got my Lens CPR right here.

Well . . . thanks for trying anyway, guys.

Yeah, it's not like they have dice on them or anything. Dice are cool.

As opposed the wipes drying out in a few seconds, right? Is that what the italics are for, RacerX?

Oh yeah. That's totally a crab.

You actually did the math, RacerX. I'm impressed. I'm so impressed that I'm not even going to check your math.

Thank you for such a detailed report. I think a lot of people are going to be helped by your sharing of your experience.

Thanks for the update. I'm glad things have gotten better for you.

I wouldn't be so cynical. Sure there are crooked eye doctors out there. No one would dispute that. However, eyes are precious. I don't have to tell you that. If there's a problem with my eyes that...

Believe it or not, the Internet has just the thing.

1. Don’t panic, because your contacts are still in your eye. Take a deep breath and clean your hands and face and dry them.
2. Use the mirror...

What's the difference between "silicone hydrogel" and "hydrogel"? Aren't they the same thing? It sounds to me like you're asking a question like "should I have a turkey sandwich or a sandwich?"

Yeah, I'd be concerned about warpage, too.

I like to come and look at the questions and see if I can answer any of them. I tend to start with the questions with the fewest answers. If someone has already gotten 12 answers to their question,...

I've read a lot of good things about Blink on this website.

I hope you'll tell us the result of that phone call.

Acuvue Oasys For Presbyopia and Air Optix Multifocal are made of different materials but they have similar water content. I think the Acuvue Oasys For Presbyopia are worth a try.

Thanks RejZor. Keep us posted on your test results.

Thanks for understanding, patresh. We'll let it go this time. ;) I hope you find a good pair of contact lenses that work for both eyes. Let us know if you find something good or if you need any more...

When posting on Lens 101 or any other forum, make sure you use these: ] ] ). Members put things in parentheses and brackets, but sometimes forget to close them (as in this example.

Let's keep...

Thanks for all that information, RejZor. I've learned a lot about contact lenses on Lens 101, but I've never read anything about those lubricants in MPS. That's interesting.

Are you in the United States, johnsorious? If so, I hope you had a good Independence Day. Whether you're in the US or not, knowing what country you're posting from will help us find you a good price....

I find it interesting that an eye doctor would come to this forum for contact lens recommendations. I hope they're able to help you here.

To my rather limited knowledge, if you want to find the...

I got confused for a second there. This is the Acuvue Oasys section and they're not RGP lenses. Then I noticed that your post is titled "naturalens." I looked them up on line and the page seemed to...

Have you got any contact information?

Thanks for giving us a nice close look at your lenses, hopesvava. They look really nice.

I hope that buying your lenses "stupidly cheap" wasn't a mistake. As Wookiee77 said earlier, cheap contact lenses that are poorly made are no bargain. Keep us posted and I hope you get rid of that...

Well said, Rhodes95. I agree.

Really? Can someone wear a two week lens for three months or was that just an exaggeration? Aren't you afraid people are going to read this and say "Sweet, luvbostonxo2's says I can save money by...

Do you think you can break that down for us? What's a "keratometry reading"? What's "wr"? When you said "topography of the corner" did you mean "cornea"?

Thanks for the backup. I'm sure Eagleye appreciates it.

Are you here to help answer questions or sell your stuff on Lens 101's website? We know about your store, so if you could stick to answering questions about sunglasses in general, then the Webmaster...

You're in Canton, Massachusetts, right? I'm in the Midwest and I'm afraid even a $20 certificate for me won't convince my friends to make that trip. I hope this gets some locals to your store, though.

So why not get yourself a pair? Are they too expensive?

Now when you say that the pupil holes are "blunt circles" you mean there's a very definite color boundary between the natural iris and the contact lens, right? If you want to get an idea of how...

Hi nosko. I'm glad you decided to join us.
Lens.com's slogan is "The exact same contact lenses prescribed by your doctor, delivered to you for less." If you're still not sure, you can call them...

That must really ruin your day when you vision is blocked like that. I bet it makes it impossible to drive.

Sure, Freshkon, Freshlook . . . it's easy to get confused. How about another visual aid?

I don't know why he would be squirting storage solution into the vial in a cleaning demo.

That's a good question. Does the colored part around those tiny pupil holes block your vision at all?

I think you may have a point there, Railfan. Especially since no one has refuted your statement yet.

Wow, when you scroll past that space shuttle picture it looks like it's lifting off.

Yup. That's what they say. I wonder how long such a person's vision would remain "bang on"? Days? Weeks? Longer?

Okay, cool. Thanks for that explanation, nicole420pm. How do you know so much about ordering customized contact lenses? Did you, like me, learn everything you know here on Lens 101?

Yeah, it kinda looks that way, doesn't it?

That's putting it perspective. For us American types it would be 0.021 ounces mixed with 110 pounds of person.

Just so you know I looked that up; I didn't calculate it on my fingers.

Oh, I'm sure they are, Mondas2.

She's wearing a British flag dress, but I wouldn't call her "weird." I'd have to get to know her first.

Say, Saturday night at Voilà le fromage?

I decided to try looking up "lazy eye" and Voilà! I found this:

Amblyopia Treatment

In some cases of refractive amblyopia, normal vision can be achieved simply by fully correcting the...

I'd say that was pretty good criteria, Railfan.

Hey, don't pick on Enzo. He or she might not come back. We want Enzo back.

Yeah. Homer was so stoned he didn't say anything.

So . . . who out there "must have" the latest Adrienne Vittadini sunglasses? Does it get any better than those 5057S sunglasses?

We haven't heard from Finbar in about nine months so far. I think things are settled now.

I guess the Internet is still far from perfect, Metsman.

All right, that's enough. :D

Thank you for your investigation, Slitheen. I can't seem to find a way to pronounce this word, though. Funny how often I comes to Lens 101 and find words or pictures that Google just can't help me...

Unfortunately, Otto was talking to Homer at the time.

Yeah, I look at those eyes and I'm almost tempted to back away.

Almost.

Yeah, I was just about to comment on how British that article sounded. The way they spell "anesthetic," and their use of "cotton wool."

What's the latest, Finbar? Are you still having comfort and vision problems with your Acuvue Oasys contact lenses?

I found a great picture in about ten seconds, but then for some reason this forum wouldn't grab it. I got some kind of error message.
I was getting frustrated looking for a second one, but in about...

You probably know the answer to your question by now.

So how long did it take to adjust to Air Optix progressive?

Hey, look, I'm quoting myself.

This will draw in a special crowd, if you're out there, people. Here's another mental image that comes to my mind when I hear "Apollo":

Thank you for saying so. :p

Good news. I found a website that said " . . . Maurice St. Michel [sunglasses] come with non-prescription lenses, but can be made into prescription glasses(with Rx...

How long did it take you to get used to wearing your new Berkshire Chase glasses? Did they work great right out of the box, or were things a little fuzzy for a while?

I don't know about you, but whenever I see the word "Apollo" in my mind's eye I see something like this:

When you're looking to buy some new frames for your glasses, what kinds of qualities do you look for? What's your favorites shape? Do you have a preference for metal or plastic glasses? Do you have a...

I searched some of my favorite glasses websites for these Alexis glasses I heard about, but I couldn't find them. Can someone tell me about them? Do they come in plastic and metal? Are they...

I've heard some glasses being advertised as having hypo-allergenic metal frames. I was wondering if anyone here has ever had an allergic reaction to their Adensco glasses? What type of reaction did...
