Anyone know any good sites that have special effect contact lenses. I'm only finding 1 or 2 that actually sell anything when I search

The first one is less expensive than most special effects lenses, but the second one carries those "Riddick" Pitch Black style mirrored lenses, and I have yet to see anyone but that company sell them.

Woo, i found the perfect one for me here
Although, i'd need it to come with a prescription, i already have lenses that make me see, so i wouldn't be able to see with these ones.

Just be warned about complications from wearing contact lenses. You don't want to get conjunctivitis or neovascularization etc. If you're lucky not to need them to see like some of us need them for, you might be better off not using them.

Please note, you are not able to see through these lenses.
You'd kinda think that would be a fatal design flaw in a contact "lense" wouldn't you?

If you clean them and keep them soaked in contact lense solution overnight you have nothing to worry about. Those things only occur if you don't clean them. Basic hygene.

Yes I agree basic hygene should prevent conjunctivitis. But as for neovascularization, one of the causes of this is from wearing contact lenses for too long, starving the eye of oxygen and thus causing more blood vessels to grow on the cornea. Granted it probably takes years of overuse to cause a problem though.
