If this catches on....... well, let's just hope it doesn't, shall we?

Guess the funky contacts aren't enough for some people :D

I would be afraid of the unknown long term effects

Anyone see the Simpson's episode set in the future where everyone is blind because they didn't know the long term effects of laser eye surgery? One of my favorites!

That's part of why I haven't done LASIK. I don't know what the effects are in 40 years.

Reminds me of those little worms that are known to nest in your eyes....(don't worry, only happens if you're in the Amazon or something)....just plain gross!

I still remember the good old days when jewelry caused oohs and ahs instead of eewwwwws!

"So far we have not seen any side effects or complications and we don't expect any in the future."

Notice that they didn't say "We guarantee no side effects or complications and are sure there will be no long term problems?

Nope, not going to play with my eye. Would love to have my eyeliner tatooed on, but nope, not around the eye, thank you.

Funky colored contacts were all the rage several years ago. Even gas stations were selling them until a crackdown because people were getting raging eye infections.

The last thing I want to do is draw attention to how red and tired my eyes look!
