🎃 Don't Let an Eye Infection be Your Scariest Halloween Fright! 🎃
Planning to complete your Halloween look with decorative contact lenses? Don’t let unsafe lenses haunt you long after 31st October! Using decorative lenses without a valid prescription can seriously harm your eyes. Here's why:
👁️ Avoid Dangerous Lenses
We recommend to only purchase decorative contact lenses from a licensed provider who requires a prescription. Lenses sold without one may not fit correctly, increasing your risk of:
Scratches on the outer layer of the eye (cornea)
Corneal ulcers (open sores) that can lead to infection and scarring
Permanent vision loss if left untreated
💡 Stay Safe with Proper Care
When fitted and cared for correctly, contact lenses are generally safe and convenient. Remember, though, they are medical devices and must be treated as such. Follow these tips:
Always have lenses fitted by a qualified healthcare professional.
Clean, wear, and store them according to professional guidance to minimise infection risks.
👻 Keep Halloween fun and fright-free by prioritising your eye health!
