Thoughts on circle lenses?

Post Reply New Topic

What are y'all's thoughts on circle lenses? If you don't know, they're those big, round colored contacts that make you look like a doll. They're really popular in East Asia, specifically Korea and Japan.

Here are some pictures:



What do you all think of these? Cute or creepy? Has anyone else ever worn them and if so, what are your thoughts?

Here's me with some blue circle lenses I recently got. My eyes are naturally brown.

This is the kind of thing which teenagers find attractive or cool, but older people find it looks alien and definitely a creep factor.

In my opinion most people look best with their natural colors. I'm not just talking about the eye color but also about other things like hair, skin etc. So I really don't like that sort of thing. I don't think they look cute or creepy but they somehow put me off. Having said that, I have no problem with other people doing whatever they like as long as they don't cause harm/nuisance to others.

Not at all attractive.

Even though those in the Japanese 'Kawai' culture seem to utilize these, it seems that - more often than not - it's women in their 20s and 30s trying to put on the 'Lolita' look who use these most often.

Possibly to attract men who are attracted to young girls ... no?

The upshot is that they're reversible; many from that culture go all-out and get eye surgery 'to look more Western' when the end result is a human who looks like a goldfish
