Because Lady GaGa is awesome, apparently "circle lenses" have become a major trend. These werei nspired because of this video:

YouTube - ‪Lady Gaga - Bad Romance‬‎

Circle lenses can damage your eyes sight among other things. It's also illegal, but I'm still thinking of getting some, just for fun.

On a side note asians are mostly who are selling them. Odd?

[Nomenclature]

Naahh, they've been all the rage in Japan and Korea for a LONG time. THAT's why it's mostly Asians who are selling them... and the fact that we don't have as much of a variety in our natural eye color as some other peeps do. D;

But yes, the whole point of the black ring is to define the eyes and make them look more doll-like. I think Acuvue even has a one-day line of circle lenses even though they are illegal in the states.

Honestly, most contacts will damage your eyes if they're the wrong fitting anyway. :|

I had a blue pair and a purple pair and a green pair (which I bought from the UK btw, but that takes so much longer to arrive). Tons of compliments on my eyes, but I stopped wearing them.

[Schadenfreude]

I used to have a black one but colored contacts aren't allowed in my school so I just switched to the colorless ones.
