Halloween is an opportunity to show your personality and experiment with your style. Sometimes a set of colored contact lenses is the perfect accessory.
These contact lenses, also called decorative or cosmetic lenses, are designed to change the appearance, not to correct vision.
While corrective lenses are clear, cosmetic lenses are usually opaque and designed to mask your natural eye color.

        However, they are not fully colored. Instead, the center of the lens is transparent and the outer part, covering the iris, is colored, effectively changing the color of the eye.
Despite the potential risks, both cosmetic and prescription contact lenses are safe to wear. You can protect your eye health and avoid most of these problems with proper home care practices.
Most contact lenses are hypoallergenic, but people may react to contact solutions or other proteins on the surface of the lenses. A reaction to contact lenses can cause the following symptoms:
Plastic can scratch the surface of the eye, causing blocked tear ducts, redness, or vision problems. Sometimes bacteria can get into these cuts and cause infections or sores called sores.
Unclean touching or improper handwashing can also lead to eye infections, which can lead to bacteria or chemicals getting into the eyes and causing irritation. Signs of an eye infection include:
In rare cases, color exposure can cause serious side effects such as vision loss or blindness. This may be a complication of an untreated infection or irritation.
As a rule, optometrists will recommend that you prescribe makeup lenses, even if they are just for fun. Since contactors are medical devices and placed directly in front of your eyes, they must be comfortable.
During the fitting, the doctor will align the contact points with your pupils so that you can see correctly without irritation. They will also teach you how to properly insert them and care for them.
In addition, doctors warn against buying non-adjustable lenses. While all lenses must be licensed in Canada, unlicensed products can still be found, especially on the Internet. Doctors say it can cause serious side effects because you don’t know what the item is actually made of.
You may have heard that tinted contact lenses are extremely dangerous for your eyes, but they are safe as long as you follow some basic rules.
Once fitted, lenses should only be purchased from an ophthalmologist, such as a licensed contact lens manufacturer, an ophthalmologist, or an ophthalmologist.
You will need to disinfect the contacts between each use. Start by washing your hands with soap and water, removing them from your eyes, and then rinsing with a sterile solution. Soak them overnight in a clean box of fresh contact solution.
If you have old Halloween contact lenses from yesteryear, check the expiration date or replacement cycle before wearing them. Contact deteriorates over time, so older lenses may not fit properly.
It is recommended to remove contact lenses before going to bed. Some types of contact lenses are durable, which means you can wear them for a long time, usually up to a week. However, it is better to remove them to avoid redness and irritation.
If you experience redness, swelling, pain, discharge, or vision problems, remove your contact lenses and see a doctor immediately to rule out an infection.
Colorful touchpoints will add dramatic flair to your Halloween costume or casual look. While there are potential risks, as long as you get a prescription from an optometrist and use it with care, you shouldn’t suffer any complications.

Plot: The Chinese Communist Party ended its biennial congress on Saturday (October 22) by ratifying constitutional amendments that cemented President Xi Jinping’s tight control over the party. The incident showed that the new central committee was missing two key officials who did not have close ties to the leader. And at an unusual moment in the closing ceremony, former Chinese President Hu Jintao, who was sitting next to Xi Jinping, was escorted from power. It is not clear why he was kicked out. Hu seems to be refusing to leave because the housekeeper took him. The video from the event, which is highly unusual given the careful management of the scene of such an event, was widely shared on Twitter but was not found on the heavily censored Chinese social media platform. The scene was also not included in the official media coverage of the ceremony, which occurred as reporters entered the lobby. Xi Jinping is ready to serve a third five-year term as party general secretary, breaking precedent and cementing his position as China’s most powerful ruler since Mao Zedong, the founding leader of the People’s Republic of China. At the end of the week-long congress, the new Central Committee of the Party consisted of 205 members. Voting was by show of hands in the huge Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Most of the trials this week are behind closed doors. The new Central Committee did not include outgoing Prime Minister Li Keqiang or Wang Yang, the former party secretary of Guangdong Province, who was seen as a potential replacement for the prime minister. Analysts say their omission suggests the powerful Politburo Standing Committee is likely overrun with people close to Mr. Xi. The new Central Committee of the Party will elect the next Politburo, usually the 25th, on Sunday (October 23), its new standing committee.
