Want bigger eyes and not just the color? Maybe you should try circle lenses, the newest trend in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. Almost everyone knows Japan is the fashion capital of the world with all the latest trends emerging from there. What we don't know is what the new trends are. After visiting Japan, and observing their culture, one of the newest trends seen everywhere on the streets are girls wearing circle contact lenses. This new fashion trend is currently being worn by approximately 40% of all teenage girls for cosmetic purposes.

You can tell when someone is wearing circle lenses by the size of their eyes, which is relatively bigger than if someone were to wear normal color lenses. The difference between circle lenses and normal color lenses is a dark ring of color outside the area of the iris of the eye to create the effect of a bigger iris. Normal color lenses do not have this color tint outside the iris, therefore do not have any effect on the size of the eye when worn.

Even though circle lenses are one of the most popular trends in Asia, it is very difficult to find circle lenses in North America. Circle lenses are still an emerging trend in North America and available at a few authorized retailers online. If you plan on ordering circle lenses online, you should avoid private sellers, as there are many that are importing fake circle lenses from China. The most popular brands to look for are Geo, Dueba and G&G (sorted in terms of popularity). Circle lenses are also much more affordable than normal color lenses. You can purchase a pair of circle lens with a yearly usage for only $35~50 at LensCircle.com. The fact is, no matter what your eye color, there will always be a circle lens designed for your specific eye type. However, circle lenses are not for everyone. If you just want a subtle color change in your eye, maybe you should just stick with normal color contact lenses. But, if you want bigger and more colorful eyes, maybe you might want to give circle lenses a try.
