    Pretty sure they had them 1968. :D

    Colored "soft" contacts were all the rage in the mid-80's as "new" technology in eye wear.

    I have a friend with Hazel eyes, and he's always getting compliments and/or laid because of it.
    Then again that's his natural eye color, so idk if you would get the same result ;)

    What's next are you going to frost your hair while your at it? Calf implants perhaps? I really hope your 16 or something and this is just a phase.

    Maybe true but if it doesnt lead to getting laid, why do it really?

    If its to "enhance your look", but really deep down its to enhance your look...kinda homo

    If its to "enhance your look", but really deep down you hope it draws in some poon...you're just being acceptably eccentric

    i wouldn't personally do it but i'd like to see an experiment where someone sees how many numbers they could get at one place with normal eye color and then another place with the colored contacts. it wouldn't give perfect results but i'm sure you could tell with with which you were getting better responses.

    i'd hate for someone to date me because my eyes are blue, but if it helps you get laid i guess it's worth a shot. :)

    God, they were horrible, when I look back at it. Hard plastic that had no flex at all. They ended up flattening my corneas over several years, although my corneas got their shape back, eventually. I could see 20/10 with them, however. Extremely sharp focus with those puppies.

    Wow. I have a 20/15 in my soft ones... that amazes people all the time when I read small print across a room...

    My aunt had some of those hard ones back in the early 70's. She hated them.

    Didn't they have glass ones too in the 50's? I remember old movies using the "I dropped my contact" gag...

    since im asian everyone knows i wear contacts because asians dont have blue eyes....the only bad things some of my female friends say is that i look like a mutant and stuff like that. however most girls say it looks nice so im not worried. im just experimenting with my looks and all. im probably gonna start wearing glasses for the schoolboy look ;)

    I don't recall if they were glass, but contacts were around back then. Very expensive and not too many people had them. I got mine in 1965 and I didn't know anyone else with them at the time (what can I say? I lived in Southeast Houston! ;) ). They were fairly easy to break. I broke a few cleaning them. When rubbing them between my fingers with cleaning solution, sometimes they were caught between them awkwardly and just snapped clean in half. Bummer!

    Over over over thinking about something just to attract chicks never gets you laid.

    I would only go for it if you personally want to for your own self-confidence. Be ready to take positive/negative comments on it, and still with the contacts for a while if you do get them. If you get them and the response from chicks is mostly bad, taking them off right away will make you look like a pu**y.
