What are Red Contacts
Red contacts are medical devices and are a powerful way to make a statement without uttering a single word. They typically feature a vibrant red iris and are left clear at the center for your pupils so you can see clearly.
The primary purpose is to change the appearance of your eyes similar to the way other colored contacts do. There are also full-eye sclera lenses like those worn by cosplayers pretending to bring zombie viruses.
These cosmetic contacts are an interesting way to wear red, only you're not thinking about a piece of red clothing.

Not only are red eye contacts bold eye-catching accessories, but they also create a dramatic (or devilish) look that will draw attention everywhere you go.
Red costume contacts can be worn in a lot of different ways although people favor them for Halloween as part of a devil or vampire costume and makeup. Others use them to dress up as a character from a movie or a book, a practice called cosplay. In fact, you don't need a special reason when you can sport red eyes anytime you wish.
