Hallowe'en Contact Lenses

Trillian · 2009-10-19 15:05:38

Does anyone know where I can get halloween novelty contact lenses (prescription) preferably in Dublin City but online would do too. They'd put the finishing touches to an epic zombie costume.

Hard to get the prescription ones in any colour other than natural shades. Some opticians do carry a small line of them but they're rare, usually independent opticians as opposed to the chains. Think i remember them costing a small fortune though last time I looked into that.

You can get non-prescription from most costume shops and even Argos IIRC.
