Does anyone know if costume contact lenses can cause any damage to your vision or not?

Question:

I've heard different answers to that question based on which which web site the person asked is representing. I'd like to hear from an optometrist, costume dealer, or someone who has had first hand experience with costume lenses.
-Thanks in advance,
Mesmer

Answers:
I've used prescription contact lenses for about 10 years and had no damage. I'm guessing that the costuming lenses are as equally crafted, since they are made from an optometrist.

I've known one person online who had some and had no ill effects with them. The actors in movies use them as well and still work other movies.

Just follow the information your dr. gives you.

Other Answers:
Yes, your vision can be damaged in many ways.

If you follow your optical professionals recommendations, and remove your lenses when you sense any burning, stinging, etc., you should not have problems.

Recently, however, a contact lens fluid was implicated in causing fungal eye infections.
