EOS E202 (Violet) Contact Lens: Review

EOS E202 or the Japanese Big Eyes Love Series comes in five colors, if I'm not mistaken. Available colors are brown, grey, green, blue and violet. In this post, I will be reviewing Love Violet in particular.

 
here is what love violet looks like

Lens Details:
Power Grade: 0.0 only
Base Curve: 8.6
Diameter: 14.0mm
Water Content: 42%
Life Span: One Year

Now, I'm not an expert when it comes to contact lens but I have tried 3 lenses from JBE collection and 2 lenses from GEO. I can only tell you about what I know of these products. So I will be rating in terms of color, comfort, vision and enlarging effect:

COLOR: 3/5
COMFORT: 4/5
VISION: 4/5
ENLARGING EFFECT: 5/5
OVERALL: 4/5

More details as to:

COLOR: I gave it a 3/5 because I when I purchase violet lenses, of course, I expect to have violet eyes when I wear them. People don't actually notice it's purple unless they stand really really close to me. They look darker and it looks almost black at some point. I have brown eyes so maybe that's a factor on why it looks so dark on my eyes. However, I learned to like it since I like natural looking lenses more than those bright lenses that make you look like you're out of this world.

COMFORT: For comfort, I give it a 4/5 mainly because it's pretty much wearable. If you're the type of person who wears contact lenses everyday, I'm pretty sure this would come as an ordinary feeling with you so most probably, you'd give this a perfect score. As I don't wear lenses everyday, I do actually feel that they're in my eyes. It dries out in a few hours so I bring with me eye drops. I can wear this at around 6 hours (with occasional eye drops) without making my eyes look red.

VISION: Do note that I have myopia (both) and astigmatism (right eye only) but I wear lenses that doesn't have grade. But even if I wanted to buy one with grade, you can't cause love violet only comes in power grade 0.0. Good thing I only have really really low eye grades. I have 25 on my left (myopia) and 50 (myopia + astigmatism) on my right. So I go about wearing lenses with no grade. Anyway, as per vision, it does make things a little bit blurry at times but nothing too bad that causes bad perception. Do note that in sudden humid change, you will actually see sudden blurring (uncomfortable) but nothing that a few blinks can't overcome.

ENLARGING EFFECT: It has a pretty thick dark violet ring outside that makes your eyes look big even with only 14.0 diameter. I like the fact that the ring is also in violet shade rather than black which, sometimes, overpower the color of the lens itself. I really love the effect when I line my upper lash line and use this.

I bought this lens from THE PINKSHOPPE.
I dropped by their multiply account but I do know that they already have their website at http://www.thepinkshoppe.com/. If I'm not mistaken, they ship both locally and internationally and they have a lot of mode of payments to choose from. I bought ALL my lenses from them because they are so accomodating and they offer a lot of good items aside from GEO and JBE lenses. They also have promos from time to time too! :)
