What's a safe, not too expensive online site for buying Lolita clothing?

I'm planning to be a porcelain doll for Halloween, and I decided that the Japanese Lolita clothing was a really good style of clothing for my costume. I've got everything that I need ordered (circle lens, fake lashes, etc.) but for some reason I can't find a good dress. I've been on at least 10 websites, and then went to see reviews about the site because I don't want to be scammed. Well, all of those turned out to be fake sites that copy pictures and give you crap clothes! I need to find a not too pricy, and not too showy dress before it's too late for me to order.please help! Thank you :)

For people with contact lenses: any tips on how to use them?

I just some contacts yesterday, it's really weird! I can kind of feel the bottom edges of them on my eyes… and everything is so clear it's a little disorienting, haha. I've been having some trouble taking them out too.
How long did it take you to get used to them? What kind of solution do you like best? Easiest way to remove them?
Thanks! :)

One of my pupils is huge!

So a little earlier I tried to put in my colored contact lenses but it hurt too much since I don't ever use them. Now the eye I put the contact in burns and the pupil is enormous compared to the other.It still dilates when I look into the light, but is this a cause for concern?

Eye contact lenses solution?

I've been using eye contact lenses since like 1 month.So I don't have a solution anymore, it's empty now I used it all. Today I bought a new one from a store. Now my old one says that it:
1. Cleans
2. Disinfects
3. Stores
4. Rinses
5. Wets
6. Removes protein

The new one I bought it only says Stores, rinses and wets.
Now does that make a big difference? Should I buy a new solution or the new one is enough and those others aren't necessary? Thanks in advance!

What's a minor case of Astigmatism?

Toric lenses are so freakn expensive and there's no way I'm wasting that much money on them!
I haven't seen the eye doctor in a long time but I'm pretty sure he said I had an astigmatism.

Thing is, how do I check if my astigasm is weak enough to allow me to wear normal contact lenses?

Electromagnetic Waves?

Can someone look over this and see what else i need to put

In your own words, explain how polarized sunglasses work. Describe the properties of electromagnetic waves and interactions that this technology targets.
They work by placing lenses tints in front of your eyes. The frequency light from Infrared, visual, and Ultraviolet coming from the sun will hit the lenses and they will act as a filter which will absorb certain amount of frequencies allowing others to pass through. They will block those light ways that travel perpendicular to the lenses surface and allow other light ways to pass.

Electromagnetic waves have a polarity, which means they move in primarily one plane (horizontal, vertical, right hand circular, etc). A polarized lens blocks the light from all but one pole.

Ive started putting contact solution in my eye before i put my contacts in, into the contact lenses when i put my contacts in and afterwards as well.

I do NOT wear my contacts in the pool, i always take them out before unless its gym class swimming with goggles
No I don't do drugs thank you very much.No drinking or smoking. This happens even if i DONT get chlorine in my eyes while swimming! But it only gets really bad around chlorine, which i'm hoping rules out an eye infection?

What if I want to use my Clear Care contact lenses earlier than 6 hours?

I am off the opinion that if I wanted to use my clear care contacts earlier than the mandated six hours, I could just use a regular contact lens cleaner, (Opti-Free) for instance, to rinse the Clear Care cleaner off and wear my contacts.Is this opinion correct?

Hey, stuff happens sometimes and in those instances I may want to use them in a shorter period than six hours. I generally don't even sleep for six hours at night. Clear Care actually recommends using another solution in case you want to clean them after taking them out, so why not use them earlier than the six hours to rid yourself of the Clear Care solution?

Just exploring my options here.

What the best protective eye wear whilst doing sports?

I`m wear glasses on a day to day.My eye score is I think -2 or something not sure I need to check but I love doing sports Handball, Volleyball, Football, Basketball you name it I love it. But I cant use my everyday glasses because they'll break at some point and always fall off so I need protective eye wear whilst being able to see as clearly as my everyday glasses. Also I don't want to wear contact lenses as that leaves my eyes unprotected. Lastly all the company's I find are based in America so I need a store most preferably Central London.

My new glasses are blurry and are making me dizzy?

I got an eye test for contact lenses back in March but I didn't find them comfortable so last week (first week of October) I ordered glasses from the same prescription.

Is it normal to almost faint?

I have recently started to see my optometrist about contact lenses. Today I had like a trail to see if I feel comfortable wearing them at first the man put them in my eye and took them out then put them in again and said ok go and see if you can get it out yourself. I was trying for about five minutes then I lost colour felt weak, blurry vision etc.etc. He stopped me before I fainted and all was well but, he said it was normal for people around my age (14) to feel odd and have "mini" faints because it's the first time they have really touched there eye in such way.

Now my question would be is it normal to 'nearly' faint around you're first time or was he just saying that to be kind.

Also I hadn't eaten all day so I was hungry while there if that can affect with anything.

Could a child born with infant cataract has a normal life?

I posted a couple of weeks ago about a young child who was born with infant cataract, which one had been removed and then, a few years later, lenses implanted.
At now 9 year old, his vision is not great and there is amblyopia.
If someone experience the same thing, could you please tell me if the person can read, watch TV, use intensively a computer and eventually and with glasses, when at age, can see enough to drive a car.
Will necessary his vision becomes worse with age or could stay the same, eventually improve a little? Is there any trick to help the brain to connect better, since I think this is part of the problem, not the eye itself?

Refund Policy: What if I haven't received the product?

Hey There,

I went to a local optometrist the other day for a routine eye exam (I wear contact lenses). During my examination the optometrist kept telling me how amazing Brand X contacts were and gave me a trial pair. Afterwards, we negotiated a price and I ordered 8 boxes (2 years worth) of contacts. He told me they would be in by next week and he would email me.

It's been two days since my appointment and I have found my eyes to be irritated regularly throughout the day. This didn't happen with my old contacts. I want to tell him to cancel my order until I've finished my trial period to ensure that these contacts are going to suit me well. The only problem is that as I left I noticed a "No refund" sign.

My question is: If I haven't accepted the product am I contractually obligated to forfeit my right to a refund?

I'm going to call them tomorrow I just thought I'd ask here for the time being while they're closed.

Thanks in advance for your advice!

Right eye is having trouble focusing?

I'm 18 years old, and I received my first pair of glasses two years ago. When the eye doctor examined my eyes, he said that my right eye has an astigmatism, and that my left eye is near-sighted. He also mentioned that my eyes are sensitive to light, and this is common for people with blonde or red hair.In both this first visit and the visit the year after, he had me read letters from a sheet of paper up close, to check on how well my eyes could focus. Both times, I could read them perfectly fine in both eyes. However, after my eyes were dilated, I recall going home and going on the computer for awhile. Sometime after that, I noticed that my right eye was starting to get a bit fuzzy with things up close. I at first thought that this had to do with the eye dilation and being on the computer afterwards (with the bright screen), since this happened just after that event, but all the people I told this to told me that they don't think that would cause it.

I've been worried about this, though. Both my eyes are near-sighted, but my astigmatism eye can see better from a distance than my regular near-sighted eye.So I found it very odd when my right eye started having trouble focusing on close objects. I'm supposed to be seeing the eye doctor next week because of this.

Other things to know, are that I have dry eyes from using the computer a lot over the course of a few years, eye makeup will often fall into my eyes, and it usually takes me awhile to get out, especially at the corners (where sleep will usually be), and this is why I try not to use it as often. Also, the people crafting my lenses can never get the left lens exactly right. I lost the first pair, and when they recrafted the lenses, the left lens seemed even more off than before. On my second appointment, my eyesight didn't change, which seems to be unusual because my doctor said that eyesight usually changes after wearing glasses for awhile for the first time.My glasses still work well regardless in both eyes, even though the left lens still isn't fully right. I've had three "eye burning" sensations since I first started wearing glasses. One time was when I was on the computer for awhile, and my left eye started stinging all of a sudden. I wasn't sure whether this came out of nowhere or was because of the acne medication I was using (I know that I'm sensitive to benzoyl peroxide, but I dab it onto acne when I have it bad, and it was bad at the time.) The other time was while I was reading with my glasses on by a lamp at night, and then it happened to my right eye for a bit. Again, I had on the benzoyl peroxide, so that may have been the cause, or the low cast of my eyes at the time had something to do with it. I'm still not sure, though.

I'm just wondering if anybody out there might know what would cause an eye with an astigmatism to start focusing oddly? Would computer use have anything to do with it? Or does this have something to do with an astigmatism? Or something else?

Anyone want to share? Why.?

Ok so you can get an amoeba eye infection if you swim underwater with contact lenses & it is highly recommended you don't go swimming with contacts lenses on without goggles on over them.So why don't they highly recommend that you not swim with your naked eyes open underwater too? Its the same chance you will get the amoeba parasite right? I don't get why they stress about not wearing contacts while swimming! I have worn them while swimming plenty of times.As for them washing out when I reach the surface. I have a trick for that so they dont fall out.It works every time.My contacts have never washed out or bothered me from swimming & other problems either. I have researched & researched about this. I know what experts & people from many walks of life say about wearing contact lenses while swimming, but I want to ask this question anyway & learn a little more from even more people.

Sharing your experience's, ideas, & opinions will help answer my question. Please be polite & share your knowledge with me. Thanks.

I know this may not be a science question per-say, but my question fits better here then any other category, plus I thought I would get some good answers if I placed it the science category anyway. Plus it is a science question in a way. Talking about amoeba's, water pressure physics of the eye, & so on. Just wanted to justify a little about why I put my question under the science category :)

Why do my contact lenses hurt? - 2

I wore contacts about 2 year ago for like a whole year and they did not bother me at all. But then for the summer I started to wear my glasses instead. I when to the eye doctor to get some new one's when school started, but when they came in they hurt like crazy. I thought it was just the brand they had given me, so i told the eye doctor and gave me some new ones in a diffrent brand. But they hurt worse than the other ones. I switch the brad of eye solution used but it wouldn't help.So i just did not wear them anymore. I thought i could have a astigmatism but the eye doctor never told me anything about it.
This year for halloween im going to be in a haunted house so i thought i would go get some crazy contact lense to add to the effect of the makeup. I tried them on and these hurt really bad too.
What could it be…
The eye doctor never said I had an astigmatism, or that i couldn't wear contact lenses.

Can I develop a lazy eye?

When I wear my glasses, my left eye sees well while the right eye has very blurry vision. Since that right eye is not used, will it become a lazy eye? Or will something else develop?

I do have hard contact lenses (for keretaconus patients), which gives them both pretty much the same vision, but I cannot wear them often cuz its not healthy.

One thing I try to do is wear a contact lens in ONLY my right eye, so I use it alone for a while. I dunno if this helps prevent anything from developing in that eye.

I thought it was just the brand they had given me, so i told the eye doctor and gave me some new ones in a diffrent brand. But they hurt worse than the other ones. I switch the brad of eye solution used but it wouldn't help.So i just did not wear them anymore. I thought i could have a astigmatism but the eye doctor never told me anything about it.
This year for halloween im going to be in a haunted house so i thought i would go get some crazy contact lense to add to the effect of the makeup. I tried them on and these hurt really bad too.
What could it be…
The eye doctor never said I had an astigmatism, or that i couldn't wear contact lenses.
I really want to wear these contacts for halloween.

One eye is red from contacts? HELP?

I've been wearing contacts for 2 months now. I have astigmitism lenses but I think I only have astigmitism in my left eye. After 6 hours of wearing contacts my right eye is REALLY red. The next day it's back to normal and the routine repeats. I opened a new pack of contacts and its still happening with my right eye. When I go a week without contacts my eye is fine. But when I wear contacts it gets red again.It does not itch, hurt.It's barley dry.

Why can't I see 20/20 even with contacts?

Well, I already know my vision is bad. I'm farsighted.My left eye is like 20/60 and my right is like 20/50.

Is it possible to get lens glasses with a very small sight adjustment on them?

I really just want to get reading glasses, or maybe even glasses to help me see things a bit more clearly. I do have a small sight problem, but really to be honest the only reason why I want lens glasses is for the looks, so are there any lens glasses out there that have very little to no adjustment at all, and when I go to the eye doctor, what should I tell him?

Here is an image of the glasses I want for looks, I know I can get these at my local glass store but my question is are there glasses with a very small adjustment and what should I tell my doctor?

Eyeglass Lens Prescription Correction?

I just got a new pair of lenses and I'm pretty sure my prescription is off. When I look directly through the center of the lenses its ever so slightly blurry, but when I look through the lenses near the bottom edge everything gets clearer.

Now does that mean my prescription is too strong or my prescription is too weak? I want to order a pair of glasses/lenses online and I don't want to pay more money to get my eyes checked again since my prescription is just a touch off.

Is my spherical correction off?
Is my cylindrical correction off?
Is my axis off?

I know it could be a combination of these, but my prescription is just a touch off so I only want to alter it one or two notches (-0.25 or +0.25) when I put my prescription in online.

So here is the story. I've been using eye contact lenses since like 1 month.In the whole 1 month, my eye contact lenses never annoyed me until today. They were always comfortable.

Now after 3 hours I came back home and I put the eye contact lens in the solution after like 3 hours. Can I re-use it tomorrow or I have to buy new ones? Thanks in advance!

Small dent in my eyeball? astigmatism & circle lenses?

I noticed my left eye had been becoming a bit blurry especially when i'm tired.i went to my eye doctor a few months ago & she told me i have slight astigmatism in my left eye while my right eye has 21 (guessing this is because my weaker eye has to depend on my right eye more). i knew there was something wrong with my eye since i was young and people would take photos of me and my left eye's pupil would look higher than the other, resulting in a slight cross-eyed look :(

something got into my eye the other day and as i was trying to get it out, i noticed the little dent in my eyeball on my left eye.while researching on astigmatism, i did read about some ppl saying how an eye with the condition is more "football" shaped while a normal one is "basketball shaped".is this something i should worry about.i find it a bit staggering that i've never noticed this til now (The dent in my eye).it's like a small grove that goes down then back up.i think this may be the cause of my weaker vision.what should i do about it? do you think this would affect me wearing circle lenses, which i plan on buying in the future? i know there are such things as toric lenses, but i can see perfectly, just worried that my eyeball shape would reject the lens.sorry if this was confusing! thanks for any thoughtful advice.

They kind of wander. Also my vision gets blurry, then not blurry.

Using contacts after being in expired contact solution?

For a costume i'll be doing soon, i bought some green costume contacts online.when i tried to put them in today, after soaking them in contact solution, they made my eyes extremely irritated, red, itchy, etc.i was really mad that i wasted so much money on them when i realized that my two bottles of solution were expired(one expired in january 2012 while the other one was from summer of 2011). now, could i use those same contacts if i promptly went out to buy more solution tomorrow, and soaked them in the new solution for a few hours? i'd hate to have to buy more contacts because of a mistake.

also, do you people(who are intelligent with contacts) believe my eyes could have been THAT irritated because of the solution? when i put these contacts in, my eyes were briiiight red, itchy all over, and all around uncomfortable.i'm not sure if they are the lenses itself, or that the fact that the solution is over a year expired.any advice and thoughts are welcomed.

Eye redness due to contact lense solution?

Before you ask, no I did not reuse my solution. I simply went to CVS pharmacy to get a new one, since my old one was used up- As I was looking for one I noticed how there was one huge box only for $6, but it wasn't one of those brand products it was a "sterile" contact lense solution FROM CVS. Amazingly surprised at the price I bought it -_-.

So I took off my contacts and left them in my new solution overnight.In the morning when I put them on, I felt the worst STING IN MY LIFE- This was the feeling as if something one put nail polish remover or plain alcohol in my eye.It was definitely the most pain I have ever felt in my whole life! I have been wearing contact lenses for two years now and I've never encountered a problem or infection-THANK GOD!

Afterwards I looked in the mirror and saw that my eyes were RED. Not bloodshot-More like someone had shot my eye and there was blood everywhere.Me, being the most paranoid person in the world, went online and googled what had happened to me- This is what I came up with… http://www.cvs.com/shop/product-detail/CVS-No-Rub-Disinfecting-Lens-Care-Solution?skuId=694689#productTabs-5 *read the comments* -- My question is how do you stop the redness ???- immediatly after the encounter I flushed my eyes with water but they are STILL red- I put eye drops- but what can I say, I'm desperate for help! Please… Help! D': -Rachael Thanks!

Contact Lenses Get Cloudy Very Quick?

I have been wearing Acuvue Oasys contact lenses with Hydraclear Plus for a few years now with no problems. But a few months ago I noticed my contacts were getting real cloudy. I thought they were just old so I got new ones. But they also became very cloudy within a day or two. I have tried just wearing my glasses for awhile to give my eyes a break, using different contact solution, eye drops, and bought a new contact lens holder. But they now get cloudy within just a few minutes of wearing them. Has anyone else had this problem or know anyway to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Do I have an astigmatism or what?

Sometimes when I'm writing, my eyes feel week, and they don't focus right. I'm not tired, my eyes just don't feel right. Sometimes I mix up letters and read words wrong, numbers and stuff like that. I can't count things that are close together, like how many spirals there are on a spring. I get mixed up and miss count. I do use glasses for far away, I had my latest eye doctors about a month ago. I need a less intense pair of lenses, some how my eyesight got better. Most of my family wears glasses, and my older sister has an astigmatism.

I went to the optician today who said I have dryness in the centre of my cornea. Because of this he said I should limit the amount I wear contact lenses to a maximum of 12 hours a day and no more than 5 days a week. I have had considerable discomfort recently with contacts and felt my tolerance was decreasing. He said I should also use eye drops regularly throughout the day. I have to go back in two months time.

Anyone knows if this is the normal way to adjust to new prescription glasses?

About 5 days ago I went back to change my right lens on my new pair of glasses because I noticed I was squinting while reading and when I closed my left eye I wasnt able to read out of my right one.So, the nice lady placed another small lens in front of my eye and asked me if that made me dizzy, i said no. With tha extra lens I could read smaller lines on the snellen chart and see better the things on my phone. A few days later i got my new glasses and my right eye lens was bumbed from +2.75 to +3.50.As soon as I put them on i felt nauseated. I ssumed ut was normal since my precription had changed. I worethem for afew days and got occasional cold sweats and nausea but i thought it was getting better. Last night while watching TV everything started spinning arund me, Iwent to sleep. I woke up in the middle of the night sweating and having vertigos: i almost vomited.So I managed to walk to the car and take my old pair of glasses and put them on. I read for a few minutes forcing myself to focus on the screen that felt like it was moving around and eventually it became better. I felt better. I went to sleep.
This morning I used my new glasses again and I started sweating right away. I took them off and after a few hours put them back on. Iwas fine for couple of hours then I found myself sweating and being nauseous. Now, as I am typing this I am wearing my old glasses.
I noticed I see better with my new glasses, slightly better that is, because that is my lazy eye. But now Iam wondering if this is a normal part of getting used tothem or not. I think it isn't because it is making me physically sick.
What do you think? Any similar experience? How did it go for you?
I am planningto see the optometrist in a couple of days because my schedule is pretty full. Should I try wearing the new glasses or should i wear the old ones until then?
Thank you all so much for taking the time to read this.

So I've been wearing contacts for about 2 months and I have had no problems until recently. Every time I try to put my contacts in, if I move my eyes i feel them and they are extremely uncomfortable. I don't understand why they're all of a sudden so irritating? I have Acuvue Oaysis, which are the very soft contacts.

Does artificial tear act as a temporary contact lens?

I wonder why is that every time, when I put artificial tears in my eyes
(to lubricate them since I don't blink that often, when I'm in front of a computer) I see much better, than before putting them.
My vision has degraded a little bit lately, mainly due to working on computer, studying, reading some books etc. A month or so ago I took a rest from all the electrical stuff, books and studies and it got much better, so I think, if I give them some relaxation and eye exercises they will return back to normal.
Sorry for digressing from my main question here, but I value my vision and will do my best to retain it and even improve it, so I would appreciate if any of you have any tips and/or exercises for vision improvement and back to the original question - does the fluid of the artificial (or natural) tear act as a temporary contact lens? It sure feels like it. After 10-15 minutes the effect subsides though

I have astigmatism.
My prescription is base curve 8.7; diameter 14.5.
Right: -2.25/1.25 axis 160
Left: -2.00/-0.75 axis 10

Here's the thing, halloween is fast approaching and I REALLY want red colored contacts. I did some research and have seen people do one of two things…
Either I order prescription contacts, and raise my Spherical Prescription to compensate for the astigmatic number.ie.right: -3.0 ; left -2.25
OR. i order non prescription contacts and layer them on top of my existing toric lenses.

either way, i know i wont be able to see quite clearly and it may be a bit uncomfortable.however .. which option is my best bet???
