Do sunglasses get darker in sunlight?


Sometimes when people wear sunglasses indoors I can see their eyes but when they wear them outdoors in bright sunlight, I can't see their eyes at all. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Or do sunglasses have something that makes them darken when exposed to sunlight? I know some glasses have lenses that react to UV light but I'm just wondering about sunglasses in general. Thanks

How do Bifocal lenses work? How can an eye have both myopia and hypermetropia?


According to what they taught us in school, when a person has an eye defect the image is formed either in front or at the back of the retina. How then can there be bifocal lenses? Doesn't it mean that the image is formed in front of the retina as well as at the back of it? Isn't it absurd?

Contact lenses and redness?


I just got contacts yesterday, and I literally had to spend 40 minutes trying to remove them. I probably poked my eye multiple times, which made my eye really red afterward. (Only my left eye is red; the other is fine because I was able to remove the right contact with much more ease.)

Over 12 hours have passed and my left eye is still red. It doesn't hurt, but it feels slightly uncomfortable. What should I do in my case? Would it be safe to wear contacts tomorrow?

Anyways, I would definitely like to find a way to remove contacts without relying on the "pinching method." I found this video on YouTube, and this girl makes it look incredibly easy:


Does her way actually work? I don't want to try myself yet since I'm waiting for the redness to go away.

Contact lens uncomfortable?


I went to the eye doctor and had my eyes professionally measured and everything.

I then ordered Freshlook Colorblends contacts which usually feel fine. However most recently when I opened a new pair, one of the contacts ALWAYS feels uncomfortable (as if something is underneath it) no matter how much I clean it or which eye I wear it on (my left and right eye are the same measurement/strength).

Not sure if its the individual contact or if it's something I'm doing wrong? The other contact, which is the same power and size, feels fine on both my right and left eye. It's only the other contact that feels weird no matter what I seem to do. This has happened once in the past with a different pair as well.

What could it be?

Would green contact lenses look good on brown eyes?



In this video the person has almost identical eye colour to mine. Does the green contact suit his eyes, in turn suiting my eye?

Thanks for answering.

Guys: Dyed hair and colored lenses?


Okay, so all my life I've wanted blue eyes along with sunny bright blonde hair, my hair is naturally a light brown and my eyes are a kinda medium brown. It's not that I'm trying to be fake or be someone I'm not, I just want to spice up my look. All my life my brothers have called me ugly and so plain and dull, I hate my hair color and eye color now. I dyed my hair a sandy blonde a few months back and all my friends said I looked much better as a blonde. And my cousin had put some of her blue contacts on me yesterday and told me I should have been born with blue eyes cause brown eyes aren't nearly as pretty as blue eyes on me. I promise I'm not trying to be fake, I just want to make myself look as pretty as I can, it's like wearing makeup in my opinion. Im not a different person, I just have different features. So do you think I should get colored contacts and get my hair dyed back to a gold blonde? Please tell me what you think of a girl who has contacts and dyed hair? I'm not a bad person, I'm actually a goody two shoes, my parents had told me I could get colored contacts and hair dye if I got straight eyes for entire semester, and I did. I had told my grandma about this a few days ago and she said I was being fake. That made me sorrowful, but it still didn't change my mind about the concept. Millions of people get their hair dyed and get colored contacts, so I don't see how I'm fake for doing it. Please, tell me what you think about the concept, is this being fake?

Why are my contacts making my eyes red and sting?


So I have been wearing contacts for 6 to 8 months now, so I am fairly new to contacts. Every time I use them I wash my hands really good, I put in new solution, and I make sure I use my eye drops regularly throughout the day. I haven't had a problem until just recently, and I don't even know if its my contacts or not.

I went to the Emergency a couple months ago after screaming to my mom that I couldn't open my eyes, my eyes were really red, as red as a tomato, and my eyes itched to a point where they hurt, it felt like I had thousands of little hairs in my eyes. I got to the emergency room and they told me I had Chemical Conjunctivitis. I have been sitting here thinking for the past few days what chemicals have I used differently? Have I tried anything new? I had nothing.

I went to the eye doctor and he told me not to wear my contacts for a couple weeks. A couple weeks went by, my eyes got much better, so I put my contacts back in after the eye doctors approval today. I made sure to dispose of my old contacts and put in new ones, I also washed the container to put my contacts in real good and put new solution. Now my eyes are red again, my eyes sting really bad and idk what to do.

I have soft lenses, the ones you wear for 2 weeks then dispose of them. I don't wear them while sleeping at all. I only wear them on an average of 6 hours every 4 to 5 days a week usually. I really don'y know what the problem can be. Am I allergic to the plastic or something?
Added (1). I always wash my hands before doing anything with my contacts, I make sure my solution is clean and I wash the thing to put my contacts in regularly. I am afraid I am going to go blind if I'm not doing something right.
Added (2). The eye doctor looked at my eyes and he told me under my eye lids they are rough, he said they are supposed to be smooth, but he didn't tell me much more. Does that differ from person to person? I don't know what that means.
