Last week I got the WildEyes zebra contact lenses to wear with my zebra-striped hair, etc at Further Confusion.

Today was day four of breaking in my eyes to wearing the lenses. We got some photos so y'all can see what they look like. The picture itself is pretty horrific as portraits go, but it gets the general idea across:

As you can see (if you know my ususal haircut) the flattop is getting taller. January 17 is the day I go in for the lift-and-stripe job with Belinda.

::sigh:: I've always wanted to get yellow ones to do Data, but never did. How much did these run you?

$99, direct from my optometrist. That's the same as via online sales, plus there was no shipping charge (my doctor carries the Wild Eyes lenses). They ordered them for me with my (non-) prescription and they were ready to pick up in a couple days.

You do have to have a prescription for any lenses these days, even if they contain no correction.

Has anyone where you work noticed them (assuming you've worn them to work)?

I had a co-worker at Oracle who would purposely wear obviously-not-hers contact lenses just to see if anyone noticed.

I haven't had to wear them at work... I'm off this week, which made it an ideal time to break in my eyes to having pieces of silicone hydrogel floating in them :-)

Oh, and I wore them for 10 hours yesterday, which included the drive back from Wedding. Nobody in the Starbucks or McDonalds seemed to notice...

Well I do have a current prescription. Hmmm...
