  1. Apparently prescripton lenses last abt 1 - 2 years. Cost could vary from optometrist, contact lens brand and strength of eyesight. Typical lenses cost abt 100 - 175 dollars, where as a stronger requirement could go 200 dollars ++.. but if u go for cosmetic lenses or temporary lenses, which you have termed 'fake lenses', would most likely cost you less than 100-125 dollars depending on your country,colour of lens and Duration of contact lens. They would last 3 - 6 months. Hope this helps.


  2. I got the kind you wear for a short time but I wore them longer and they last one year if you be careful.. I got 6  pair for like under 100 bucks...so it works I kept them until they tare then went to the next pair.

  3. It all depends what kind you get.  There are some you change everyday - throw them away and start with new ones the next day.  There are some you can put in and leave for weeks at a time.  It all depends on your vision and what type you want.  I have astigmatism (curved eyeball) and I just ordered a years supply from 1800contacts.com.  They cost me about $200 after a mail in rebate.  I believe one set will last me about 2 weeks.  And if you take good care of them and clean them pretty regularly, most people can make their contacts last much longer than they're supposed to.

  4. Well, I've worn the same pair of contacts for the past three years. They are the gas permeable kind (hard), not the soft kind. I honestly think you can wear them for a loooong time if you take good care of them and as long as your vision doesn't change. I can't recall what I paid, but I know it was over a 125 bucks.

    What on earth are "fake contacts"? Just the kind that change your eye color?
