"Wild Eyes" brand

Wild Eyes were the first really affordable FX contact lenses. As of 1/2001, they have 10 different designs.

Wild Eyes specifications, as of 1/2001:

material "soft"

diam. 14.2 mm

B.C. 8.8 mm

power range plano to -6.00D

manufacturer Wesley Jessen

price about $100/pair

For more information, visit their web site at http://www.wild-eyes.com.

I have a prescription pair of Wild Eyes in their Wildfire pattern, as seen in the Grinch pictures. They are a lot of fun! I heartily endorse them!

"Game Face" brand

I'm still looking for information on these lenses...

"Fun Lenses" brand

This line has roughly 22 designs, including one that glows bright green under black light. These are soft contacts that can be worn up to 8 hours per day. They are available with prescription strength, or plano for those who do not need corrective lenses.

According to http://www.lensquest.com, these are made in England by the same company that designed the Darth Maul lenses for Star Wars, The Phantom Menace.

"SFX Lenses" brand

This line has roughly 16 designs. These are soft contacts that can be worn up to 8 hours per day. These are perhaps the most expensive of the mass-produced FX lenses, costing $100 and up - per lens.

These lenses are made by (or for) LensQuest (http://www.lensquest.com). They are also available at http://www.amazinglenses.com.

"Crazy Eyes" brand

Crazy Eyes were the first competitors against Wild Eyes for cheap FX contact lenses.

I think that this brand has been bought out by another company and renamed "Crazy Lenses".
