I actually can't believe this is real. I'v wanted a pair of sclera lenses for a pretty long time, and nom they are mine! These amazing lenses was send to me by linsenfindershop.de (THANK YOU!!!) which is a German online store that sells a lot of different contact lenses. Sclera lenses, crazy lenses, UV lenses and some circle lenses. They have a lot if different styles to choose from and for a really good price. They send me three different pairs to review, so I'll make a own post for each pair. I decided to start off with the Black Sclera lenses that I got, since I almost couldn't wait! 

I definitely recommend you to watch a lot of youtube videos and read reviews before purchasing a pair of sclera lenses. You should also be used to wearing contact lenses, maybe even circle lenses. These are huge and it takes practice to put them in.

 ♥ Black Sclera ♥


♥ Prize: 79,90 EURO
♥ Power: Plano 0.00
♥ Diameter: 22mm
♥ Center thickness: 0.07mm
♥ Base curve: 11.00
♥ Water content: 45%
♥ Wearing time: 1 year


 This is the box all of the lenses came in. Since it was send from Germany, and I live in Norway, it took about a week or so to arrive. Which is pretty fast. So I can't complain about the shipping. Nothing in the package was hurt or damaged on the way, so everything was in perfect condition.


 I got three small bottles of lens solution, which was very nice of them to include! They also included a lens case to each pair. On the packaging of the lenses you can read all useful information about the product.

15mm compared to 22mm. 
I'v been wearing circle lenses for some years now, everything from 14mm - 17-mm, and I have no problem with putting them on. But these.. These was a challenge. I had to try several times and it was not a very comfortable process. But in the end I managed to get them in! I recommend you to don't have any make up ( especially not eye make up) on, because your eyes will water. I'm sure people find ways to but these on different, so I recommend you to watch youtube videos and find a way that feels best for you. But please, if you have been trying for a long time and your eyes are starting to look red and feel irritated, take a break. Let your eyes rest for a while before trying again.


Also, these lenses cover almost everything of your eye. So your eye can't breath very well while you are wearing them. So you shouldn't wear them for too long! They are perfect for photo shoots, but if you plan on wearing them to a convention you should definitely bring your lens case and solution with you so you can take them out after some hours. You don't want to hurt your eyesight. Also just remember normal contact lens hygiene, like washing your hands before you put them in, soak the lenses in new solution for some hours before wearing them for the first time, change the solution in the case regularly.





♥ My opinion ♥

These lenses are amazing for fx make up, halloween, just taking pictures, or other short events. I don't want to lie, so I have to say that they are not too comfortable. Especially not right after you've put them on. It gets better after some minutes tho. The hole for the pupil is pretty small, so you can experience having some sort of tunnel vision. It's really not a big deal, but I just thought I should tell you! You all know you are editing a picture and you can choose a effect called "vignette"? Yeah, it's kinda like that. But I personally didn't find it any more difficult to see though than normal lenses.

♥ Summary ♥

♥ Comfort: 3/5
♥ Effect: 4.5 /5
♥ Overall: 4/5

Overall I really recommend their store, linsenfindershop.de ! Great service and great products. I'll definitely remember to check them out when I need crazy lenses.
 I hope this was interesting or helpful, and don't hesitate to ask questions!
Stay tunes for the other two reviews. I'll finish them as fast as I can. (‘▽^人)

Those look so wild! I just recently saw a video of a guy putting these in. I don't know if I could do it! I am getting a pair of 15mm, the largest I've worn to date, and even they intimidate me a little bit!
