Clearly Contacts is a place I shop for glasses now as I feel the local optometrists are a rip off. I wear contacts most of the time so glasses are only for when I am home. There was a promotion earlier, not sure if it is still going on, where
Clearly Contacts was giving away a free pair of glasses for first time customers so I picked a pair. Shipping was about $18.00CAD and that was it....my glasses came in a few days with a case and some accessories. Very fast service and good quality! I do recommend shopping from them.
On another occasion, after I got my free glasses, I was having lunch with a friend and noticed that she's wearing circle lenses so I asked her where it was bought. It turns out it was bought on
Clearly Contacts! I didn't know they sold circle lenses so I did some research. The brand is called
Splash of Color 2 and there are various colours available. They are weekly disposable lenses and come with 6 pairs for $24.89CAD for a box. I picked up a box of Violet Venom and Grey Storm. It only took a few days to arrive and once I opened the package, they are indeed circle lenses. Looked at the box and it says they are made in South Korea. These lenses are quite comfortable and I am very happy they are weekly lenses. The big eyes effect are not as big as real circle lenses BUT they are definitely noticeable.

-Edit: December 15, 2012-I no longer have Grey Storm to take a photo. I am not very good with swatching and taking pictures of my eyes. This is the best I can do. The grey storm looks similar to Violet Venom but is a bit more obvious/fake looking. The Violet Venom is obvious/subtle.

They also have a more natural line called
Splash Illusion and I picked up the black one. They are daily disposable lenses and once I opened the box, I think they are comparable to the
Acuvue Defines. These daily ones are not as big as the
Acuvue Vivids so I will still buy the Vivids but this is a good and fast temporary replacement if you cant get the Acuvues.
