    I wish freshlook would make colored toric ones again. I use to wear them for years and then they just stopped making them. It's so weird how not one brand has been able to come out with a variety of colored ones like they used to. It's been 5+ years or so. Oh well thanks for the review though.

      I have dark brown eyes, but I had FreshLook ColorBlends Green for like a decade. They looked natural. And when they stopped producing them, people freaked out when I started wearing clear lenses. They legitimately thought I had green eyes for a decade, they looked so natural.

    Personally I don't care much about not looking 100% natural. Lipstick usually isn't a natural look, same with most makeup. Pretty eye color- natural or not- is still pretty.

    Glad you went without the makeup & saved your eyes. Also, I really appreciate you getting close to the camera. It’s been SO tough finding an astigmatism colored lens approved in the U.S. and by my optometrist. Here’s hoping these get the go-ahead, I’d like to try them.

    I also used to be a FreshLook Toric consumer for years and loved them! I'm still so sad that they stopped making them! Why id they discontinue them and not replace with anything colored and toric? There must be so many of us out there! Can you do a Desio Toric colored lens review? They look so pretty but I'd love your opinion and to see what the colors look like on you! I had tried these ToriColors and I agree with everything you said about them in this video!

    to be honest, its soooo frustrating not being able to wear colored contacts bc i have an astigmatism. i currently wear desio toric lenses but they dry my eyes out like crazy. i have been looking for more "fake" looking contact lenses these days (since toric halloween lenses are virtually unheard of) for costumes/cosplay so i actually might give this brand a try lol

    I used WJ Durasoft Colors Toric lenses in baby blue for almost 30 years. They lasted about 1 year per pair for $250. They were very natural looking and extremely comfortable. I never had any vision or other problems with them, then one day I went to reorder and they were discontinued! The eye doctor then prescribed FreshLook Coorblends Torics. I used them for about 5 years and then they were discontinued, just like that with no options to replace them. I tried buying Desio lenses a few year ago. They were very expensive and extremely uncomfortable and not natural looking at all. I was really hoping that these ToriColors would be the answer, but it doesn't appear that they are. I wish that someone would bring back one of the previous lenses. There are many people interested in purchasing them.

  • @jamiehamilton675
    @jamiehamilton675 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Just a random question. Do you know what makes it so hard for an optometrist to correctly fit toric lenses? It seems like every time I see an optometrist I end up having to go back 2, 3, or 4 times after my initial exam, and every time I go back they say they got a different toric angle. This has happened at 4 different vision centers. I do have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Hypermobile Form and multiple comorbidities of this but they always say my astigmatism isn't that bad so I don't know if maybe the method used to determine the toric angle isn't very good or accurate, the optometrist doesn't know what they're doing, or my medical conditions affect this. Does everyone have to usually go back multiple times before they can order contacts or is it just me and would you have any guess as to why? Thank you for your time.
