Going to the eye doctor

 

I have finally bitten the bullet and am going to ask the optometrist for color contacts. The part that stinks is I have an astigmatism and am stuck with only one brand (Freshlook Colorblends. I dont know which color to try since I have black hair and a medium brown eyes. I wish I had more options since their are only four colors I can try with an astigmatism (which is blue, green, grey, and a lighter brown shade. Does anybody know of any other brands of color contacts for an astigmatism? Their are also so little images online with people wearing color contacts, could anybody post a picture with these Colorblends on, since I not sure what would look good.

Upload of pictures 

P.S. when I get my color contacts I will try to upload them to the site to see what you guys think (will be after This month), but could please recommend or post pictures of your contact on your eyes

Grr they were out of trial pairs at the eye doctor so am going to have to wait until they get new once in. When they do (and if I get to take them home)I will post the pics online.
Thanks

Polaroid a mi contacts yea!!!

sorry about the shine 

sorry about the shiny effect (due to the flash) that is on the picture, but the color of the eyes are really close (more natural looking in real life). On the left is blue and on the right green. These two looked the most natural on me since the gray and the orange (I think it is called honey or something like that) made me look creepy (would be great for Halloween). These blend into the eyes really well and are only noticeable about two inches away in normal light and about a foot or probably less in sun light. I chose blue, but could have gone either way. What do you guys think and do you have any experiences with these,since the prescription lenses haven't come in yet.
