....contact lenses require prescription. At least to sell them legally, they do. o_O Someone actually sells them 'OTC' (of sorts) at the dealer's room?

Perhaps because of the irresponsibility with handling them? Not that doctor prescrip does much to stop it, but I recall my friend asking once if he could borrow one of my pairs of theatrical contacts. I asked him if he was crazy. I'm not a germ-a-phobe but sharing something that you wear in your eye and get your icky eye protein all over...ick. >_<

I actually bought 2 sets of contacts and the worked beautifully. As long as you keep things clean and sterile you can use them without worry of germs or disease. ^-^ when my friends get around o posting pictures I'll post some of me and my green eyes. Next year I'll have red eyes.

This site sells the same contact lenses as displayed in the booth.  I have the blue ones and the lady in the booth told me it was the same contacts they sell at the booth.  Hope this helps.

I think all contacts in general will fit your eye.  They didn't ask for the base curve measurements or diameter, but I don't think you need to worry about that unless your optometrist specifies so.  Some contacts do not even give you a choice of base curve or diameter measuresments (I'm guessing it is because they're mass produced and they are cheaper).  The site's pictures of the Immortal FX lenses seem to be tinted (as in in real life they are a very solid blue).

I have a picture of myself with the contacts if you'de like to see them.  They look a slightly different than the site's picture.
