Change Your Eye Color Without Leaving Home

Ever wonder what you would look like with blue eyes? Or maybe brown, I always wanted to know what I looked like with brown eyes and used to envy the girls with their chocolate brown irises.

Accuvue2 Colors has come out with a great new website called iMakeover. I wear glasses and when I first decided to get contacts I ran into problems. When I went to an optician and asked about colored contacts they had no problem letting me try them on; however I was limited to 2 colors.

Not anymore, iMakeover lets you try up to 10 different eye colors from the comfort of your own home. Here are a few photos of what I look like with different colored eyes.

This one is me with my natural blue eyes.






From left to right me with Jade Green Eyes and Warm Honey. I really like the way the green looks on me (yes I tried the brown contacts and have since decided brown is not for me).







iMakeover is quick and easy. You can change your eye color in a few easy steps. The first step is to answer a simple questionnaire. This includes your gender, age, whether you need vision correction and if you’re interested in a free trial pair certificate. After you complete the quick questionnaire, you proceed to the next screen in which you upload a photo.

Some things to remember about your photo: it must be in jpg size, you must be forward facing and the size should be 600 x 800.

I had a bit of difficulty uploading my photo as it was too large. Quick way to fix this; open your photo with a program like Microsoft Office Picture Manager and click edit picture. Use the tool resize picture to make it usable. I used the small document size which is exactly 600 x 800. Don’t forget to use save as in order to save this new picture and be able to keep your original photo.

Now the fun with your eye color begins.

The next screen allows you to pick your eye colors. You drag the contacts onto your eyes and then all you have to do is adjust the lens size, position and eyelid fit. There is a checkbox to synchronize the left and right eyes but I found it easier to uncheck this box and do one eye at a time.

Once you complete your adjustments it’s off to the next screen to choose a border for your new picture.

What I really like about this site is after I’m done it gives me the option to either print my photo or download it. I chose to download the photo so I could print the photo at my convenience.

This is a great site for you to see how the different colors would look on you in the convenience of your own home. The site is easy to use and with a free trial certificate, it doesn’t get any better than this. Whether you need to correct your vision or just want to change your eyecolor, I would suggest your first stop be this iMakeOver.


It is important to remember though that the colors on your monitor might not be the exact way the contacts will look in person; however if your anything like me, having so many options available makes it difficult to narrow your choices. This website helps you do that. Another great feature is that I don’t need to download any programs onto my computer like some other sites request you to do.

Even if it’s just for fun or if your serious about getting contacts you should give this site a try.
