Contact Lens Review Geolica Lady Green GS-A13
Review: Geolica Lady contact lenses in green, purchased from Solution-Lens.com
I am going to be reviewing Geolica Lady color contact lenses in green. These lenses were purchased from Solution-Lens.com.
Long have I been searching for the perfect colored contact lens that covers my dark brown eyes. The main features I am seeking are vibrant color and natural look. I have tried a couple of different sites in the past, but I have to say my experience with Solution-Lens was by far the best.
Solution Lens 10/10
One of the reasons I chose Solution-Lens.com is because their website posts pictures of actual customers wearing the lenses advertised. I found this very helpful as most sites just feature a picture of a person with colored lenses photoshopped (badly) onto their light blue eyes.
I highly recommend this site; it was easy to navigate and the entire transaction was very quick and professional. Most of the lenses on this site (including the Geolica Lady) are only $20 (per pair, and including shipping!), and you get the third pair free. This is the most economical deal I have found online for circle lenses.
I ordered two pairs of lenses and received a third pair for free. Solution-Lens was also kind enough to send me a cute pink pen and a case for each pair of lenses.
My package arrived in just 10 days- less than the expected two weeks.
The vials were very carefully wrapped and arrived in perfect condition.
The Geolica Lady series is a new line from Geo and it is specifically designed for people with darker irises (like mine!). The colors are vibrant, and these lenses do not have a thick black limbal ring as many other circle lenses do.
Color 8/10
The color shows up well in most light, but it shows up as a very dark green, so it is not supremely obvious. I was really hoping for something a bit lighter. It shows a vibrant yellow green in flash photography and a dark forest green in natural/ indoor light. This is a true true green, which is not typically found in natural eye colors. I was really hoping it would be more of a jade green. Overall, I would rate the color 8/10.
Design 7/10
The design is unique and incorporates three different colors: Green, black, and a yellowish inner starburst. The starburst makes the color pop, however I feel that the pupil hole is a bit too big, and the starburst a bit too bright, so the color does not blend seamlessly with the natural eye color. This is a shame because the contacts would look fairly natural up close if not for the wide, bright starburst. The green and black pigments form a geological looking pattern around the outside of the pupil, with empty spaces through which the natural eye color shows. I would rate the design 7/10
Enlargement 8/10
According to the label on the vial for these contacts, the diameter is supposed to be 14.2, however I feel that these look a bit bigger. They do seem to have a nice enlarging effect my eyes, even without the black ring. Enlargement was not one of the features I sought when purchasing these lenses, but nonetheless, I rate the enlarging effect 8/10
Comfort 7/10
These lenses were fairly comfortable once I got used to wearing them. I am fairly new to contact lenses, and it takes me about ten minutes to adjust to having these in my eyes. Most lenses take about 5 minutes for me to adjust to. That being said, once in I was able to wear them comfortably for a good 6 hours, no drops needed. I would rate the comfort 7/10.
Overall Satisfaction 7/10
On the whole, I have been very pleased with these lenses. I get lots of compliments, and I am told that green eyes suit me. My overall rating of these Geolica Lady green lenses is 7/10.
Just to RECAP:
Color: a little too dark and too green- 8/10
Design: nice, but pupil hole is too obvious- 7/10
Enlargement: not important to me, but- 8/10
Comfort: takes some getting used to- 7/10

Dealing with Solution-Lens: a perfect 10/10
