Those aren't illegal nor do they affect you insurance costs if you need them... not sure why it would be necessary to buy this through SR?

I haven't used them myself, but for theatrical and special effects there's [warning clearnet] http://www.fxeyes.com/   They seem to have everything.

Would there be a market for that here?
And do you mean special effects contacts or normal prescription ones?

I wear contacts and buy all mine online (both precription and sfx) - you can find some excellent online sites to buy them inexpensively and without prescription via google, same as for anything legit.

Just thought of something else ... you need to be pretty well-informed to buy contacts online because one of the most important factors is the Base Curvature (BC) of your eye.

The only way you would be able to find that out is to get checked out by an optometrist. 

There are other measurements as well - like diameter, etc., so it would not be a good idea to buy or sell this kind of thing without specialist knowledge.  I buy lenses online, but then again I know all my optical measurements.

If you buy contacts with the wrong BC, etc., you simply won't be able to wear them. 

See a professional instead.

I wouldn't recommend this. You don't want any sub-quality counterfeits entering the market.

Could you lace a pair of contacts with LSD??  That would be an interesting stealth package... :o
