Those Halloween contact lenses might look freaky as hell, but it turns out the accessory might be causing real damage to people’s eyes.

A warning has been issued against using decorative lenses as part of fancy dress costume this Halloween as they could cause blindness, eye scratches, infections and other eye problems.
One 16-year-old, Leah Carpenter, went partially blind in her right eye after damaging her cornea wearing zombie eye contact lenses last year.
