A member asked:

Blurred ring around vision when wearing coloured contacts, should i be concerned?

Dr. Tim Conrad answered

Specializes in Ophthalmology

No: Some colored contact lenses are painted on the surface of the lens. This blocks the peripheral vision. If this bothers you, switch back to non-colored contact lenses.
