Answers: Dude! You need to get a prescription for contact lenses! This is even when they are just for changing eye color (no correction involved). This is the law. This is because they need to see if your eyes are acceptible for contacts, determine the cornea diameter, base curve, and perhaps other parameters so you know which size will fit before ordering. This is to keep people from screwing up their eyes.
They are asking you if you have a prescription. If you do, put that in. If you don't use or wear glasses for correctional vision then you would find out what to put for just basic contacts with no prescription. If you have contacts already - your prescription is already on the side of the box.
Contact lenses that do not have a power associated with them are called Plano lenses and their respective power is 0.00. If you would like to wear colored contact lenses and you do not have any vision problems you still need to go see an eye care provider and get fitted. There are more parameters then just the power of the lense that effects the fitting such as the curvature of the eyes. There are many different size eye balls and some have a larger curve and diameter than others. Contact lenses are considered medical devices and they need to be prescribed.
Here is a link to the different colored lenses out there. Click on the desired brand and use the interactive eye color toolbox to see the effect that the different types of colors have on your eye.

If you WANT to lose your eye sight, BUY them online. I bet in a matter of 2 days of wearing them you will begin having eye trouble.
