If the BC (Base Curve: generally only two sizes 8.4 and 8.6) OR the diameter is too large, your lenses will feel uncomfortable. Diameters come in several sizes, although some manufactures have one size only (such as 14.20).
I've found that my personal lenses, Air Optix Aqua by Ciba only came in one size, 8.6/14.20, and were too large for my eye. Conversely, Air Optix Night and Day (formerly Focus Night and Day) come in two BC.. 8.4 and 8.6 but have only one diameter, 13.8. I have a trail pair in currently, Air Optix Aqua with a BC of 8.6 and Diameter of 14.20 and extremely uncomfortable. My Focus Night and Days have a BC of 8.4 and a diameter (no option) of 13.8 and are much better.

You are given one set of eyes. To be safe, the best thing to do is to set up an appointment with your personal or local optometrist. They can examine your eyes to make sure they are healthy and that you will have no problems inserting/wearing what ever color contact you choose to wear. You need to go back to the optometrist and have your eyes checked after wearing the contacts. Make sure you purchase the correct cleaning material to take care of your contacts and use good hand washing technique when caring for the contacts and your eyes.
