I don't think saying you have blue eyes if you have blue contacts is lying. Physically you have brown eyes. But if you say to somebody who's looking for you in a store "I have brown hair and brown eyes" they won't find you. You have to say "I have brown hair and blue eyes" unless you want to get really verbose and say I" have brown hair and brown eyes, but don't look for a brown eyed person because I have blue contacts so look for a blue eyed person even though I'm not blue eyed." To me, just saying you have blue eyes isn't a lie. After all, if you had dyed blonde hair, would you say you had brown hair or blonde hair?
