Colored contact lenses are designed to be a fun accessory to change your eye color based on your mood, outfit, makeup or plans. You can cover the iris with a new color, which is the cornerstone of the concept of colored contact lenses.
Generally, there are two varieties of colored contact lenses – opaque colors and enhancement tints. Depending on the color of the iris, both designs can work well. An amazing feature of colored lenses is that they never look exactly the same on one person as they do on another. This is because the iris color is not the same in two different people; in this way, they are just like fingerprints.
Opaque lenses change an eye’s color entirely. Usually they are heavily colored over the iris area, with a clear pupil opening in the center of the lens. Depending on the style of the lens and the color chosen, the texture and tint of color will vary. For example, Acuvue 2 opaque blue and Freshlook blue are entirely different.
Boosting an existing eye color or slightly altering its tint is the main purpose of colored contact lenses. The light tint enhancers can vary from covering the entire lens to covering the outer edge of the iris. A sea green enhancer gives a bright green, a very natural effect, to a green eye. The same lens put on a brown eye may not have any effect on the original eye color.
The equinox lens is a new concept in eye color enhancement. This lens has a black ring around the outside of the iris. This adds a captivating effect to one’s existing eye color and looks completely natural.
The ability to change one’s eye color simply by putting in a colored contact lens is gaining popularity these days. It is genuine fun, but one has to ensure that the lenses fit the eyes.
