Contact Lenses:
Colored Contacts
Contact lenses aren't just for seeing better. They're for looking
better too. In fact, some people who don't even need vision correction
wear tinted contact lenses as a way to change their look.
Today's
tinted lenses allow you to enhance your natural eye color -- making
the blue bluer or the green greener -- or change it altogether.
Three
categories of tinted contact lenses are available:
-
Cosmetic enhancement tints are designed to enhance your natural eye
color. These translucent lenses are best for light-colored eyes
(blues and greens, hazels and grays). When wearing these tints, the
color of your eye becomes a blend of the lens tint and your natural
eye color.
-
Opaque, or "cosmetic," tints change the color of dark eyes. The
pattern on the lens, which is colored, overlies the colored part of
your eye. The result is a natural look.
-
Visibility tints are very pale, but are colored enough to make the
contact lens visible during handling without any effect on eye
color.
With
tinted lenses you accomplish two goals at once: Seeing better and
looking better.
