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. |
