Colored Contact Lenses

Today, thanks to technology, different types of colored contact lenses exist. The most frequent are visibility tints, opaque color contacts, enhancement tints, and light filtering tints. Colored contacts are available either in plano (which means without any vision correction) or with the right vision correction for your eyes (long/short sighted, astimagtism...).

Visibility tint contact lenses are to be used to simply slightly change your eye color. In fact it only gives a slight tint to it, so the change is rather light. These are often lenses with a light blue or green tint added to them.

The second type of colored contacts is enhancement ones. These are solid contact lenses (translucent) which give a stronger and darker tint than the visibility ones. The goal of these colored contacts is to enhance the color of your eye. If you have light colored eyes then these will be the ones you will surely want to purchase!

Opaque tint color contacts are used to completely change the color of your eye. They are made of solid color in order to change drastricly your eye color. These are often used by people with dark eyes, as it is more difficult to change their eye color.

You do not hear very often about light-filtering colored contacts, because these are mainly used by sports men. These contact lenses have been designed for sport, so that certain colors are filtered to optimize the players performance (yellow for the tennis ball for example).

Do now its up to you to see which ones are suited for you. I think with what i have written you should know what type of color contacts you need to buy!
