Change your style with Enhancement Color Contacts or Opaque Colored Contact Lenses as they become increasingly popular outside Hollywood

One extremely popular innovation in recent years has become color contacts. As with other eye products, there are many options for those considering color contacts.

Visibility Tinted Color Contacts

Some lenses have only what is called a visibility tint. These lenses are designed with a light blue or green tint usually so that you can find them more easily in solution, but they are not color contacts in the sense that they will make your eyes appear to be a different color.

Enhancement Color Contacts

Instead of visibility tinting, many color contacts have what are known as enhancement tinting. The enhancement tint results in darker color contacts, which can be used by people with light eyes to darken or intensify their natural eye color. The enhancement tinting is still translucent, but still solid.

Opaque Color Contacts

For those who are looking for a dramatic change, they should try color contacts with opaque color tints. This type of color contacts comes in a wide variety of colors and can actually make your eyes appear to be amethyst, blue, gray, hazel, green or a variety of other colors. The difference with the opaque tints is that the center of the contact that covers the pupil is clear rather than tinted to avoid interfering with vision.

Special Effect Color Contacts

Those lenses that are for costume or theatrical use also fall under the category of opaque tinted color contacts. They include an clear range of products that can be anything from seasonal shamrocks to glaring red to glow in the dark.

Color contacts can be inconvenient sometimes if they are not correctly fitted to your eye because when you blink, they move and the opaque tint moves to cover the pupil. Also, given that pupils change sizes, they can occasionally be larger than the area left clear by the color contacts.
Except for the occasional visibility problem, color contacts can be a fun alternative to traditional brands and can add some variety to your natural appearance. As with other lenses, color contacts require visiting an eye doctor to make sure that you have the correct prescription, even if you are getting the color contacts only for fun and not due to a vision deficiency.
