subject: Helping Those With Dark Colored Eyes Find The Right Colored Contact Lenses For Their Eyes [print this page] . We'll walk you through the different styles and colors that are out there as well as which ones work best for which types of eyes.
Opaque contact lenses use a solid tint to conceal your eye color and are best suited for people with a very dark brown color. The solid tint of the coloring means you'll only be able to see through the center portion of the lens, so you may need to consider this when deciding on a set of contact lenses. Opaque lenses do come in a wide variety of colors, including blue, green, hazel and gray, so you'll be able to change your eye color to just about any one you want.
Another popular style of colored contact lenses is the enhancement variety; these are not designed to change your eye color but to enhance the color you already have. You should only invest in this type of contact lens if you want to make your eye color more noticeable or beautiful.
Unfortunately, this lens does not work well with eyes that have a very dark color because the effect is overwhelmed by the natural color; this lens is more suitable for people with light colored eyes, like blue or light brown. Enhancement contact lenses can also be found in several colors, and among the most popular are blue, green and gray.
Color tint contact lenses are also one of the more common types of colored lenses, and these are great for people who have a dark eye color. Color tints are the favorite lens of those who want to make a very dramatic change in their eye color, one that will instantly grab the attention of everyone in the room. Most color tint manufacturers usually produce these lenses in three colors - blue, green and violet.
