Bigger Eyes With Contact Lenses
This new breed of contact lenses claim to give the wearer the look of bigger, brighter eyes through the use of optical illusion in the design of their contact lenses. Anime eyes anyone?
The lenses feature a unique and defined dark ring that enhances and darkens the iris (the coloured part of the eye) thereby making the eyes bigger, brighter and more defined. With the average Horizontal Visible Iris Diameter being 11.2mm, the outer diameter of the lens is increased by a few thousandths of a milimeter, thus enlarging the eyes.
Generate's Nadesicco Black, popular among Japanese schoolgirls wanting to look like their favorite anime characters. These particular brand of lenses makes the whole iris black. The effect is (purposely) more pronounced and less subtle than other similar lenses.
1-Day Acuvue Define
The dark ring is set in the middle of two layers of Etafilcon A material to avoid direct contact with the eyes.
Freshkon Alluring Eyes
Available in one color - mystical black.
Clearvue's Big Eyes 2
Clearvue's Big Eyes 2 come in a variety of colors - blue, violet, gray, green, hazel and natural. The fact that these are also colored contacts make
the eyes look even bigger owing to the optical illusion -light colors contract, and dark colors retract.
The Clearvue Big Eyes range can be bought online at the Contact For Lenses website (browse by brand under Clearvue)
Regular Color Contacts
Even regular colored lenses give the effect of bigger eyes - provided that the color is a light enough color - it's all in the optical illusion - lighter colors will make your eyes look larger.
Of all the colored lenses, Freshlook ColorBlends looks the most realistic. Try matching the colored lenses to your complexion and hair color. Just because those green contacts look fantastic on your friend, doesn't necessarily mean it will look great on you.
