Coloured Contact Lenses Guide

Ready to transform your look? Coloured contact lenses offer an easy way to enhance your natural eye colour or achieve a dramatic, vibrant new style for any occasion.

Mandatory: Your Health & Prescription

For your safety and eye health, all coloured contact lenses (including non-correcting plano) lenses are medical devices that require a valid contact lens prescription.
Optometrist Fitting is Essential: A professional fitting with your optometrist is mandatory. They will ensure the lenses suit your eyes, guarantee maximum comfort, and preserve your eye health.
Prescription Required: You must have a prescription that clearly states the brand, lens parameters, and colour specification when ordering.
Safe Wear: Always follow your optometrist's instructions for proper lens care.


TYPES OF COLOURED LENSES

Coloured contacts are available in two primary wear cycles and multiple tint styles. You can choose from Daily Lenses, such as ACUVUE DEFINE® and FRESHLOOK® ONE-DAY, for maximum hygiene and convenience, or opt for Monthly Lenses, like AIR OPTIX COLORS, which offer a cost-effective solution.

Tint styles fall into three main categories: Enhancement Tints (e.g., AIR OPTIX COLORS Subtle Range) subtly enhance your natural eye colour for an understated change. Vivid Tints (e.g., AIR OPTIX COLORS Vibrant Range) use opaque, bright colours to completely transform your eye colour for a dramatic look. Finally, "Circle" Lenses (e.g., ACUVUE DEFINE) feature a limbal ring to give the appearance of a larger, more prominent iris.

The final colour effect will depend on your natural eye colour and the lens's tint opacity.
For Lighter Eyes: Enhancement tints usually provide the most natural and effective results.
For Darker Eyes: You will typically need a more opaque and vivid tint to ensure the colour shows up clearly.
Your optometrist's fitting is the best opportunity to trial colours and find what looks best on you.


RETURNS & EXCHANGES POLICY (COLOUR LENSES)

Due to strict health and safety regulations, all coloured contact lenses are considered medical items.
Acceptable Returns: We only accept returns for unopened, unmarked, and factory-sealed boxes within 30 days of delivery.
Colour Dissatisfaction: We cannot accept returns or exchanges due to dissatisfaction with the colour unless the specific colour, brand, and style were officially prescribed by your optometrist. 'Change of mind' is not applicable to these medical devices.
