These are translucent tints and they blend in with the natural colour of the eye. Because they are translucent they can only be used on light coloured eyes. .
- Opaque tint — These tints are solid and opaque, they cover the iris of your eye completely. Because of that your eye colour is hidden behind the coloured lenses. This changes the eye colour to whatever coloured contact lenses you are wearing. Many coloured contact lenses that are used for Halloween costume are all opaque contact lenses.
