Purple Contacts illuminate anyones eye with that extra sparkle.
Although it might seem a little funny, many people often wonder if purple contact lenses, or any color of contacts for that matter, will tint their vision. Thankfully enough, rest assured knowing that they will change the hue of your vision. Regardless of whether or not they are prescribed or simply for fashion purposes, purple contact lenses are designed enhance vision, not make it more difficult.
The Iris Versus The Pupil
The colored area of your eye, known as the iris, is the portion of the contact lens that is tinted to your color of choice, including purple for people interested in having purple contact lenses. The center of your eye, known as the pupil, is the portion of the eye that actually “sees” things. Light enters it and your brain transforms this into a picture of what is in your field of view.
Purple contact lenses are only tinted with color around the area that surrounds your iris, while leaving the pupil area clear. This allows your eyes to take on the color of the contact lenses you purchased, without messing up the tint of your actual vision.
