Definition: Opaque contact lenses are designed to completely change the color of dark eyes. Opaque contacts use opaque (not transparent) or solid tints that do not allow any of your natural eye color to be visible. If you have dark eyes and want to change their color, you'll need to wear opaque lenses. This type of color contact is available in an array of colors including hazel, green, blue, violet, amethyst and gray.
