Whether you're looking to enhance your natural eye color or simply need an alternative to glasses, contact lenses offer a practical and fashionable solution. For beginners, however, the world of contact lenses can be a little overwhelming with its terminology, types, and care instructions. In this comprehensive guide by NEOCUTEY, a trusted contact lens and colored lens manufacturer, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know to get started safely and confidently.
Contact lenses generally fall into two main categories: clear (transparent) lenses and colored (cosmetic) lenses. Both types can be either prescription or non-prescription.
Clear Lenses: Designed primarily for vision correction. Invisible once applied.
Colored Lenses: Available with or without prescription, ideal for fashion and self-expression.
Soft Lenses: Made from gel-like materials for comfort; most popular among beginners.
RGP Lenses: More durable and allow high oxygen flow but may require longer adjustment.
Daily Disposables: Great for hygiene and convenience. No cleaning required.
Monthly/Yearly Lenses: Reusable but need regular cleaning and storage.
Prescription Lenses: Tailored to your eyesight. White Label Beauty Products Dropshipping.Always consult an eye care professional.
Non-Prescription: Popular in the cosmetic lens category, especially for parties, cosplay, or style.
