Colored contact lenses have become increasingly popular in recent years, and it is even possible to get them in prescription format. What exactly do we mean by that? Well, a prescription lens is one that corrects your eyesight, in the same way, that glasses do. A colored lens is a type of contact lens which is tinted, or which has a design on it. A colored prescription lens, therefore, is a lens which is not only tinted or has a plan, but which also lets you see correctly.
