Hide Those Eyes: Sclera Contact Lenses!

When it comes to costume contact lenses, the scarier the better so if you are searching for creepy contacts, check out mini sclera and sclera contact lenses.

The 'sclera' is the fibrous tissue layer that surrounds the iris, also referred to as the white of the eye. Usually, the sclera is white; however, sclera contact lenses have a unique design that allows them to encroach on to the sclera, creating a seriously scary eye colour that looks disturbingly out of place on a human being.

Available in a variety of styles and sizes, there are varying levels of coverage with sclera contact lenses. If you want maximum scleral coverage that almost completely blocks out the white of the eye then full sclera contact lenses are for you. However, if you'd like to enlarge the look of your iris then try out our mini sclera coloured contact lenses to create a slightly more subtle approach with just as much spooky effect.

The most popular sclera contact lenses on the market are the full black sclera lenses, which provide an opaque black finish covering the entire pupil, iris and sclera (white area). The reason behind this popularity is quite clear; they are the most effective contact lenses for completely transforming your look and giving you an alien appearance. 

That said, full sclera contact lenses are not for everybody; some individuals consider these a little too drastic and prefer to execute their scary costume with mini sclera contact lenses. Sclera contact lenses are best left to experienced contact lens users as they can be tricky to insert and may feel more noticeable against the eye than standard size soft contact lenses. At Coloured Contacts, we stock mini sclera contact lenses that mimic the same eerie effect without the extremity of the full sclera lenses.

Mini Sclera Lenses: White, Red and Black Contacts

For those that love the idea of incorporating colour into the sclera of the eye, these mini sclera contact lenses are a low-key version of the full sclera contact lenses. The mini sclera lenses are a great way to bring shocking colour to any fancy dress costume or cosplay. Completely covering the iris and encroaching onto the white of the eye, these mini sclera lenses still incorporate a clear pupil, giving you an unusual and eye-catching look.

In this festive makeup by @mulan_mtz you can see the difference between the size of the Black Mini Sclera Coloured Contacts and the standard Red Halloween Coloured Contacts.
