Pitch Black Contact Lens


The Pitch Black Contact Lens


Pitch Black Contact LensIf your looking to add drama and mystery to your Gothic style, a pitch black contact lens can be a stunning addition. They will make your eyes look large, dark and mysterious.


These signature Gothic contacts are a great way to make a personal statement or as an accent to your overall look.


Depending on what Gothic eye makeup you wear, a pitch black contact lens can give your eyes a mysterious or mildly spooky appearance (particularly with raccoon eye makeup) or you can go with a downright unnatural, scary or creepy look if you want to freak your friends out.






A Window To Your Soul.....
If you have dark eyes already. Wear a black contact lens in just one eye and watch people double take when looking into your soul. A subtle yet dramatic trick.




Types of Pitch Black Contact Lenses

Your black lenses can be in the shape of a regular contact lens (where they cover your pupil) or a sclera lens (which means they cover the white of your eye as well). You have a few variations  from this that you can try:


  • Pitch Black Contact Lens - Will cover you pupil, leaving your whites uncovered and are not as shiny as the pitch black mirrored contacts lenses.


  • Pitch Black Mirrored Contact Lenses - Think Vin Diesel as Riddick in the movie Pitch Black with his reflective eyes.


  • Sclera Lenses - These cover you whites as well for a truly dark Gothic look.

Wearing Pitch Black Contact Lenses

You may wish to talk to an optometrist about which type of lens you hope to acquire and how you intend to wear them. They may be able to point you in the right direction when it comes to the brand, material, and fit you need.

You can get black contact lenses with or without vision correction, so no matter what your needs, you can get the look you want. Just be aware that most FX Contact Lenses are typically soft lenses, with the exception of mirrored contact lenses. Keep in mind, depending which contact lens you get, some will feel like your wearing tinted sun glasses.

Before you purchase your contact lenses, be sure to find out how long they are designed to last. They are not designed to last forever, so if you're contemplating spending a lot of money on a pair of custom painted lenses, it's best to know ahead of time how many times you will be able to wear them before you toss them.

Also find out how long they are intended to be worn. Some lenses are not recommended for wear for more than a couple hours per day. You will also need to know when to dispose of them—after a month of daily use, after a year, and so forth. It will depend on the lenses.

Check with your eye care professional if you experience any discomfort after lens wear.

Handle your lenses carefully, with clean hands. Soak them overnight in a solution designed for your lens type.

Don't ever share them.
