Thinking about changing up your eye colour? If you have naturally blue or green eyes and are wondering if brown contact lenses can simply darken your current shade, the answer is… yes and no.
Let’s break it down.
What Brown Lenses Actually Do
Brown lenses are designed to give your eyes a true brown colour, not just a darker version of your natural blue or green tone. So while they absolutely transform your eye colour, they’ll completely cover your current shade—not just deepen it.
That means if you're hoping for a more subtle, toned-down version of your natural colour, a brown lens might feel like a bigger change than expected.
Want a Deeper Look Without a Full Colour Switch?
If you're not looking to go full brown, we recommend checking out our darker contact lenses coloured in deep blue or forest green. These options are perfect for adding depth and mood to your eyes while still keeping that natural undertone that’s uniquely yours.
For example:
-
Darker blue lenses can give your light blue eyes a navy or stormy tone
-
Rich green lenses can enhance your current green with a mossy or olive tint
These types of lenses provide just the right amount of drama without fully masking your eye colour.
Use the “Eye Colours That See Results” Guide
Because everyone’s natural eye colour is slightly different, we’ve added a “Eye colours that see results” section to every product page. It’s super helpful in showing how the lenses are expected to appear over different shades—so you’re not left guessing.
You’ll also see real-life photos and model examples, so you can get a more accurate idea of what your chosen shade might look like.

The Bottom Line: Go Full Brown or Keep the Natural Vibe
