Are red contact lenses safe to wear?
Yes, our red lenses are safe when used properly. Our standard-sized red lenses can be worn comfortably for up to 8 hours, making them perfect for events or everyday style statements.
Our mini red sclera lenses, though, are slightly larger and can reduce oxygen flow to the eye. We recommend wearing them for no more than 4 hours to avoid dryness or vision blockage.
As always, follow proper hygiene routines and care instructions when handling any lenses. If you're unsure which red style best suits your wear time or comfort needs, we’re here to help you find the perfect fit
Can you see through red contact lenses?
Yes, you can still see while wearing our red contact lenses. They’re designed to cover your iris and enhance your look without blocking your vision.
However, if you're opting for our mini red sclera lenses, it's worth noting that their larger size can slightly obscure your peripheral vision. These lenses are perfect for bold, dramatic looks but might not be ideal for long periods or situations where clear sight is essential.
What’s the difference between red mesh, red blind, and regular red contact lenses?
The difference between red mesh, red blind, and bloody red lenses mostly comes down to how much visibility you need and how dramatic you want the effect to be.
Red mesh lenses fully cover your natural eye colour but are designed with a fine mesh pattern that still allows you to see, making them ideal for costumes where you need both visibility and impact.
Red blind lenses take it further by completely covering the iris and pupil, giving a true blanked-out, possessed look. These lenses will obscure your vision and are best for short appearances, photoshoots, or moments when you don’t need to see clearly.
Bloody Red lenses offer the most wearable option. They just cover your iris (not the pupil), so your vision stays clear and they're generally more breathable and comfortable for longer wear.
Do red contact lenses work on dark eyes?
Our red lenses are designed with high opacity, meaning they provide bold results even on dark brown or black eyes. If you’re after that intense, supernatural red look, our designs are made to cover your natural eye colour completely, giving you the drama you're going for.
That said, it's always worth checking the individual lens product pages for examples and guidance, especially if you're aiming for a very specific effect. And if you’re unsure, we’re more than happy to help you choose the shade that will deliver the boldest result for your eye colour.
Do I need a prescription to buy red contact lenses in the UK?
At Colour Your Eyes, we only sell non-prescription cosmetic lenses designed for aesthetic use. While you don’t need a vision correction prescription to shop with us, it’s important to wear lenses responsibly and follow the correct care and wear guidelines.
If you're unsure which red lens is right for your look or how to wear them safely, we’re always here to help you make the best, and safest, choice for your eyes.
Can I get red contact lenses with prescription in the UK?
Prescription red lenses do exist, but at Colour Your Eyes, we only offer non-prescription cosmetic lenses designed to change your eye colour, not correct your vision.
If you're looking for red lenses with vision correction, we recommend speaking to your optician, who can guide you toward prescription options that also deliver the dramatic look you're after.
If you're unsure which non-prescription red lens will best suit your style or event, we're always happy to help you find the right match for both comfort and effect.
How long can I safely wear red contact lenses?
You can safely wear our standard-sized red contact lenses for up to 6 hours, making them perfect for Halloween parties, long cosplay events or stage performances.
If you’re wearing our mini red sclera lenses, we recommend limiting wear to 4 hours. These lenses are slightly larger, which can reduce oxygen flow to the eyes and lead to dryness or irritation with extended use.

You can order red contact lenses directly from Colour Your Eyes, with fast and reliable UK shipping available, ideal for last-minute events like Halloween or cosplay conventions.
We offer free UK shipping on orders over £20, and all orders placed before 1PM (Monday–Friday) are dispatched the same day. You can also choose express delivery at checkout if you need your lenses in a hurry.
If you’re unsure which style is right for your look or need help choosing in time for your event, we’re always happy to help make sure your lenses arrive quickly, and make the impact you're going for.
What costumes or characters do red contact lenses go with?
Red contact lenses are one of the boldest ways to transform your look, and they work across a range of characters, from vampires, demons, and devils to werewolves, possessed beings, and anime villains.
Whether you're recreating an iconic horror moment or going for something intense and supernatural, red lenses instantly bring drama to any costume.
