Contacts for Small Asian Eyes
Contacts that work well with smaller or narrower eye openings should be manageable to insert while still matching the diameter, base curve, and overall fit prescribed for your eyes. Research has found population-level differences in ocular shape among Chinese, Japanese, and white groups, but those averages don't determine what will fit one person. Someone of Asian descent doesn't automatically need a smaller contact lens, and two people with similar-looking eyes can need very different lens parameters.
If your eye doctor has fitted you for a smaller-diameter contact, you're in the right place. We carry options with diameters as small as 13.6 mm, along with 13.8 mm, 14.0 mm, and 14.1 mm choices. Browse the selection below, match the brand and details on your contact lens prescription, and enjoy savings of up to 70% on discount contact lenses.

Does Contact Lens Size Matter?
Yes, but the number printed beside DIA on your prescription is only one part of the fit. Diameter tells you the overall width of the contact lens, while BC, or base curve, describes its curvature. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) includes both base curve and diameter, when appropriate, among the details used to fill a contact lens prescription accurately.
For someone with a narrow eyelid opening, a very large soft lens can be more awkward to insert. A smaller diameter can make handling easier in some cases, but going smaller doesn't automatically create a better fit. The lens still has to center properly, cover the cornea, move appropriately with blinking, and match the shape of the eye. Research on soft lens fitting also shows that ocular shape differs between individuals and populations, which is why your eye doctor's fitting matters more than choosing by ethnicity or appearance alone.
Smaller-Diameter Contacts You Can Find at Lens.com
We carry several contacts with diameters ranging from 13.6 mm to 14.1 mm. These measurements can help you compare options, but stick with the exact product and parameters on your prescription.
- 13.6 mm: Extreme H2O 54% is available with an 8.3 mm base curve. A 14.2 mm version is also available.
- 13.8 mm: Focus Dailies is a daily disposable lens with an 8.6 mm base curve.
- 14.0 mm: Acuvue VITA is a monthly lens available in 8.4 mm and 8.8 mm base curves.
- 14.0 mm: DAILIES AquaComfort Plus Multifocal is a daily multifocal contact lens with an 8.7 mm base curve.
- 14.1 mm: DAILIES TOTAL1 is a daily silicone hydrogel contact lens with an 8.5 mm base curve.
- 14.1 mm: Clariti 1-Day is a daily silicone hydrogel lens with an 8.6 mm base curve.
A smaller diameter doesn't automatically mean a better fit. A 13.8 mm contact, for example, isn't necessarily a better choice than a 14.1 mm lens if your eye doctor fitted you successfully with the larger product.

Are Smaller Contacts Cheaper?
Not necessarily. Contact lens diameter isn't what determines the price. Brand, material, replacement schedule, prescription type, box size, and available rebates have a much bigger effect on the cost of contact lenses.
A smaller daily disposable, for example, can have a very different annual cost from a smaller monthly lens. Toric contact lenses and multifocal designs can also be priced differently from standard spherical contacts even when their diameters are similar. Compare the full supply length and any current rebates rather than choosing a lens based on diameter or box price alone.
Most of all, don't switch to a cheaper smaller lens unless your eye doctor fits and approves it. Federal guidance specifically warns against substituting contact lens brands without approval since products can differ in shape, material, water content, and other fitting characteristics.
Can My Eyes Be Too Small for Contacts?
A narrow eyelid opening by itself doesn't automatically rule out contact lenses. The visible opening between your eyelids and the size of the surface where a soft contact lens sits are different measurements.
The bigger challenge can be insertion and removal. A large soft lens can be harder to maneuver through a narrow opening, so your eye doctor can take that into account when choosing among different types of contact lenses. Studies of ocular anatomy also show enough person-to-person variation that an individual fitting is more useful than choosing contacts based on ancestry alone.
If a standard soft lens feels difficult to insert, sits poorly, or moves too much, talk with your eye doctor rather than sizing down on your own. They can check your cornea, eyelids, tear film, and how the lens behaves on the eye, then fit another diameter, base curve, or lens design when needed.
Why Shop Contacts for Small Eyes at Lens.com?
Once your eye doctor has found the right lens size and brand, we make it straightforward to reorder that exact prescription. You can compare smaller-diameter choices, box sizes, replacement schedules, and current savings without changing the product your doctor fitted.
Save Up to 70% on Contact Lenses
You can save up to 70% on popular contact lenses at Lens.com. The exact savings depend on the brand, box quantity, prescription, and any rebate connected with your purchase.
Smaller contacts don't sit in a separate pricing category, so you'll still find daily, reusable, spherical, toric, and multifocal choices at different price points. Before checking out, compare how many lenses come in each box, how long the supply lasts, rebate requirements, shipping, and the final order total.
We Verify Your Contact Lens Prescription
Your contact lens prescription already tells us which product and fit your eye doctor selected. It can include the manufacturer or brand, power, base curve, and diameter, along with cylinder and axis values when you wear toric contacts.
You can upload, email, or fax your prescription to us. Don't have a copy handy? Give us your eye doctor's name and phone number and we'll contact the office for verification. Your provider has eight business hours to confirm, correct, or reject a complete verification request under the Federal Trade Commission's Contact Lens Rule.
That matters on a page like this since a small difference in diameter or base curve doesn't make two products interchangeable. We'll fill the exact contact lens prescription rather than swapping in another lens simply because it's smaller.
Keep Your Supply on Schedule With AutoRefill
Eligible contacts can be added to AutoRefill, which gives you 5% off future recurring orders. Choose your shipment frequency based on the replacement schedule and number of lenses in each box, then snooze or cancel upcoming shipments through your account when your needs change.
You'll receive an email before an AutoRefill shipment is processed, and you can update the quantity, delivery date, shipping address, or payment card from your account. AutoRefill currently requires a credit card, and PayPal and Afterpay aren't available for recurring orders.
The right contacts for smaller eyes aren't simply the smallest lenses on the shelf. Start with the brand, diameter, base curve, and prescription your eye doctor fitted, then use our selection to reorder the exact contacts that work for you.

Night and Day
Been wearing these for many years. Very thin to allow more oxygen to the eye. I remove and sanitize daily. Great product.
Excellent service!
This product has nothing to dislike about. It is a good quality of contact lenses and will not stop using this brand. My vision is satisfactory using Air Optix brand. Please do not stop carrying them. The sales representative was also very knowledgeable, professional, articulate and kind. My order came in before Thanksgiving and I appreciate it. She expedited sending my order so I will be happy, satisfied with my new lenses. Thank you kindly, for the excellent service !
Affordable price and quality
Love the ease and price of buying Focus dailies through Lens.com. Quick delivery and cheaper than through my eye doctor. Same product and quality. Why waste time and money anywhere else.
Awesome service
I have used Lens.com for several years now and their service is excellent. They even took back contacts I had ordered by mistake. They make it easy to order and receive your product quickly.
Would highly recommend them!
The customer service is prompt and OUTSTANDING
Lens.com is such a breeze to order contacts from, and their customer service is the best. Several boxes of contacts I ordered were lost in the mail and they so were so kind about resending me my order fast and without any extra fees. The quality of these contacts (Biofinity) is unmatched as well. I would highly recommend both Lens.com and Biofinity to anyone.
Worth the price
I work 12 hour shifts and these are the only lenses that don't make me want to rip my eyes out by the end of the day. seriously feels like nothing is there.
Literally forgot i had them in
They're super soft and watery. I accidentally rubbed my eye earlier and forgot I even had them on. Awesome service will buy from here again.
literally forget im wearing them
So soft. I’ve accidentally fallen asleep in them a couple times because they just don’t dry out.
