Grey Contact Lenses

Grey contacts add a sleek, modern look to your style with a unique smoky tone. They are a great choice if you want a noticeable color change that looks sophisticated and matches easily with any outfit or makeup look.

Grey contact lenses come in two main tint types. Opaque grey lenses fully cover your natural eye color and work on any eye color including dark brown, while translucent lenses subtly shift or enhance your existing color for a more natural result. Most grey contacts available at Lens.com are made from soft hydrogel or silicone hydrogel materials, which allow oxygen to pass through to the cornea and are comfortable for everyday wear.

Grey contacts are available in plano and prescription versions covering nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia, and come in daily, biweekly, and monthly replacement schedules. Your eye care professional can confirm which lens type, shade, and replacement schedule fits your prescription and the look you want to achieve.

Lens.com carries grey contact lenses from three brands across daily and monthly replacement schedules. Your eye care professional can confirm which lens fits your prescription and desired look.

• Air Optix Colors by Alcon - monthly silicone hydrogel lens available in Sterling Grey for color enhancement and definition
• FreshLook ColorBlends by Alcon - biweekly hydrogel lens in grey shades for a full color change with all-day comfort
• FreshLook One-Day by Alcon - daily disposable color lens in grey for wearers who prefer no maintenance routine

A box of six grey contact lenses typically costs between $20 and $90. If you replace your contacts every two weeks, your annual lens cost could range from $200 to $900 depending on the brand and how often your eye care professional recommends replacement. Purchasing through online retailers like Lens.com can reduce costs significantly compared to brick-and-mortar stores, and all lenses sold are from the same trusted brands available through your eye care professional.

Note: Prices are subject to change and may vary based on prescription type, lens quantity, and current promotions. Check the Rebate Center at Lens.com for current offers before ordering.

Grey contact lenses are soft disposable lenses and require the same care as standard soft contact lenses. Always wash and dry your hands before handling lenses, clean them daily with a multipurpose solution recommended by your eye care professional, and never use tap water to rinse or store them as contaminants can adhere to the lens surface.

Store lenses in fresh solution each time they are removed, replace the lens case regularly, and remove lenses before bathing or swimming. Never share lenses with another person as this can spread infection, and always replace and discard lenses according to the schedule your eye care professional recommends.

Grey contact lenses are soft lenses and follow the standard insertion and removal process. Always wash and dry your hands before handling lenses.

To insert:

• Wash hands with mild soap and dry with a lint-free towel
• Scoop the lens out of the case with the index finger of your dominant hand
• Rinse with multipurpose solution and inspect for tears or debris
• Pull down your lower eyelid with the middle finger of your dominant hand
• Place the lens on your eye while looking straight ahead and blink to center it
• Repeat with the other lens

To remove:

• Hold your eyelids open with one hand
• Gently pinch the lens between your index finger and thumb
• Carefully lift the lens off your eye and repeat with the other lens

Yes, a valid contact lens prescription is required to purchase grey contact lenses in the United States, including plano lenses used only for cosmetic purposes. Federal law prohibits the sale of contact lenses without a prescription, and grey contacts sold without one are not being sold legally. Always purchase from a licensed retailer like Lens.com that requires a prescription and sells only FDA-approved lenses.
