  • Patent number: 9715129
    Abstract: Contact lenses that comprise a multi-layer design may be utilized to enhance and/or highlight the appearance of the eyes upon which the contact lenses are positioned while maintaining a natural look. These exemplary designs each comprise three layers; namely, a unique limbal design graphic, a unique inner effect graphic and a unique outer effect graphic. The layers may be formed utilizing any number of design elements and design principles. The limbal design graphic is the portion of the overall pattern that surrounds the outer diameter of the iris and is closest to the sclera and is meant to highlight, enhance and/or define the limbal region of the eye; however, it also comprises elements that extend into the iris. The inner effect graphic layer is the portion of the overall pattern that is meant to enhance the iris; however, it may comprise a portion that also contributes to highlighting, enhancing and/or defining the limbal region of the eye.

  • Patent number: 9664927
    Abstract: Pearlescent pigments may be incorporated into one or more regions of a cosmetic contact lens to add a shiny, radiant and iridescent appearance thereto. More particularly, mica based pearlescent pigments coated with an oxide, for example, titanium dioxide or iron oxide, incorporated into one or more regions of the contact lens will result in the one or more regions having a natural, wet reflective appearance.
