Lenses colored to approximate color of skin in ocular region and methods of manufacture

Abstract

A device and method of making the device is described. In some implementations, an eyeglass lens is colored so that it is semi-opaque or opaque and approximates the color of a particular user's skin. In an example, the lens can be colored by placing an adhesive material on the front or rear surface of the lens. In an additional or alternative example, the lens can be colored by dyeing the lens material. In an additional or alternative example, the lens can be colored by painting the lens material. The colored lens blocks the view of passersby of the ocular region of the wearer and is itself inconspicuous because the approximate skin color camouflages its presence.
