Compatible Lens Options

Compatible lenses vary by material and coloring process. Adventure in Colors works with a range of approved conventional soft lenses, including products from several specialty lens manufacturers.

Compatibility should be confirmed with Adventure in Colors before sending an outside lens for tinting.

Wear & Replacement

Adventure in Colors tinted lenses are conventional daily-wear soft lenses. They are not disposable lenses. The typical replacement schedule is 12 months unless otherwise directed by the prescribing eye-care professional.

Important Information

Color is warranted against fading for up to 6 months.

Because tint colors are created through a customized coloring process rather than a standardized stamping or machine process, an exact color match cannot always be guaranteed. A small color variation may occur.

All lenses should be dispensed and evaluated promptly after receipt.

Lens tearing is separate from the color-fading warranty.

For qualifying tears reported within the initial 45-day period, the torn lens must be returned to Adventure in Colors for evaluation before a replacement is produced. Additional charges may apply.

Changes that require production of a new lens may result in additional charges.

Custom color matching to a supplied sample may be available.
