As their name implies, cosmetic contact lenses are used to hide or cover blemishes or disfigurements of the iris, cornea, or sclera. A wide variety of options are available to the optometrist in attempting to aid a child with an ocular disfigurement. The customized artist-painted scleral shell is ideal in many cases, but a surprising number of defects can be adequately camouflaged with corneal lenses presently available from laboratories. The future use of cosmetic soft lenses is promising, and since many conditions involving the need for optical correction are capable of provoking future visual disorders, infants today can look forward to better vision when a cosmetic contact lens is fitted early in life.
顾名思义，美容隐形眼镜用于遮盖虹膜、角膜或巩膜的瑕疵或缺陷。验光师在试图帮助患有眼部缺陷的儿童时，有各种各样的选择。定制的艺术家手绘巩膜壳在许多情况下是理想的选择，但目前实验室提供的角膜镜片也能充分掩盖相当数量的缺陷。美容软性隐形眼镜的未来应用前景广阔，而且由于许多需要光学矫正的情况都可能引发未来的视觉障碍，如今的婴儿在幼年时佩戴美容隐形眼镜有望获得更好的视力。
