DIA 14.0 mm is the diameter of a contact lens. It is the distance from one edge of the lens to the other. The diameter is an important factor in determining the fit of a contact lens. A lens that is too small or too large can be uncomfortable and may not provide clear vision.

The average contact lens diameter size is around 14mm, given that the average cornea is about 12mm in diameter. Smaller eyes may be closer to the 14mm diameter size, whereas bigger eyes may land more toward the 14.5mm end of the range.

People with average-sized eyes or who prefer a natural look often wear 14.0 mm diameter contact lenses. These lenses are a good choice for everyday wear because they provide a slight to no enlargement effect.

For example, the Polar Lights Brown Contacts are a classic choice for natural-look makeup. Trinity Green lenses can bring natural hazel eyes to you!

The best way to find your perfect contact lens diameter is to:

1. See an eye doctor. They'll measure your cornea (eye surface) using a keratometer. This ensures your lenses fit comfortably and offer clear vision.

2. Get a prescription. This includes the diameter and other vital measurements for your unique eyes.

3. Order lenses with your exact prescription. Even slight variations can affect fit and comfort.

While a 0.2mm difference seems small, diameter isn't the only factor affecting fit. Material, thickness, and water content also play a crucial role. So, unfortunately, a simple number comparison isn't enough to determine if 14.0mm lenses will work for you.

The only way to ensure a proper fit is to try on the lenses under the guidance of an eye doctor. They can help you find the perfect fit for safe and comfortable vision.

Wearing the wrong diameter contact lens isn't just a style misstep, it can affect your eye health and comfort. Here's why:

Too Big, Too Loose: A lens with a larger-than-ideal diameter will wobble around, causing blurry vision, irritation, and even falling out. Think of it like wearing a wobbly shoe – not exactly pleasant!

Too Small, Too Tight: A lens that's too small for your eye will feel like a clamp, squeezing your cornea and causing discomfort. It can also limit oxygen flow to your eye, leading to dryness and potential infections.

Remember: Wearing the wrong diameter lens can be uncomfortable and even risky. Stick to your doctor's recommendation!
