A contact lens, comprising a preprint of a first shade and a main print of a second shade, wherein the preprint consisting of a first band of gradient dot matrix, wherein the main print consisting of a second band of evenly spaced circular voids, wherein the second band surrounds the starburst pattern, wherein the first band and the second band have a substantially identical outer diameter and the first band has a smaller inside diameter than the second band, wherein the first shade and the second shade are different, wherein the gradient dot matrix is characterized by dot coverage increases in a radial direction from the center too the peripheral edge or a position near the peripheral edge of the substantially-circular pattern.

The invention provides a method for producing colored contact lenses with relatively high quality color images. The method of the invention comprises the steps of: (a) obtaining a water based ink having a viscosity of greater than about 100 centipoise (cps) and comprising at least one colorant, a water-soluble binder polymer having ethylenically unsaturated groups, an initiator, and a surfactant, wherein the surfactant is present in an amount sufficient to provide the ink a dynamic surface tension of less than about 40 dyne / cm at surface age of about 1 second, and wherein the initiator is present in an amount sufficient to allow the ink to be cured with an energy exposure which is comparable with an energy exposure required for curing the lens-forming material; (b) applying the ink, by using pad transfer printing technique, to at least a portion of at least one of molding surfaces of a lens mold to form a colored coat; (c) actinically curing the ink printed on the mold to form a colored film, wherein the printed ink is cured to an extent so that no noticeable color smearing is observed by examination with naked eyes; (d) dispensing a lens-forming material into the lens-forming cavity of the mold; and (e) actinically or thermally curing the lens-forming material within the lens-forming cavity to form the contact lens, whereby the colored film detaches from the molding surface and becomes integral with the body of the contact lens, wherein the colored film becomes part of one of the anterior and posterior surface of the colored contact lens and has a good adhesion to the lens.

The invention discloses a composite structured colored contact lens which comprises a contact lens body (1); and the composite structured colored contact lens is characterized in that a uniform single-colored or mixed-colored structural colour colloidal crystal solution polymer serving as a structural colour area is cured at the outside of the contact lens body (1). Compared with other contact lenses, the composite structured colored contact lens disclosed by the invention is more beautiful, good in biocompatibility and good in practicability.
