Cosmetically tinted contact lenses have a surface coating intended to change the color of your eyes, not to influence visual performance.  The ALTIUS lens is a premium product that selectively filters colors that reach your retina to enhance certain aspects of performance (reducing glare, improving contrast, enhancing the seams of a baseball in flight).  The ALTIUS lens options are designed to maximize your visual performance in sports and recreational activities and to provide relief from light sensitivity.
