1. OLENS (오렌즈) – South Korea’s leading colored contact lens brand,

OLENS has built a global fanbase with its trendsetting designs and K-pop partnerships. It’s known for natural-looking yet eye-enhancing styles like Scandi (a realistic everyday lens) and more vibrant lines such as Russian Smoky/Russian Velvet and Spanish, as well as the romantic ViVi Ring series. OLENS also pioneered comfort technology with its “Puscon” material for sensitive eyes and adheres to strict KFDA standards. The brand’s high profile collaboration with K-pop superstars Blackpink – who serve as long-time muses and brand ambassadors – has further boosted its international recognition. (In fact, OLENS Blackpink Collection features lens colors inspired by each member, underscoring OLENS pop culture influence.) Standout features: extremely natural blending that flatters dark eyes, a wide range of daily and monthly options, and celebrity-backed credibility that lets fans “wear the looks” of their idols.

2. Hapa Kristin – This fast-growing Korean brand has become a global favorite for its “most natural looking colored contacts” and playful concept. Hapa Kristin lenses prioritize comfort – the brand touts ultra-breathable, hydrating materials – and come in whimsical packaging adorned with cartoon “Kristin” characters that represent different moods (e.g. Cheerful Kristin, Blasé Kristin, Wow Kristin). They offer a wide variety of subtle enhancers in tones of brown, gray, hazel, etc., which beautifully enlarge and brighten dark eyes without looking fake. The brand’s fun, Instagrammable aesthetic and high quality have attracted major endorsements – IVE’s Jang Wonyoung became a Hapa Kristin ambassador, cementing its star appeal. Standout features: youthful stylish branding, extremely natural iris designs, all-day comfort for dry eyes, and a strong social media presence that resonates with K-beauty influencers.

4. Lenstown (렌즈타운) – This popular Korean brand (also stylized as LENSTOWN) is a go-to for stylish circle lenses that complement K-pop and K-beauty makeup looks. Lenstown produces a wide variety of colored contacts in trendy designs – from enlarging brown and gray lenses for a soft “ulzzang” appearance to bolder multi-color styles for special looks. The brand is highly popular in South Korea and across Asia as a fashion accessory, and it has expanded globally with an international site. Many of its lenses feature a limbal ring and rich color payoff that photograph beautifully, making them favored for Instagram and idol-inspired styling. Standout features: an extensive range of diameters and colors to “enhance the appearance of your eyes” for any occasion, affordable pricing, and frequent new releases that align with current beauty trends (some collections have even been themed around K-pop concepts or characters). While not tied to one specific celebrity, Lenstown’s products are often seen in Korean makeup tutorials and admired by K-pop fans for their eye-catching yet wearable styles.

5. i-DOL Lens (아이돌 렌즈) – True to its name, i-DOL Lens is a cutting-edge Korean brand designed for those who want idol-worthy eyes. It fuses fashion-forward style with comfort, offering lenses that let wearers channel the looks of K-pop stars while still feeling natural. Known for its “fast fashion” approach to contacts, i-DOL regularly updates its lineup with new colors and patterns – from subtle nude-brown tints to striking gray or blue hues – that help you stand out. Despite the bold styles, the lenses are carefully crafted to maintain a realistic effect: by subtly enlarging the iris without sacrificing a natural look, i-DOL has redefined what a Korean contact lens brand can achieve in terms of beauty enhancement. The brand has become a hit among the Asian beauty community and K-pop fans; many note that i-DOL lenses “represent the fusion of style and comfort”, making them suitable for daily wear or stage makeup alike. Standout features: ultra-thin lenses with vibrant payoff, designs that “resonate with fans of K-pop”, and influencer buzz – i-DOL is frequently reviewed in YouTube try-ons and touted for its ability to transform one’s look while still feeling comfortable.

6. LensVery (렌즈베리) – LensVery is a renowned Korean contact lens brand (formerly known as Lens Story) that has gained immense popularity as a go-to for “invisible” eyewear with style. As a sister brand of the large chain Ann365, LensVery distinguishes itself by offering unique, specially-designed contacts that often set new trends rather than following the crowd. Their catalog ranges from ultra-natural daily tints that subtly brighten the iris to more vivid monthly lenses with multi-tone designs. LensVery stands at the intersection of eye health and fashion, blending aesthetic appeal with high-grade vision correction. All products are KFDA certified and crafted with advanced materials; the company even researches different pupil shapes and curvatures to achieve a superior fit and comfort for each lens. Standout features: innovative designs that let you “discover a new you every day” (LensVery’s philosophy is about self-expression through eye color), strong commitment to safety and quality, and wide availability – LensVery’s parent Ann365 operates hundreds of stores in Korea, and LensVery’s lenses are now sold worldwide through global shipping. It’s a brand that beauty insiders trust for both daily wear and special occasions, thanks to its blend of reliability and style.

7. LensRang (렌즈랑) - LensRang is a Korean colored contact lens brand known for its focus on soft, natural-looking circle lenses. A relatively newer entrant, it has quickly become a trending brand in Korea by “revolutionizing the natural, makeup-free look” of colored contacts. LensRang lenses are widely available through optical shops in Korea and have gained international popularity through online retailers. The brand offers lenses in a wide power range (0.00 to -10.00) to cater to both cosmetic and prescription wearers.

8. Lens ME (렌즈미) was established in 2012 in South Korea and has grown into one of the country’s leading contact lens companies. It operates an extensive franchise network of over 200 stores across Korea,

making it a household name for cosmetic lenses. Lens Me’s influence extends globally – the company exports its lenses to Asia and the Middle East (including markets like the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore), often under collaborative brands. The brand is known for trendy designs and celebrity marketing; for example, K-pop idols (like girl group STAYC in 2021) have been muses for Lens Me, reflecting its popularity with younger consumers. Lens Me also innovates in customer experience – offering in-store lens trials, “self-design” custom lens programs, and seasonal limited editions to keep lens fashion fresh.

9. OLOLA (sometimes stylized as O-Lola or 오로라 in Korean) is a rising Korean contact lens brand that has quickly gained a global following. Based in Gyeonggi Province, OLOLA launched in the late 2010s with an emphasis on worldwide shipping and online sales – they run their own international website and even separate portals in Korean, Japanese, etc., to reach customers abroad. This digital-first approach has made OLOLA popular in various countries, from Taiwan to the U.S., despite being a relatively young brand. OLOLA markets itself as a go-to brand for daily lenses (“I’m OLOLA” series) and also offers specialty designs (like cat-eye lenses under a sub-line). With stylish branding and active social media (see @olola_official on Instagram), the company has positioned itself as a trendy, convenient choice for color contact lens enthusiasts worldwide.

10. Clalen was established in the year 2000 in South Korea.

From a startup lens brand in 2000 to a leading international name in colored contact lenses is a testament to its commitment to quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction. Founded and backed by Interojo Co., Ltd., Clalen has leveraged cutting-edge technology and meticulous manufacturing to build a brand trusted by millions.
