8.6 Base Curve Contacts – The Standard of Comfort in Korean Color Lenses

When it comes to finding the perfect contact lens, the base curve (BC) is a crucial factor in ensuring comfort, fit, and long-lasting wearability. At KPOP2, we offer a premium selection of Korean-made colored contact lenses with an 8.6mm base curve—the industry’s most common and universally comfortable lens curvature.

Designed to suit a wide range of eye shapes and sizes, our 8.6 base curve lenses combine the best of fit, function, and fashion. Whether you're wearing contacts for cosmetic enhancement, prescription correction, or both, these lenses offer the ideal balance of secure placement and eye-friendly curvature.


👁 What Is a Base Curve (BC) and Why 8.6mm?

The base curve refers to the curvature of the back surface of a contact lens, designed to match the natural curve of your cornea. A proper base curve ensures:

  • ✅ Stable lens fit without sliding or shifting

  • ✅ Reduced friction between eyelid and lens

  • ✅ Optimal tear flow and oxygen exchange

  • ✅ Comfortable wear, even for long hours

  • ✅ Better lens centering for clearer vision

8.6mm is the most widely accepted base curve, suitable for the majority of eye shapes—making it the go-to choice for first-time and long-time lens wearers.
