    The image shows two FreshLook ColorBlends contact lens packages, both in 'Gemstone Green' color with SPH -0.00 (plano/non-corrective). Both packages share the same LOT number (288829) and expiration date (2014-04) but have different barcodes, suggesting they are a matched pair from the same lot. The image appears to be an official U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) documentation photo, likely related to an investigation.

    With Halloween approaching, officials are warning the public about the dangers associated with counterfeit decorative contact lenses. The Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Office of Criminal Investigations (OCI), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) are working together to seize illegal and harmful versions of correctable vision lenses and decorative or color contact lenses that are illegally imported and distributed throughout the United States.

    This is a photo of counterfeit lenses.
