Football World Cup special contact lenses
We’ve filed these bizarre contact lenses under “Football Gadgets”. They’re certainly striking – if you’ll pardon the football pun!
These cool-looking contact lenses were manufactured by a German optician, Stephanie Berndt, to celebrate the forthcoming football World Cup.
Our sports coach always used to shout; “Keep your eye on the ball!” but with these lenses it’s more a case of “Keep the ball on your eye”.
The contact lenses, modelled here by Stefanie herself, are available for just $54 (including another pair with an image of the German flag). The only problem for me is that my eyes tested OK at the last appointment, so I guess I can’t wear them for this World Cup. Another thing’s at the back of my mind: can you actually see properly when you’re wearing them?
Unfortunately, Stefanie doesn’t have a website at this time, so you’ll have to pop over to Munich in person to get hold of the set. I’m sure there’ll be a big queue this summer.

LOL I don’t know much about contact lenses. I’m sure they must be safe if they’re designed by an optician.

[...] Früher oder später merken es alle: Youtube ist super. Das umfangreiche Videoportal bringt nämlich nicht nur lustige Filmchen, sondern auch Freude für Fußballeraugen (vermutlich nur so lange wie es die Fifa nicht merkt): das beste Tor-Archiv zur Fußball-WM. [...]

I just love these. They are so cool and I like the fact that you can still see the iris of the eye.

“Football Gadgets” Cool contact lenses – Are you sure these are safe and recommended by opticians?

There are plenty of these ‘fun’ contact lens designs around, but this has to be one of the worst! Frankly they look scary. The subtle lenses that change eye colour can be nice, if done properly, but these are, well, garish.
Ugh!
