Say hello to coloured contacts Australia!
It all seemed to start out as a bit of a fun fad. And it was fun but did anyone really think it would kick on and just go from strength to strength?
Oh yeah, sure you did Darren!
Pffft! You must play lead guitar on the band wagon.
It wasn’t a slow start once coloured contacts hit Down Under. We all loved the looks you could get.
Why putting in coloured contacts in Australia has taken off!
They’re naturally captivating. They can be full-on hypnotic with the right colour. I’m not talking about the super freak-out lenses here. Not those vampire vixen ones or raging Hulk Halloween lenses that make heads turn.
I’m talking simple coloured contacts Australia!
It’s usually the natural coloured contacts with something special about them. They kind of sneak up on you with a sweet surprise.
You know, when your friend suddenly turns up with striking ice blue eyes or her chocolate brown eyes are now an emerald green – and it’s you who makes a scene, with ‘Omigod!!” or just a happy scream. (Sorry Sam – I was a little loud, but you were a total awesomeness / gorgeousness combo)
It’s no wonder anyone and everyone can be mesmerized by these little wonders.
It wasn’t always so easy to get coloured contacts.
When it came to getting coloured contacts, Australia was quick to get on the moving train.
A little back story
Contact lenses started off as a medical thing that people wore to correct vision. Okay, sometimes they wore them for cosmetic reasons. Don’t be so Judge Judy.
Some wore them for confidence.
Remember that kid who used to tease anyone wearing glasses with “Hey four eyes!” And that brat -called Darren or Jordan, (they always have a name like that and they couldn’t count past four) anyway, they spoiled it for anyone wearing glasses. They were totally embarrassed about wearing their specs. Of course they were going to go crazy for contact lenses and it was happening right around the globe.
In 2004, (I know, yonks ago) they estimated that 125 million people worldwide wore contact lenses, including a huge chunk in the United States.
Instead of having to wear glasses (or spectacles as Nan used to call them) people could wear contact lenses. Contacts gave you a wider view (peripheral or something, I skipped maths and physics). And you didn’t get rain or sweat in your eyes either. This is great when you’re playing sport or just enjoying the outdoors – I love the beach and camping, so there, I’m one of them.
I read somewhere that wearing contacts is better than wearing glasses for conditions like keratoconus and aniseikonia. Not sure, but I think they were two Greek girls who I went to Kinder with. They had beautiful eyes and the best lunches. I think their Gran made their food. I had one of their twirly little biscuit things and it was super delish… Ummm… Where was I?
Oh yeah, I was talking about coloured contacts Australia.
As of 2010, the average age of contact lens wearers around the world was 31 years old (like, almost ancient) and two-thirds of them were female.
So, it’s ‘young’ women who love wearing contacts. Going for a world-record of Durrrh!?
Now for some Wow
These days, (like a century later), even more people are going down the road of contact lenses. But it all went Boom!, with the break-through of coloured contacts.
Hootchie Gucci Mamarucci! Looking good and looking great just became a whole lot easier.
First it was just people who needed to wear glasses who could get a pair of coloured contacts. The rest of us were all green with envy. That’s when contact makers woke up to the fact that there was a huuuuge market for coloured contacts that were – wait for it! – non-prescription.
Umm, get behind me because there’s a thing called a queue!
It went ballistic, especially with coloured contacts in Australia. You couldn’t hit any party without bumping into someone in coloured contacts.
As the range got bigger and better, so did the choice and we went nuts for the colours on offer.
