Kikkerland 3D Specs Contact Lens Case

The little glasses shape is a good joke for an object that usually has none. Kikkerland’s 3D Specs Contact Lens Case borrows the look of movie-theater eyewear, with your contacts tucked into the two lens compartments. For someone who wears contacts every day, that distinctive outline also helps it stand out among the ordinary pots on the bathroom counter.

It works as a daily lens case: Kikkerland describes the durable plastic body as leak-proof, and the snap lids open with a button on the back. If you’re attached to screw-top cases, you’ll have a different closure to get used to, and those lids need to be snapped shut before packing. At approximately 3.25 by 1 by 0.625 inches, it’s small enough to slip into a travel toiletry bag without demanding much room.

The plastic construction keeps expectations modest. You’re getting a useful little novelty, not a luxurious accessory, which is exactly the right scale for a stocking stuffer. Add a contact-wearing movie buff and the tiny glasses have found their audience.
