For someone who struggles with shyness or social anxieties, or just wishes to get better at meeting and connecting with people, the power of good eye contact can not be underestimated. Good eye contact is an important factor in peoples first impression of you. It can make you come across as likeable, positive, strong, confident, or shifty, creepy, insecure. Just pay attention to how you react to peoples (lack of) eye contact the next time you're out and meet people.
Whether we want our audience to buy into an idea, a vision, a product, or a service, we are selling them on something. And eye contact is a big part of that process. If you want to come off as authentic and trustworthy with your audience you need to make solid eye contact with them. And the lack thereof, will make you be perceived by your audience as inattentive and untrustworthy.
Another time when someone may wear feline eye contacts is during Halloween. Though this is only once a year, it is a holiday that some people really plan for. That said, if you are one of those people and you are dressing up like a cat then you will want to have cat eye contacts in for the big day. Keep in mind that if you are only buying the contacts to wear for a few days that they can be expensive- especially if you need a prescription. The tradeoff might not be worth it to you as the money that you will have to pay for the cat's eyes colored contacts can be substantial considering how long you will be wearing them.
A final reason why people wear cat-eye contacts is to just be different. Some people thrive on doing things that are out of the norm. Wearing non prescription cat lenses is definitely something that would be seen as a bit unusual and out of the normal. If you are a person that likes to be different by wearing cat eye contacts then you need to make sure that you are getting them from a safe place.
