Why are eye patches almost always black (cup as well as strap)? Obviously, a patch is nothing to be ashamed of. HOWEVER, it's also not necessarily something you want to jump out at people as the first thing they notice about you! I must admit, it's hard not to inadvertantly stare at a big black patch -- it's just stands out so starkly! I've even seen young kids act AFRAID of people with black eye patches, sadly. :(
Why aren't more patch/strap sets produced in beige (for folks of Caucasian or lighter Asian descent) or brownish (for folks of African, Indian or darker Hispanic descent)?? I actually HAVE SEEN patches in beige, and they were so 'discreet' that I almost didn't even notice at first! They looked so good! :) I just don't understand why more folks don't use such patch/strap sets? Do they enjoy being stared at? Do they enjoy scaring little kids? I'd think NOT. Or perhaps the problem is that such patches aren't readily available -- and if that's the case, why not?
