# Stick On Eyes Fall Asleep, Look Awake By Bianca | Published 2008-02-16 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stick-on-eyes References: [gizmodo](http://gizmodo.com/356627/eyelid-stickers-let-you-sleep-at-work-if-your-coworkers-are-blind-idiots) Now you can fall asleep at work without getting caught... as long as your boss is far enough away. These stick-on eyes come on sheets with several dozen pairs, so you won't have to worry wasting them on a quick power nap after lunch. It's also a great solution public sleeping fears. If you're at the airport between flights but are afraid of dozing off in case someone takes your bags, just pop a pair of these on your lids and no one would dare snipe your possessions. The more I look at these images, the creepier they look. The eyes look incredible real, yet not in a human way. Too bad no one knows where they came from. By the look of it, they only come in a one version with an oriental shape and dark brown colouring. Someone could score big time if they offered these in a variety of colours. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Bizarre](https://www.trendhunter.com/bizarre) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Stick-on Eyes:** An emerging trend in novelty sleep aids, stick-on eyes provide a discreet way to sleep or rest in public settings. - **Public Sleeping Solutions:** The fear of dozing off in public spaces is addressed by the use of stick-on eyes, providing a sense of security and warding off potential threats. - **Customized Stick-on Eyes:** A potential disruptive innovation opportunity lies in offering stick-on eyes in a variety of shapes and colors to cater to individual preferences and market demands. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Sleep Aid Industry:** The stick-on eyes trend presents an opportunity for companies in the sleep aid industry to introduce innovative products that offer discreet and effective sleep solutions. - **Security Industry:** The use of stick-on eyes as a public sleeping solution highlights a potential market for the security industry to develop products that enhance personal safety and asset protection in public spaces. - **Novelty Product Market:** The demand for stick-on eyes could create new opportunities in the novelty product market, particularly through the introduction of customized stick-on eyes in various shapes and colors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Eyelash-Friendly Sleep Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eyelash-protecting-eye-masks.md) - [Buttery Under-Eye Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reusable-eye-masks.md) - [Blackout Napping Hoodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cabeau.md) - [Soothing Single-Use Eye Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/warm-eye-masks.md) - [Deep Sleep Patches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sleep-patches.md) - [Face-First Flight Rest Aids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rest-aid.md) - [Weighted Eye Masks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weighted-eye-mask.md) - [Cooling Undereye Patches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cooling-undereye-patches.md) - [Sleep Support Nose Strips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knocked-nose-strips.md)
