“美瞳”英語怎麼說

摘要:戴上一副或藍色或灰色的彩色隱形眼鏡，或者是一副讓黑眼珠看着更黑更大的“美瞳”，都被時下愛美美眉們認爲是爲美眼加分的利器。你知道怎麼用英語表達嗎?

It is 2:30 pm on a Wednesday. Xidan, one of Beijing's largest shopping areas, is swamped with trendy adolescents and 20-somethings all looking for the latest fashion in shoes, clothes and accessories at bargain prices.

Many of them are especially in the hunt for cosmetic contact lenses, a craze that made it to the mainland a few years ago.

The lenses are popular because they enhance the color of the iris, making the eye appear brighter or larger, and in some cases entirely changing its color.

週三下午兩點半，在北京最大的購物中心西單擠滿了追求時尚的青少年和二十多歲的年輕人，他們在淘既潮又便宜的鞋子、衣服和飾品。

一些人特別想要淘到最近幾年在大陸風行的美瞳。

這些隱形眼鏡很流行，因爲它們會讓眼球變大，讓眼睛看上起更大更明亮，有的還會改變眼睛的顏色。

　　【講解】

　文中的“cosmetic contact lenses”就是“美瞳”的意思，即彩色隱形眼鏡。“contact lenses”是指“隱形眼鏡”。“cosmetic”作名詞是指“化妝品”，作形容詞是指“美容的，化妝用的”。“彩色隱形眼鏡”還可以說“colored contact lenses”，或者簡稱爲“colored lenses”。
