Stephen Boehm
Stephen Kernahan had contact lenses. There was a state game, 1994 v Victoria I think, where he actually lost a lense during a game.

Bob Bradtke (father of Mark) sometimes played in glasses when rucking for the roosters in the late 1960s

Can't think of any?
Except for one kid in my under-15s team.
He took to wearing goggles.
Opposition players naturally called him Kareem...
