The wide variety of Contact Lenses that are now available means that almost anyone who would normally need to wear glasses can now wear Contact Lenses instead. There are a number of benefits that Contact Lenses have over glasses, here are just a few to convince you that Contact Lenses are the better option: Contact lenses obviously have no frames so they provide clear all-round vision, unlike glasses which also have poor side vision. Contact lenses are therefore much better for driving than glasses. Glasses can be fairly weighty on your nose and ears whereas contact lenses have no weight and are not always needing to be pushed back up like glasses do. Contact lenses do not fog up with changes in temperature like glasses do. This can be especially annoying when opening the oven or in a steamy bathroom. If you wear eyeglasses then you need prescription sunglasses whereas with contact lenses you can wear any sunglasses that take your fancy. Contact lenses don't give you problems with blurred vision in the rain or snow as glasses can do. This is because the water does not collect on your contact lenses. A few things to watch out for when wearing Contact Lenses. Dont try to put them in after chopping chillies...seriously I did this and lived to regret my stupidity for a good few hours of eye watering pain!!! When tired try not to rub your eyes too hard with your lenses in them as this can result in them folding over and again watery eyes can result and yes I have done this aswell! One important thing to note is that however hard you try your lenses will not disappear round the back of your eye!! |
