Advantages of Contact Lenses
There are lots of benefits to wearing contact lenses…
- An alternative to glasses: you may feel more confident, show off your eyes and have the freedom to wear different coloured clothes every day without worrying what matches the colour of your spectacles. If you wish, you can still wear make-up with contact lenses and what’s more, contact lenses won’t steam up, smudge or fall off!
- Safe and hygienic for sports: Soft contact lenses can’t get hit and break like a pair of spectacles can, making them ideal for sports.
- Distortion free vision: As your eyes move, your lenses move with them, giving you the best correction at all times.
- Correcting high/complex prescriptions: No more thick lenses and heavy glasses! Specialist contact lenses can be made to order to suit your specific requirements. If you have astigmatism, where more than one power is needed in the same eye, a wide range of toric lenses are now available.
- Open up your career options: If a helmet or protective visor must be worn, glasses can be a nuisance but contact lenses won’t get in the way.
