Is Your Apprehension Warranted?
It’s a pretty wonderful thing to live in an age where we have so many options with our vision care. The two most common forms of corrective vision care are, of course, glasses and contact lenses. Nearly all contact lens users have a pair of corrective glasses to use when their contacts are unavailable, but many wearers of glasses may feel apprehensive about the prospect of switching to contacts, asking themselves, “Should I get contact lenses?”
This is of course a question that is going to have a different answer for different people, so let’s take a look at some of the advantages and disadvantages that contact lenses present so that you can make an informed decision about whether or not they are right for you.
Advantages of Contact Lenses
Disadvantages of Contact Lenses
Early contact lenses had a lot more disadvantages than modern, soft, air-permeable contacts. Modern contacts are comparatively a breeze to wear. There are many more advantages available, too, like bifocal and colored contacts.
Ultimately, the decision to wear contact lenses is up to you. They provide great opportunities for people to gain more autonomy over their personal appearance and allow folks who have vision problems to lead healthy, active lives more comfortably with more natural vision. That being said, they present greater health risks than glasses and should be treated with an elevated awareness of cleanliness.
If you’re still having trouble deciding whether or not contacts are right for you, don’t hesitate to contact us. We’re happy to walk you through the decision step-by-step and find the solution that works best for you!
