Congratulations, you have contact lenses for the first time! Now what?
It’s time to learn how to put them in and take them out—safely.
Putting something in your eye for the first time is frightening. This guide shares tricks of the trade for easy handling and a comfortable first-time experience.
When learning to insert and remove contact lenses, slow and steady wins the race. Before long, with a good routine and a bit of practice it should become as easy as brushing your teeth.
If you once wore glasses but have switched to contact lenses, you know the freedom that comes with making the switch. You’re able to exercise and participate in a number of other activities without having to worry about not being able to see clearly or breaking your glasses.
But could it be possible that wearing contact lenses hinders your safety or eyesight?
We’d like to say no, but research confirms that to be true. That is, when you misuse or do not wear your contacts exactly as directed, there are risks.
Want to change your look? Sure, you can change your hairstyle or clothes, but an easy, fun and temporary way to reinvent yourself is to change your eye color with colored contact lenses.
You can match your eye color to your outfit or mood and rock any occasion. Take your pick… smoldering deep brown eyes, sparkly sky-blue eyes, mysterious smoky grey eyes. Colored contacts offer a lot of looks.
If you’re curious about color contact lenses, perhaps you’ll find some of the information I’ll offer here “eye-opening.”
Remember the first time you put your contact lenses in? Ahh… love at first sight, right? You could suddenly see fabulously and felt great about not having to depend on glasses.
But something’s changed, that is, your vision. Your contact lenses no longer provide the correction you need to clearly see objects both near and far. Chances are, you’re now dealing with presbyopia, a declining ability to focus on close-up objects. When trying to read something with small type—say a restaurant menu, food package, or phone—you begin by stretching your arm further away to focus.
Presbyopia is an inevitable (but unenviable) change you’re bound to begin noticing sometime in your 40s.
Not so long ago, you had only one option to correct the problem: reading glasses. Today, you do have options. So, if you favor contacts, you need not get discouraged and trade them in for glasses.
Today, a range of contact lens options are available that deliver vision correction for different focal lengths.
One-fifth of contact lenses buyers in the United States—and rising—now buy their contact lenses online, according to All About Vision. Of course, price and convenience both factor into the continued escalation of online purchases.
Though the choices are many, the process of buying your contacts online need not be confusing. Your prescription provides all the information you need.
Let’s look at the different types of contact lenses and how to order them properly.
