Contact Lenses
Overview
For those new to contact lenses, many questions naturally arise: Are lenses suitable for me? How do I wear them? How do I clean them? These are just a few of the common concerns. If you're considering contact lenses, your first step should be a visit to an ophthalmologist, a specialist who can thoroughly assess your eyesight and prescribe the perfect lenses for you. They will guide you on the usage, replacement, cleaning, and protection of your lenses.
Wearing Contact Lenses
When trying contact lenses for the first time, it's normal to wonder how to determine the correct side for wearing them. Some lenses have a laser imprint for guidance, but if yours don’t, here’s a simple method:
1. Hand Hygiene: Always wash your hands thoroughly before handling your lenses to prevent harmful deposits.
2. Placement: Place the lens on your fingertip. If it forms a U shape with the edges flaring out, it’s inside out. Simply flip it.
Wearing a lens inside out won’t harm your eyes, but it may be uncomfortable. The correct orientation is a simple U shape without any flared edges.
Types of Contact Lenses
There is a broad range of contact lenses available, and choosing the right one can be daunting. Lenses can be categorized by wearability, replacement schedule, and composition:
- Composition:
- Soft Lenses: These contain 25% to 80% water, making them easy to adapt to and comfortable. However, they’re less durable than other types.
- Rigid Gas Permeable Lenses (RGP): More durable, these lenses may provide better vision than soft lenses. However, they require more time to get used to and are generally more expensive, but they can last for several years.
- Wear and Replacement:
- Soft Lenses: Available for daily, weekly, monthly, or annual replacement.
- Extended Wear Lenses: Can be worn overnight.
- Daily Wear Lenses: Should be removed before sleeping.
In summary, while choosing contact lenses, it’s essential to consider your lifestyle, comfort, and eye health. Always follow the advice of your ophthalmologist to ensure optimal eye care and vision correction.
