Eyes lenses have been around for centuries, and they are one of the most important inventions in human history. They allow people to see clearly without having to wear glasses.
The first type of eyes lens is the contact lens. Contact lenses are thin pieces of plastic that fit directly over the cornea and help correct vision problems such as nearsightedness and farsightedness. Depending on what your doctor recommends, these lenses can be either soft or rigid.
Soft contact lenses are very comfortable to wear and are available in disposables, daily wear, extended wear, and gas permeable.
Rigid gas permeable (RPG) lenses provide sharper vision than soft contact lenses, but they can be uncomfortable to wear for long periods. These lenses also require a lot more care compared to other types of eyes lenses. They need to be cleaned and disinfected after each wear.
No matter which type of contact lens you choose, it is important to wear them properly and follow your doctor’s instructions. It is also important to take good care of your lenses by cleaning and disinfecting them regularly. With proper use, contact lenses can provide clear vision and improved comfort.
