In an article by Whitney
Coy published on sheknows.com on “which
type of contact lens is right for your eye?”, she gives some basic
information about different types of contact lenses. So before you head off to
your appointment with an
Independent Doctor of Optometry, you should learn about the different types
of lenses.
The three types of contact lenses are:
· Hard contact lenses: They’re made of a
firm, durable plastic that lets oxygen pass through to your eyes.
· Soft contact lenses: Soft lenses are
made of soft, very flexible plastic. They are usually oxygen-permeable as well.
· Extended-wear lenses: Extended-wear
lenses are usually available in soft or hard lenses, and are meant to be worn
for long periods of time without removal.
The contacts that are right for you have
a lot to do with the health of your eye, your lifestyle and the amount of
maintenance you can deal with.
Deciding
between contact lenses and glasses may seem like an easy choice. Contact
lenses may be a great option for those who don’t want to deal with glasses.
There are many types to choose from, so make sure you’re getting the ones that
work best for your eyes and your life.
