just gotten my contacts...wearing it for the first time in my life...shall share on the ways to take care of ur contact lenses ( as how an optometrist should be advising their patients=)) actually i wanted dailies as i don't wish to wear them so often, but there was only weeklies available for my high myopic degree, so its take it or leave it...
advantages of wearing contact lens.
firstly there are two types of lenses available: soft lens and hard lens. most wearers prefer soft lens cause its (as the name suggests its soft).its more comfortable on the eye and feels as if there is nothing on your eyes at all. u feel comfortable wearing it and of course ...without the burden of your specs weighing on your nose bridge...therefore as an end result u will feel more self confidence and have an illusion that u actually hve perfect vision. =)
disadvantages
by wearing something so close to your cornea, you are obliged to hve good hygiene practices...so here comes the responsibility of taking care of your contacts...first, u must use saline or multipurpose soln to rub ur lenses after u hve worn them . then, u will have to change the soln in the container that stores ur lenses everytime u take out and use your lenses. throw away the container after 2 months and clean the container every 2 weeks. seems like a lot of trouble to me...but i think its good to place urself in the shoes of other lens werers to be a very caring optometrist...=) i wish myself the best wearing it in such hazy conditions. =p
-what is ur favourite colour?
