Hmm... The Human seems to wonder more and more about eyewear nowadays, always pausing at optical shops, especially to look at contact lenses. He must be getting vain.
But these contact lenses, what difference does it make from using spectacles? It seemed like quite a cool idea at first, that I could be sure to have correct vision at all times and in a wider range, when the lenses are placed on my cornea - instead of further away, when I have to see through the glasses, and everything outside that range is blur! But in most cases I don't use the extreme ranges...what is a contact lens good for, exactly?
Luckily for me, the Human decided to find out more.
There are a few advantages and some kinds of eyes would like contacts better. The vain ladies (or even guys!) may want to look good, while the sporty would prefer contacts that would not drop off and various other reasons. Also, it is good in wet weather, generally. It wouldn't fog up or get covered in raindrops to blur my vision!
But here comes the scary part. Many various complications can arise from wearing these contact lenses, and about 4% of the eye-users of these lenses get them every year! These usually arise due to excessive wear, overnight wear and more: ending up hurting the Eyelids, the Conjunctiva, Cornea, and even the tear film of eyes.
Insertion, Removal and Care for contact lenses are 3 important processes, and if one is not careful and meticulous; the eye might just be hurt or infected by harmful micro-organisms! By things that the eye cannot see! That's the most scary part.
If I could, I would tell the Human to forget about those contact lenses. I definitely wouldn't want to take the risks!
