Benefits of Extended Wear Contact Lenses
These types of contact lenses are very convenient, much more so than some of the other types. You will need to clean them properly, put them in and that’s all. You are now ready to begin your day. They need much less cleaning than other types of sot contact lenses which is a big advantage in both time and money.
Extended wear contact lenses (also known as continuous wear contact lenses) are particularly comfortable and most people, once they are inserted are unaware that they are wearing them. A few people may experience some initial discomfort but this usually goes away rapidly. They are also very safe to wear for long periods, from seven to thirty days, if looked after properly. They are designed to allow more oxygen to pass through them than other types of lenses and are made from a hydrophilic (water loving) polymeric material. One distinct advantage of this type of lens is for people who are very near sighted and really struggle to see without correction. Waking up in the morning without lenses means either struggling to the bathroom or groping for glasses until you can insert your lenses. With extended wear lenses you can sleep in them and awake with correct vision so you can see properly.
