Spectacles are the most common means for correcting vision. There are drawbacks to wearing them though. Some people find them uncomfortable because they place pressure on the temples or behind the ears. Others do not like spectacles because they feel it detracts from their appearance or makes them look old. Spectacles also cloud over in wet weather and generally limit a person's field of vision. For these and many other reasons, many people prefer to wear contact lenses.

With the newer advances, lenses are actually placed on the eye and many people can't even tell they are there. This allows for a greater range of sight. They will not fog up like glasses do. They weigh hardly anything and for the most part are quite comfortable.

Contact lenses come in either a soft or rigid format and are substitutes for spectacles. Eye doctors use special ones to correct eye disorders. The therapeutic kind can also be used to protect eyes following surgical procedures. There are different types of products in this line. Some have a longer lifespan than others. One available type is the disposable kind that are discarded after a single use. Other varieties can last many months when used correctly.

One of the most popular reasons for wearing these contact lens is the fact that they come in a variety of colors. This can cause a dramatic change in a person's appearance. At the same time there can be the effect of a personality change to the wearer.

There are many dramatic as well as subdued colors and shades to choose from. The user can change her existing eye color to various shades of blue, green, hazel or violet. This color change lasts as long as the lens is in the eye and can be very effective in fashion photography, film making as well as on the modelling ramp. The tinted ones can be supplied with or without vision correction.

Contacts were expensive novelties when they first appeared on the market. Advances in research and production techniques have brought the costs down so that most people find them affordable. Almost anyone who wants to try these out can manage the price tag. Discounted ones for all uses have flooded the market. These soft lenses are equally as effective as their expensive counterparts in changing appearance or assisting vision.

Discounted lenses are also readily available to online shoppers. The price difference can be a very pleasant surprise. It gets even better if you order in bulk. Many online companies offer a third pair free if you place an order for two pairs.

When using contact lenses regularly or as a once off it is very important to use correct hygiene procedures. You should protect your eyes at all times. The introduction of the smallest dust particle to the eye can disturb normal vision and irritate it. You may end up rubbing your eye and causing damage.
