When it comes to vision correction, the question that most people have to answer is whether to choose glasses or contacts. There are pros and cons to both choices. At Eye 1st Vision Center in Sandy Springs, our optometrists can help you decide which choice is better for you and your lifestyle.
The answer to this question depends on your circumstances and preferences. Contact lenses are considered more attractive to wear, by many people. However, these lenses need to be removed every night and put back in every morning. For some, this is more of a burden than they are prepared to take on. Yet, others prefer contact lenses because they are more difficult to lose than a pair of eyeglasses and less likely to get broken. You may also prefer them over the alternative because eyeglasses need to be cleaned frequently. Also, a pair of glasses can be expensive to replace if you lose or break them.
From a medical standpoint, glasses are a better option if you suffer from dry eye syndrome or you simply have sensitive eyes. This is a common condition that can be made worse by wearing lenses as opposed to glasses. Otherwise, you may prefer contact lenses because you can have them customized to accommodate the natural curvature of your eyes. One of the biggest advantages of wearing contact lenses is that they can be made specifically to accommodate certain eye conditions which may make it impossible to wear them otherwise.
