If you have a vision problem — nearsightedness, farsightedness, presbyopia
or an astigmatism — contact lenses may be the ideal solution for you. You can
even choose contacts that provide progressive vision correction. Your doctor
can help you make the right choice for your specific needs.
OK. Some people like the way they look
in glasses. If you’re not one of them, then
contacts are right for you. And you can
forget about the hassles of caring for and
keeping track of eye glasses. Some people
even get colored or theatrical lenses just
to give themselves a new look.
People who play sports or lead active lives are naturals for contact lenses.
There’s no worry about glasses falling off, fogging up, or getting scratched or
dented. Contacts also make it possible to wear nonprescription sunglasses,
eliminating the need to carry multiple pairs of glasses.
