Posted by sean - April 21st, 2010

In the past, regular wearers of contacts would have to endure some discomfort while enjoying the convenience of wearing such lenses. The main cause of discomfort is dryness. Hence, they are always eager to get some contacts of greatest comfort.

In fact, some contacts provided by some manufactures are not as nice as they have promised. For example, in the respect of moisture-maintaining, some wearers can not find such characteristics on these contacts as suppliers have promised. Here are some contacts that can really provide the greatest comfort for all wearers.

O2 Optix Contact, the latest products of CIBA Vision, can provide all possible comfort to its wearers, for such lens can let sufficient oxygen through. It is also a kind of one-week extended wear, and wearers can wear them whiling sleeping. Wearers have to pay $20 for each box of this contact. And some discount can also be gained if they buy more.

Additionally, Acuvue Oasys is very nice alternative in terms of comfort. It is a two-week daily wear. All wearers of this lens say that they have seldom felt any discomfort while wearing Acuvue 2 in the past years. The reason is this lens can keep lasting moisture.

Posted by sean - April 20th, 2010

As for any contact wearers, there are multiple choices for them. However, the maintenances of these contacts also depend on their types. Each type contact has its own way of maintenance. For example, there are great differences between glasses and soft contacts in their caring.

After you have prescribed a pair of contact, you should buy a set of lenses care system that can be used for cleaning and bacteria killing. The care system should match with your lenses. This is because the prescription of each people is individualized.

You may have made some mistakes for the lack of some knowledge. Such as, you may like to use mixed cleaning solution. Unfortunately, some complications will occur. Such as, scratch and distortion occurring in your eyes is very typical example. Solutions are designed for some special use, and there may be some chemical reactions if you mix different types with each other.

The eye doctors suggest that people should have some special programming in the use and maintenance of their contacts. For example, before wearing the contacts, you should clean your hands and make them dry. Then can you handle with the contacts. When cleaning the contacts, you should first place them in your hands. After that, put some solutions in our hands, but do not spray the drops directly onto the contacts.

Another way of cleaning is that you can move the lenses back and forward in the solution. Or you can also rub them with your cleaned and rinsed hands with some solution. This process should last for about half a minute, so as to ascertain that all wastes can be cleaned.

Enzyme solutions are also very effective in cleaning contact waste. But you should also pay a visit to your eye doctor for this matter. He may tell you whether your eyes will be affected by these solutions or not.

Bausch & Lomb and Its Contacts

Posted by sean - April 19th, 2010

One and a half century ago, a little glasses store was launched in Rochester. No one had ever thought that it will one day become one of the leading glasses manufacturers in the world. The company was called Bausch& Lomb, which was the combined names of its two imitators, John Jacob Bausch and Henry Lomb.

As mentioned above that no one then had ever it would one day become a leading power in the industry. Some incidental factors had made it through. The American civil war was the first event that had prompted the growth of Bausch & Lomb. The newest lenses had replaced the gold and horn. Later, some high quality lenses were required in the naval fleet equipments. And Bausch & Lomb Company had undertaken the responsibility.

Bausch & Lomb Company had made great achievements in the two world wars. And its products had taken a market ratio of over 70%. Particularly, its Ray-ban division had prompted pilot glasses. In 1970s, the company had brought its first contact lenses into the market, which was named Soflens. Later on, the soft lens became widely accepted by the massive people.

The reconstruction of the company in 1980s had made Bausch & Lomb one of the most competitive companies in the world. Especially, it had gained great competitiveness in soft lenses. What’s more, it had developed lenses for other uses.

Headquartered in Rochester, Bausch & Lomb had exerted influences over the world. With a history of over 150 years, Bausch &Lomb had great competitiveness. For example, it had established subsidiaries in over 36 countries with over 13,000 employees. Of which, soft lenses and contact care products had taken the ratio of 28% and 25% respectively. It had also prompted some eye nutrition products as well.

An Overview on Contacts

Posted by sean - April 19th, 2010

Now there are more advanced contacts than glasses mushrooming with the technological improvements in the industry. But the history of contacts is much shorter than that of glasses. The origin of contacts, however, is much older than we can imagine.

Over 500 hundred years ago, Leonardo Da Vinci, the most celebrated artist then, had systematically and theoretically studied the structure of eye. Later, another scientist, called Rene Descartes, had scored some achievements in the experiments of contact-related devices. He had devised some specially tubes that can be inserted into the eyes.

The real contacts that are the same as modern lenses do not come into being till a hundred years ago. The jelly-filled glasses are very typical examples. However, these contacts can not be worn by men at the initial stage of experiment. Later on, after timeless experiments, these contacts can be used by men, but the time is very short.

About 70 years ago, the first plastic contacts, also called PMMA lenses, come into being and great achievements have been gained in sequent years. These contacts become widely accepted by wearers around the world, but they can not be worn for over 16 hours, for they can not let oxygen through.

If contacts can not let oxygen through, eyes will be in very high risk of infection. Some designers have done a lot of work on this matter. Later, some rigid lenses that can let oxygen through are brought into the market. Not long after that, silicon hydrogels are produced. They are representatives of soft oxygen-penetrating contacts.

Nowadays, contacts are no long luxury goods and many common people can afford them. Especially, online purchasing has greatly reduced the cost of these lenses. People now tend to buy these contacts through clicking their mousse. Hence, it is very common to see that a large number of people choose to buy them online.

Particularly, in order to protect the rights of contacts wearers, the government has passed Opticians Act. Since then, wearers can enjoy all happiness of buying contacts.

If Your Children Want A shift From Glasses To Contacts

Posted by sean - April 16th, 2010

Usually, teenagers start firstly wear eyeglasses when they find they are shortsighted. With the advance of age, some of them may find wearing eyeglasses is inconvenient and make them like nerds, and idea of a shift to contact lenses occurs to them. If your child is among one of those who want to change to wear contact lenses, there are some notices you have to make sense of:

Put on lenses with clean, dry hands.

When taking them off, store lenses in a clean case filled with chemicals.

Try not to wear contacts on successive days without taking off, and it is advised to wear contacts for 8 hours a day at most.

Those above tips are required to be observed strictly, or eye infections, either mild or serious will be caused.

In light of the particularity of teenagers — being more careless, they are recommended wear disposable contacts which are thought to be better, for the reason that disposable contact lenses, compared with other kinds of contacts, are less troublesome.

The wearers are more able to be provided a comfortable day and reduce possible eye infections. Since disposable contacts are just worn for certain period of time, from merely one day to four weeks, the amount of protein built on the lenses, which does how to eyes, can be reduced. It is researched that people using disposable contacts are less possible to suffer from eye irritation and discomfort, thus the disposable contacts wearer can more possible to enjoy comfort everyday. This is especially suitable for teenagers who use their eyes often.

Steps for cleaning are greatly cut down. Again, due to the short timeframe of wearing, cleaning and sanitizing steps are not so frequently and strictly required as conventional contact lenses. Thus you can not concern so greatly on whether your children keep with the necessary cleaning regimen for their contacts, as long as they discard their lenses as instructed by eye care practitioner.

In the long run, disposable contacts are more cost efficient than most of customer think. To outward seeming, changing lenses so frequently asks for a great deal of money, but if you take your possible fees paid on eye infections and good chemicals into account, you will find that as a matter of fact, conventional contact lenses are more expensive. In addition, using disposable contacts, much time will be saved, and we all know that time is money.

In conclusion, if your children are ready to make a shift from glasses to contacts, disposable should be their best choices; if you think that conventional contacts are fine, you are required to help your children make a sense of relative instructions.

1 Day Acuvue-My Beloved Contacts

Posted by sean - February 25th, 2010

Several years ago, I discovered 1Day Acuvue contacts and I had worn them since then. Now I have never felt any discomfort from these contacts, manufactured by Johnson& Johnson. I think I will use these products in all rest of my life.

It is true that I seldom spend time in searching of some new contacts, but I do have suffered from some discomfort in wearing other lenses. Luckily, when I begin to use 1 Day Acuvue, what I feel is freshness, comfort, and happiness. Even though I have changed so many pairs, my feeling does not change.

It is true that I have to dispose a pair of such contact everyday. I have spent a very long time to get used to this occasion. But I think it is essential to do so for the following reasons.

Wearing these contacts will cause no infection in my eyes. Of courses, as their names indicate, I need not to maintain these contacts every day. What I can do is to get a new pair and throw the older one away.

These contacts have very long expiration time if I do not open and use them.

In addition to 1day Avuvue, Acuvue Moist has also provided me with great comfort and freshness. Compared with 1Day, Moist Series can keep much longer comfort and freshness.

Of course, the moist series are ideal for people with dry eyes. Any way, 1 Day acuvue is price to value. Though it seems that these contacts are expensive, but no cleaning systems are needed. That has relatively reduced the cost.

Contacts Can Not Help Improve People’s Vision

Posted by sean - February 25th, 2010

You might be confused about whether contact lenses can help to correct your vision. In fact, vision can not be corrected by wearing contacts. To some extent, contacts are only aiding tools, which can not enhance your vision at all. Hence, the way for your eye enhancement is not wearing contacts. Contacts can only bring to the wearers some very contemporary effectiveness. Neither can they fundamentally improve your vision. If you do not think so, just think how long you have worn contacts. If they really work, you should have got rid of them.

One example can be used to prove this theory. Suppose one has broken his legs, and the doctor will no doubt just handle his problem simply, as putting aid brand only, etc.  If that really occurs, his legs will be in abnormal shape after being healed. This may lead some new bad habits in his walking. If the doctor treats his problem properly, his legs will recover normally. Comparatively, contacts just play roles of guiding eyes in their recovering. In this sense, contacts can not improve your vision naturally.

Generally, if you suffer from vision problems, it means that you have very bad habits in using eyes. Wearing contacts can help to correct such habits by guiding your body to heal themselves automatically. By and large, the major cause for eye problems is mental strain. Contacts can help you first to relax yourself. Because of this strain your eyes may get smaller, and you are prone to even worse eye problems.

Now that you have known this, you are suggested to use contacts as less as possible. If you do some eye exercises everyday, you will get rid of these contacts ultimately. It is a fair exchange for you to do some eye exercises for several minutes other than wearing contacts forever. You may now have your own decisions. Yes, it is the time for you to get rid of these bothering contacts.
