A little while ago I created a post about my history with glasses and I thought I would share with you my experience with contact lenses. I've only been wearing lenses "everyday" for a whole year (well in April it was a year!) So what have I learnt with lenses?
The breakdown
I changed to a high end optician and was able to wear lenses 6/7 days a week and they have up to two weeks wear in them!
I currently wear Acuvue lenses and have special solution to put them in overnight before the next day.
Putting them in...
I struggled a lot with the steps that the optician gave me, a lot of flinching occurred and it took me a while to get the lenses in every morning. So I searched around on the internet and found this handy little video:
Cleaning them
The overall experience
And the lenses don't feel like they're in my eye. I have fallen asleep in them, they haven't fallen to the back of my eye and my eyesight has got better! There's so many myths about contact lenses, and they're all so wrong. I definitely recommend researching into lenses before getting them!
See you in the next blog post,
