Is it okay to wear contact lenses?

Nowadays people use mobile phones and computers every day. These are very harmful to the eyes. Many people do not pay attention to their posture when using the screen, including the distance between the eyes, which leads to various eye problems. Of course, this also includes myopia. Nowadays, more and more people are suffering from myopia, but many women are unwilling to wear glasses. The reason is that I feel I don’t look good after wearing glasses. And many people don't want others to know that they are nearsighted.

This is how contact lenses came about. Contact lenses are glasses that fit inside your eyes. This type of contact lens does not require a frame, and once installed, it is invisible to the public, so it is called contact lenses. It is precisely because it is invisible after installation and does not require wearing frames that many people like it very much. Especially female friends. But while contact lenses are popular, they also cause a lot of controversy. Especially for wearing contact lenses, is it really good? This controversy has always existed.

Many things have two sides, good and bad. The same is true for wearing contact lenses, which has both good and bad sides. Friends who wear frame glasses for a long time may find that their eyes are gradually deformed. Their originally bright and lively eyes become dull or even sunken. This is a headache for many friends.

But this is usually not a problem when wearing contact lenses. Wearing contact lenses can make your eyes look naturally bright and lively, helping to increase your personal confidence. Moreover, because contact lenses are directly attached to the eyes, they are not limited by the range of frame glasses lenses, so the field of vision is wider and more natural, and the vision is clearer.

However, wearing contact lenses also has many limitations. Wearing contact lenses for a long time may cause the eyes' resistance to decrease. The cornea also needs to breathe. Even the highest oxygen permeable contact lenses will prevent the cornea from contacting the air normally, which will have a certain impact on corneal breathing. The eyes may experience a condition similar to the human body's "altitude sickness" due to lack of oxygen, resulting in an inability to metabolize normally and a decrease in resistance.

Wearing contact lenses for a long time may also cause visual fatigue and dry eyes. Wearing contact lenses for a long time can easily cause visual fatigue and even dry eyes. Contact lenses absorb proteins, lipids, collagen, etc. in tears, causing them to deposit on the surface of the lens, breeding bacteria, causing corneal edema, corneal neovascularization and allergic reactions, and causing eye allergies. Contact lenses wear out the cornea and cause certain damage to it.

The concavity of some contact lenses does not match the convexity of the cornea, which can cause irregular abrasion of the cornea and may cause corneal ulcers. Wearing contact lenses for a long time may cause optic nerve paralysis. If contact lenses are kept attached to the eyeball for a long time, they will paralyze the nerve endings and cause decreased corneal sensation. Many patients are unaware that they have ulcerative keratitis. If the lenses are not cleaned and disinfected properly, infection may occur.

These are all disadvantages of wearing contact lenses. Of course, the above-mentioned disadvantages of wearing contact lenses are just disadvantages, which does not mean they are absolutely bad. In daily use, you must pay attention to the correct care of contact lenses. Contact lenses must be kept clean and avoid bacterial contamination. Try not to wear contact lenses more than 8 hours a day and do not wear them overnight.

It is best to prepare a pair of frame glasses and use them alternately with contact lenses. It is best not to wear contact lenses for two days a week to give the corneal epithelium some time to repair itself. It is also necessary to be careful when replacing contact lenses, and they should be replaced regularly according to the service life of each contact lens.

If you pay attention to wearing contact lenses in a healthy and scientific way, you can still gain beauty and health at the same time.

In fact, no matter what kind of glasses we wear, protecting our eyes is the most important thing. Therefore, we must develop good habits in our daily life. Of course, just because you have glasses, you can't be more unscrupulous and do things that hurt your eyes. If your eye power worsens as a result, you will always be dependent on glasses for myopia.
