What are contact lenses?

Facebook Twitter

Contact lenses are small, thin lenses that are placed directly on the eye's surface to correct vision problems or to enhance the appearance of the eye. They are typically made of a soft, flexible plastic material that is designed to conform to the shape of the eye.

Some contact lenses may also be made of rigid gas-permeable materials that allow more oxygen to pass through to the eye.

Contact lenses work by refracting light as it enters the eye, correcting any refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. They can also be used to change the colour or appearance of the eye. Contact lenses are a popular alternative to eyeglasses for many people because they provide more natural vision correction and do not interfere with activities such as sports or other physical activities. However, contact lenses do require proper care and maintenance to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
