HELPFUL TIPS FOR PEOPLE WHO WEAR CONTACTS

If your optometrist has prescribed contact lenses for you and you’re new to the whole concept, you may find that the following article provides some answers for you. 

Do I need a prescription for contacts ?

Yes – you’ll need a prescription from the optometrist or eye-doctor for any type of contact lenses – including coloured ones which are purely cosmetic and don’t have any vision-correction requirements.

How old must children be before they can start wearing lenses?

Anyone can wear contact lenses (they’ve even been prescribed for newborn babies who may have vision problems), but your eye doctor and yourself will make a carefully considered decision about whether contacts are the right option for your particular child, depending on circumstances.

Is it possible to wear contact lenses while swimming and doing other sporting activities?

In fact, wearing contact lenses is a more stable and flexible option than ordinary glasses.  Soft lenses are best if the sport is vigorous and involves physical contact.  Swimming with goggles on is fine (but they need to seal properly) otherwise you run the risk of the contact lens floating out of the eye while in the water.  Lenses may also absorb the water from the pool causing them to stick more firmly against the eye so they may be tricky to remove – plus the chlorine in the water may cause eye irritation. 

Can my lenses ever fall out?

Contacts will stay put with normal use.  However, in abnormal conditions (which are rare), a lens can fall out eg when someone gets a knock to the head, rubs eyes very vigorously etc.

Can my contacts ever get ‘lost’ behind my eye?

No – a strong membrance called the conjunctiva prevents the lens from going behind the eye.  Lenses can get dislodged from their position and go under the eyelid, so if you have problems with this, best to see your eye specialist. 

Are lenses effective barriers against ultraviolet rays?

Some contact lenses do block some of the ultraviolet radiation, but are not totally effective. 

What is the lifespan of contact lenses?

There are three different types of contacts – hard lenses, rigid gas permeable lenses and soft lenses.  Regular contacts can be worn for anything from 12 – 24 months whilst disposable ones are effective for between two and eight weeks, but your eye-care professional will advise more accurate timespans. 

Can I sleep in my contacts ?

It depends – some contacts can be left in whilst others need to be removed before going to sleep.  It is advisable to get professional advice, say a leading supplier of contact lenses and sunglasses in Perth, Student Contact Lenses as different lenses do have different usage requirements.

I wear bifocal glasses – is it possible to get similar contact lenses?

Yes

If I have astigmatism, is it still possible to wear contacts?

Yes

The Perth professional eyecare experts, Student Contact Lenses will be able to answer any queries about lenses, sunglasses and other eye issues.
