Glasses and contact lenses make a great team
Enjoy life with great vision like never before!
Glasses and contact lenses make a great team. Whether you're at work, playing sports, or on a special night out, contact lenses give you the comfort and sharp vision you need. Glasses are a great solution for many situations as well, like working from home or air travel.
Still wondering of contact lenses are a good choice for you?
Check out our Q&A!
Q1 – Are contact lenses safe to wear?
A: Wearing contact lenses is safe. Consult your eye care professional and follow their recommendations and care guidelines for contact lenses; wearing contact lenses will be comfortable and safe.
Q2 – How long can I wear contact lenses?
A: Modern contact lenses are made from materials that allow more oxygen to pass through. They can be worn every day, from morning until late evening—or during the time you need.
Q3 – Are contact lenses comfortable?
A: Alcon's DAILIES TOTAL1™ and PRECISION1™ contacts contain over 80% water at the surface and allow excellent oxygen transmissibility. This makes them so comfortable that they can be worn from morning until late evening.
Q4 – Is it difficult to put in and remove lenses?
A: Your eye care professional will explain how to put on and remove the lenses as well as how to take care of them. You just need a little practice!
Q5 – Can contact lenses get lost in the eye?
A: The human eye is structured in a way that a contact lens cannot get lost in the eye or behind it. Even if the lens shifts from the cornea, it will end up in the "pocket" formed by the upper or lower eyelid, from where it can be retrieved.
