CooperVision Contact Lenses

Contact lenses are thin, curved lenses placed on the eye's surface to correct vision. They offer an alternative to glasses and can be used for various vision issues such as myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Benefits include a wider field of view and the ability to participate in physical activities without glasses.

Choosing the right contact lenses is crucial for comfort and eye health. Consider factors like lens type (daily, weekly, monthly), material (soft or rigid), and your lifestyle needs. Consultation with an optometrist is essential to determine the best fit for your eyes and vision requirements.

Contact lenses can correct astigmatism using toric lenses designed for this purpose. These lenses have different powers in different meridians to correct the uneven curvature of the cornea or lens inside the eye. Consult an optometrist to find the right toric lens that suits your specific needs.

Caring for contact lenses involves cleaning, rinsing, and storing them properly in a disinfecting solution if they are reusable. Daily disposables require no cleaning but must be discarded after use. Always follow instructions provided by your optometrist or lens manufacturer to maintain optimal eye health.

If a contact lens feels uncomfortable, remove it immediately and inspect it for damage or debris. Rinse it with solution before reinserting. Persistent discomfort may indicate an issue requiring professional evaluation. Schedule a visit with your optometrist if discomfort continues or if you experience redness or irritation.
