How to Select the Right Pr of Contact Lenses
When choosing contact lenses, several factors need consideration, including your eye usage patterns, prescription needs, corneal curvature, and overall eye health. Our team at Evershine Optical is here to guide you through this decision process.
Types of Contact Lenses
Contact lenses come in two primary types: soft lenses and rigid gas-permeable RGP lenses. Soft contact lenses are the more common choice due to their ease of use, but if your eye conditions make them unsuitablesuch as dry eyes, high prescriptions, or vision issuesyou may be recommed RGP lenses instead.
The illustration below demonstrates a comparison between soft and RGP lenses: soft ones appear larger and softer, while RGP lenses are smaller in size and more rigid.

Modality
Selecting the modality of your contact lens deps on how often you will wear them. Dly disposables are ideal for those who wish to wear lenses only a few days per week, bi-weekly or monthly disposables suit individuals who use lenses more frequently than three times weekly. However, using bi-weekly or monthly disposables requires regular cleaning and proper storage of your contact lenses.
Lens Materials
Common materials used in contact lenses include hydrogels and silicone hydrogels. Silicone hydrogel lenses are oxygen permeable, allowing more oxygen to reach the eye compared to hydrogel options. They might be more costly but offer increased comfort for long wear periods and better health outcomes. Based on your eye conditions, usage habits, and budget constrnts, our optometrists will recomm the best choice.
Contact Lens Size
The size of contact lensesmeasured as base curve and diameteraffects how well they fit on your eyes, influencing whether they feel too loose or tight. Loose lenses might fall out when you move your eyes while tight lenses can cause discomfort after about two hours of wear. A contact lens consultation is recommed to determine the perfect fit.
