If you need corrective lenses, you’ll need to choose between glasses and contact lenses. Here are 3 things to think about as you make your decision.
You’ve been told you need corrective lenses to see better. Now what? Are you an eyeglass wearer or more of a contact lens type? Can you be both? That’s where the optical experts at America’s Best become your best allies. Here are three things to consider.
Eye checkups are an essential part of your health care routine. Find an exam time that fits your schedule.
1. What Are Your Eye Issues?
Some types of prescriptions may tip the balance in favor of eyeglasses or contact lenses. For example, people with astigmatism may benefit from certain types of contacts.
But if you have very dry eyes or deal with eye allergies, you may be more comfortable in glasses. During your eye exam, your optometrist gathers information that allows them to make the best recommendation for your lifestyle. Ask them questions so you understand the pros and cons of your options.
2. What’s a Typical Day Like?
Knowing your particular vision needs will help narrow your options, too. For instance, if you spend a good part of your day driving, you may want to consider contacts. They give you better peripheral vision — which is important when you’re on the road.
Does your work involve lots of meetings or presentations? Glasses can become an important part of your signature style. And in some cases, it makes sense to have both.
Many people who play sports like to wear contact lenses during the activity, but then switch to glasses for the rest of the day.
3. What Is Your Budget?
At America’s Best, we have high-quality eyeglasses and contact lenses for every budget. Glasses tend to be easier on your wallet, simply because you don’t need to replace them as often. And when you choose two pairs, your eye exam is free.
Contact lenses come in daily disposable and extended-wear varieties. Daily-use contacts cost a bit more, but you can save by purchasing an annual supply, or joining the Eyecare Club.
Whichever path you choose, our optical experts can help you find your perfect eyewear and stick to your budget.
