Contact Lenses Vs. Glasses

Contact Lenses and Glasses

When you have a vision prescription that requires vision correction, you might wonder whether it's better to get contact lenses or glasses. Both are great ways to improve your vision, and the choice likely will come down to your specific lifestyle. Choosing between contacts and glasses can be hard, but there are a few ways to make it easier. Call Greenwich Eye Care to make an appointment with one of our eye doctors for a prescription. From there, we can go over the benefits of glasses and contacts and which one is more beneficial for you.

Why Choose Contacts?

Contacts are a great choice for people who are highly physically active. They don't fog up when it gets hot, and they won't fall out when you exert yourself. If you exercise a lot or play a sport, contacts can be a good way to make those activities easier. Contacts are also low-maintenance and only need to be cleaned after removing the lenses. Many people like the convenience of wearing them and the fact that they don't have to think about them all day long.

Why Choose Glasses?

If you have visited the eye doctors and found that you like the way glasses look, you're not alone. Many people like the look of glasses and choose this vision correction method for that reason. They come in a wide variety of styles, and it's easy to find a pair that complements your face. Others choose glasses because they don't like the idea of putting in and removing contacts. Many people also want to be able to sleep whenever they want without worrying about taking out contacts. Glasses can be ideal for this.
