Benefits of being a contact lens wearer
Thanks to the professional care of the better independent opticians such as Oogwereld, the Netherlands has developed into a contact lens country par excellence. Hardly anywhere in the world will you find as many satisfied contact lens wearers as here. At Oogwereld we would of course like to keep it that way. To make it extra attractive for you, we have various advantages for you as a contact lens wearer.
- Better materials are being developed,
- so that the oxygen supply to the eye remains optimal during wear.
- This is essential to keep the eyes healthy.
For the same reason, it is very important that contact lens wearers have their eyes regularly checked by the contact lens specialist. Thanks to all current developments, almost anyone who wants to, young or old, can now wear contact lenses. If you want to be sure or would like more information, please make an appointment without obligation with one of our contact lens specialists. You hardly need to get used to soft lenses. They are immediately very comfortable. However, some eye errors cannot be corrected very well, but if it is possible, you can make the choice together with our contact lens specialist: soft or shape-retaining.
Soft lenses are generally slightly larger than rigid lenses and move slightly less on the eye. This means that dust cannot get underneath, which sometimes happens with rigid lenses.Â
Partly for this reason, soft lenses are ideally suited to wear during sports. Even during contact sports, soft lenses can be worn without any problems.
