I am getting contacts for the first time whats it going to be like?

Question

I got glasses for the first time last year and I really hate having to wear them, my kids always try and grab them... and I dont want to break them either, so I am going to get contacts... and I have no clue what it will be like. I would like to hear what you have to say about them.

Answer 1

You will feel liberated! HAHA Im a contact user and love it. If you have alot of activities (sport, dancing, playing with kids etc) to do contact lenses are the way to go. You can move around without worrying about dropping your glasses anymore or hiding your face behind your glasses.  You may sometimes feel dryness if you wear it for a long time so you may need to use rewetting drops. Soft contact lenses may break but only if your pretty rough with them. Oh...and you may also change your eye color with a colored contact lense. Theres different types of lenses you may buy depending on how many times you will use them per week/month.

I recommend you getting contact lenses if your glasses really bother you. Book with your optometrist and they will give you more information about them especially how to care for them and your eyes.
