Question

I am going to get contacts next month and my mom wants me to find out the pros and cons of contact lenses.

Answer 1

Pros is that u dont have to wear spect full time and cons might be having dry eyes

Answer 2

Pros:

- Can't feel them, so it's as if you have perfect vision

- Makes you look better

- No one can see them

- You can see all around with perifferal vision, unlike with glasses where you see the glasses and can't see to the sides and up and down

-Great for sports and can't get broken like glasses can in a sport

Cons:

- May take a while to learn to put in

- Can sometimes get dry at night

- Highers risk for infection

- More expensive

- Can rip if not carefully handled

I WEAR CONTACTS. I would definitely go for them.

Good luck!

Answer 3

pros = you cant feel them so its like having perfect eyesight.

- they look better than glasses because you cannot see them at all [most of the time]

- its easier to do sports in them rather than wearing glasses.

cons = they make you more prone to eye infections

          

- they can be quite expensive

          

- unless you get dailies you have to spend quite some time in cleaning them every single day.

Answer 4

Pros -

No glasses to wear

Safer while playing sports especially when you have stuff thrown towards you... baseball, softball, basketball... etc.

Cons-

you have to stick your finger on your eyeball.

still need to carry an extra set of glasses

infection risk increases

more maintenance needed with contacts

contacts can fall out, especially if you have allergies and rub your eyes or do some contact sports.

Answer 5

pros- cant feel them unless u put them in wrong, cant get broken

cons- u could forget u have them on, they can float out if u are submerged in water w/ ur eyes open. (i go on the jet ski and i ride on this like floatation thing with mine in. how the heck is it spelled lol? innertube? intertube?idk)

Answer 6

Well I've had them about 2 years now and I love them. You get better depth perception, and you don't see the frames of your glasses.

I can only think of a couple of problems and the benefits vastly outweigh the problems. One if your fingers are not totally clean when you put them in, your eyes burn for a little bit, and you forget your wearing them. I"ve almost gone to bed with them in a few times

Answer 7

Today just about everyone can wear contact lenses, and there are more healthful and convenient contact lens options than ever before.
