If we identify refractive errors during your eye exam, we may recommend that you wear contact lenses. To prevent the risk of infection, Vienna Eyecare Center offers daily disposable contact lenses. Here, our trusted optometrist explains how daily disposable contacts can safeguard your visual health and improve your quality of life.
Fewer Maintenance Requirements
Daily disposables are worn at the start of your day and disposed of before you turn in for the night. This eliminates the cleaning routine that other types of lenses require, saving you time and effort.
No Need to Remember Any Replacement Schedule
Daily disposable contact lenses are used one time only, so you don’t have to keep track of a complicated replacement schedule like you would with other lens types. Just toss them out at night and use a new pair every morning. The difference in their cost compared to other types is small when you factor in the increased health benefits.
Reduces Your Risk of Developing Lens Wear-Related Problems
Since they are not reused, they reduce your risk of developing lens-wear-induced infections, while also protecting you from eye allergies related to lens solutions. Other visual health problems associated with extended-wear contacts, like dry eye syndrome, are not a concern with this option either.
Proper Care for Daily Contact Lenses
When it comes to your daily contact lenses, proper hand washing is still a priority. This can reduce hand-eye transmission of infections and other diseases. You can apply and remove them from your eyes just like other contact lenses. The only thing you have to remember is to dispose of them at the end of the day.
We also offer high-quality eyeglasses as a vision correction option. If you have any further questions about daily contact lenses, call us at (703) 938-7633. You may also complete our online form to request an appointment.
