      If you use them, it's best practice to take breaks and wear your glasses every so often. You're always getting less oxygen to your eyes while wearing contacts than you are when you're just wearing glasses.
      The main issue with contacts is user error. I've heard people talk about wearing what was supposed to be a single monthly lens for over half a year. It's pretty much always because of how much they cost (in the U.S... because of course.)
      Contacts are expensive, but having to get treatment because you suffocated your eyeballs will cost a whole lot more.

    @petuniasevan 2 года назад +164

    I wanted to make a comment here about something I experienced years ago and it might be helpful to others.
    Some years ago I woke up one morning to the most excruciating pain in one eye. I was streaming tears and made the mistake of trying to rub the eye. Agonizing pain. Felt like a red hot poker. Extremely blurry vision in that eye. It took hours for the pain and tears to reduce. Took two days for the blurriness to go away.
    I had no idea what it was, but at some point it happened again, this time in the other eye. I was very lucky to NOT ever have it happen in both eyes at the same time. Eye drops (never visine of course) of the lubricant type helped but nothing prevented it.
    I went to my optometrist for my yearly checkup (for prescription and for diabetes eye check) and he noticed that I had scarring on my corneas. I told him of my experience and he immediately told me it sounded like I had Recurrent Corneal Erosion. I made a note of what he recommended and intended the next day to get some special (hypertonic) eye ointment. That night it happened again, and boy was it a bad one. Got on the phone with the local ophthalmologist office and got an urgent appointment. Yup. She put some dye in, had a look with a bright light, and went and got a soft contact lens bandage. Instant relief when that thing covered up the cornea.
    So since most folks use the optometrist's services more often than they see an ophthalmologist, communicate and ask the optometrist questions! I'm glad I took his advice as I've been able to control the corneal erosion issue for years now.

    Used to work for an optometrist, these aren't in any order. But these are things I picked up that I will never do.
    1. Trust an online app for what should be an annual eye exam by a licensed physician, because eye exams are not just about your prescription it's also to check on the health of your eyes as well.
    2. Sleeping in contacts that are not recommended for sleeping in. (2a. Or wear contacts past recommended usage)
    3. Skipping retinal photography when available.
    4. If I have insurance, I will check what my insurance coverage is before I go in to the exam or use my benefits for glasses or contacts. (Had people come in thinking everything was covered by their employer, and usually with those people their employer had the worst benefits. Irony.)
    5. Make sure I do not walk out of an optometrist's office without a prescription that notes my pupil distance on the prescription in case I need a new pair of glasses if mine ever happen to break.

    • @jayspeidell
      @jayspeidell 2 года назад +1

      6. Buy Luxottica glasses. (Don't do it.)
      Make sure you ask for the pupillary distance before making the appointment because many optometrists won't give it to you. This is because they are almost all (maybe all) dealers of Luxottica monopoly glasses and don't want you buying reasonably priced glasses from Zenni Optical or Warby Parker.
      If they say no to the PD request go somewhere else. Costco has independent optometrists who will happily provide it.
