No, it doesn’t magnify things. Glasses lenses are set away from the eyes, causing a slight reduction in vision. Myopic(nearsighted) correction uses concave lenses, which can make images appear smaller. Contact lenses, being closer to the eye, provide a view more true to the actual size of objects which might feel like magnification compared to glasses.
Initial tearing is normal for new contact lens wearers and typically subsides within 10-15 minutes. Persistent tearing could indicate the lens is inside-out, dirty, or damaged, leading to discomfort or eye irritation. In such cases, remove, clean, and inspect the lenses. If problems persist, consult an eye care professional.
Dryness can occur with prolonged lens wear, especially in air-conditioned environments or while using screens. Using lubricating drops or rewetting the lenses can help. If dryness persists or worsens, it may indicate an underlying issue like reduced tear production, it requires medical evaluation. If with the above method, dry sensation can’t be relieved, even constantly aggravated, one should go to the hospital for inspection, to make a definite diagnosis whether the tears secretion is less or not. If there exists the conditions of xerophthalmia, then we could consult with the doctor whether we could continuously use the contact lens or not.
Blurred vision can result from improperly fitting lenses, or lenses with excessive protein buildup. Ensure your lenses fit correctly and are regularly cleaned to avoid this issue.
Remove and inspect the lenses for damage. Clean and sterilize them before reusing. If discomfort continues, consult and optometrist.
Some movement is normal and necessary for tear circulation and oxygen supply to the cornea. Excessive movement, however, might impair vision and requires a professional fitting adjustment.
Pregnancy can alter tear composition and volume, potentially causing discomfort with contact lens use. It’s generally advised to avoid contact lenses during pregnancy.
Yes, contact lenses are often a good solution for significant prescription differences (anisometropia) between eyes, as they minimize the image size disparity and distortion that glasses might cause.
Change the lens storage solution weekly. Before wearing them again, clean the lenses with the solution.
No, care solutions and lubricants serve different purposes and are not interchangeable.
Store them at temperatures below 25℃, away from direct sunlight and moisture, not inn the fridge or bathroom, after opening, close caps tightly to prevent contamination.
Use opened care solutions within 3 months to avoid contamination risks.
No, always use fresh solution to ensure cleanliness and avoid contamination.
Proper fit is key for comfort. If your lenses feel too loose, consider lenses with a steeper base curve or a larger diameter. Conversely, if they feel too tight, opt for a lens with a flatter base curve or a smaller diameter. Custom options are available from us, offering a range from 8.00mm to 8.70 mm in base curve and various diameters. Realcon’s advanced manufacturing techniques ensure a comfortable fit and we offer comprehensive after-sales support.
Not necessarily. People with lower tear production may benefit more from low water content lenses, while those with higher tear production could opt for high water content lenses. However dry eyes can be caused by various factors, so it’s important to consider the material, technology and quality of the lenses, not just their water content.
Oxygen permeability is crucial for eye health in contact lens wearers. Lenses receive oxygen from the air, delivered through tear circulation. Factors influencing oxygen permeability include lens thickness, water content, material, design and the fit of the lens. Realcon’s lathe-cutting lenses, designed with double arcs and rounded edges, offer high oxygen permeability, ensuring a healthier lens-wearing experience.
