Are disposable contact lenses safe?

Home / Eye Health FAQs

Polarized lenses are, sunglass lenses that not only protect your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun (protecting against macular disease, cataracts, pinguelcua and sunburn), but also reduce the amount of glare reflecting off of shiny or wet surfaces. This offers the sharpest most unobstructed view of your world around you. A polarized filter is applied to the lenses which only allows light traveling in one direction to pass through.

Polarized sunglasses are ideal for water sports or hobbies such as boating, jet skiing, and fishing and also useful for snow sports like skiing and snowboarding. Sunglasses with ultra violet (UV) protection, should be worn year round when outdoors to protect your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun, but adding the extra polarized filter will give you the clearest vision possible.

New products are always being developed to further combat eye health related concerns while wearing contact lenses.

The most recent product is daily disposable lenses. Daily disposable contact lenses are superior for eye health over their weekly and monthly counterparts because you are putting in a fresh lens each day so the buildup of toxic materials from your tears, contact lens solutions, and whatever is growing in your 3-year old contact lens case (yes these need to be replaced also) doesn’t have a chance to cause an infection or irritation to your eyes.

If your eyes ever become red, painful, light-sensitive, or your vision suddenly becomes blurry while wearing your contact lenses make an appointment to be seen by our eye doctor right away.

Daily disposables are now available for many different prescriptions including, farsightedness, nearsightedness, astigmatism, and even presbyopia, a decrease in the focusing ability of the eye to see things up close.
