Some people want contacts for every day, while others only want them for sports, travel, or special occasions. Long hours at a screen, dry eye symptoms, and past lens experiences all help shape the recommendation. The more you share, the better your optometrist can match a lens design and wearing routine to you.
If you need help with both near and distance vision, or you have astigmatism, there may be lens designs worth discussing. Your optometrist will explain the options suited to your prescription and why a particular lens may make sense. The aim is a lens that fits comfortably into your day.
