• Do you have problems with dry eyes? If so opt for lenses that are silicon based, or you can use eye drops for comfort.
• Do you suffer from any allergies? Allergies can make your eyes sensitive if so opt for daily disposable lenses.
• What is your lifestyle? If you play a lot of sports daily disposable lenses are easier to plays sports in than wearing glasses. Hygiene – if your hands get dirty at work and you have lots of dirt and grime under your nails, or you smoke, daily disposable lenses will suit you best.
• What type of job do you have? If your work has you staying up late of a night, extended wear lenses would suit you as they can be worn for longer periods of time.
