Contacts improve a person's eyesight without the use of traditional eyeglasses. Convenience and comfort are the cornerstones of a wide range of contact lenses that include disposable, frequent replacement and conventional soft lens types. There are many reasons a person chooses to use contact lenses over traditional eye wear.
Many people feel they look better without the presence of eyeglass frames on their face.
Others use contacts as a matter of convenience. They are not encumbered by the frames while doing exercise, physical work or other activities where glasses pose an obstacle. Finally, individuals with strong prescrptions often must wear heavy eyeglasses. Contact lenses can be purchased from the independent doctors of optometry next to LensCrafters. With the doctor's approval, people can purchase replacement lenses through a mail order program .
