There are many reasons why getting contact lenses is better than continuing to wear glasses. Anyone who wears glasses is aware of the little struggles that they encounter daily. For example, your glasses fog up when it’s cold outside and the sun reflects off your glasses making it hard to see. Here are a few benefits of switching from glasses to contact lenses:



More comfortable - Contact lenses are more comfortable because you don’t have something resting on your nose and ears all day. You can just go about your day not having to worry about taking breaks from wearing your glasses because they are hurting your nose or ears.

The feeling of being “normal” - When you wear glasses, you don’t have the freedom to wear certain things like sunglasses. You can get your glasses to have prescription sunglasses, but then you miss out on the various kinds of sunglasses available in stores and online. Contact lenses also give you the ability to feel normal in the sense that you don’t have glasses on your face. Sometimes people feel less confident with glasses, so contact lenses would give them more confidence. 

Don’t have to worry about them breaking or getting knocked off - For anyone who plays sports or who is just active, it would be smart for them to make the switch from glasses to contact lenses. Having contact lenses gives you the ability to run, jump, dance, and do any other kind of physical activity without worrying about your glasses falling off your face and breaking. There is also the potential of someone running into you and pushing your glasses into your face, which wouldn’t feel good.
