  • Wearing glasses can be bothersome if you play sports or lead an active lifestyle, so contact lenses may offer a solution. Most people seeking to wear contact lenses will try soft contacts.

    Significance

    Soft contact lenses are suitable for nearly everyone and are available in many types.

    Considerations

    Allergies can make it tough to wear contacts, but daily disposable soft contact lenses may be the solution.

    Types

    Silicone extended-wear soft contacts may be a good choice if you have dry eyes. These lenses help prevent deposits from building up.

    Solutions

    Soft contact lenses can be worn even if you need bifocals, have astigmatism or need to have your cornea reshaped.

    Sports Uses

    Athletes and even sports fans may use specially designed soft contact lenses with a light-filtering tint to make some colors brighter and others softer in order to better see the ball.

    Warning

    You may not be able to wear soft contact lenses if you are frequently around fumes, don't produce tears or have had a viral infection in your cornea.
