Contact Lenses and Dry Eyes

Until recently, contact lenses and dry eyes seemed to come hand in hand. Modern technology, however, has developed several ways for contact lens wearers to deal with dry eyes. When eyes become dry, they can be irritable, bloodshot and in severe cases, vision can become impaired.

What Causes Dry Eyes?

Dry eyes occur for a number of reasons, although there is thought to be a particular link between extended contact lenses and dry eyes. Dry eyes are also prevalent with older contact lens wearers as tear ducts become less effective with age. Problems with contact lenses and dry eyes become exacerbated when wearers spend a considerable length of time in front of a computer screen or in an air-conditioned environment.

Specific Contact Lenses for Dry Eyes

There are some manufacturers that deal specifically with the problem of contact lenses and dry eyes. For example biomedics offer their own range of frequency 55 contact lenses for dry eyes. The higher water content can be a real benefit for those suffering from irritated and dry eyes.

If you are looking for contact lenses for dry eyes, take some time to review and make a comparison before you select the best contact lenses for your circumstances. So many companies offer a range dealing specifically with contact lenses and dry eyes that it pays to experiment and shop around and compare ratings.

Solutions for Contact Lenses and Dry Eyes

It's not only specific types of contact lenses that can help with dry eyes. There are solutions that are aimed at working alongside contact lenses and dry eyes to minimize the risks; theses include tear inducing solutions and artificial tears.

Those who suffer from problems with contact lenses and dry eyes need to pay particular attention to the various contact lens products on the market. By comparing brands and manufacturers, the perfect contact lens will be found.

If irritation of the eyes continues, the contact lenses should be removed immediately and a health care professional consulted.

With modern developments, there is no need for any contact lens wearer to suffer from dry eyes, so get help and remove the irritation.

Contact lenses and dry eyes are soon to be a thing of the past!
