Glasses or contact lenses?

Glasses or contact lenses? People who have vision problems have at some point wondered what is better eyeglasses or contact lenses?
Specialists maintain that, in most cases, it is a matter of preference and style. There are people who love to wear glasses and incorporate them as an element of their personality. On the other hand, there are those who consider having an irresistible look and do not want to hide it behind glasses, however beautiful they may be. That’s why 40 million Americans wear contact lenses.
The reality is that both eyeglasses and lenses have their advantages and disadvantages and must be prescribed by an ophthalmologist.
Eyeglasses, for example, are cheaper, do not come into contact with the eyes, and offer some protection from dust and wind. As for disadvantages, it can be said that they are heavier, more susceptible to inclement weather, they get wet when it rains, or they fog up when it is cold, and they can bother and put pressure on the nose and ears.
For their part, the lenses are not noticeable when they are worn, some models can be used for 30 days in a row and sleep with them, they are comfortable for sports, and weather conditions do not affect them. On the other side of the coin, we have that they reduce oxygenation of the eyes, they can increase dry eye syndrome, they bother when putting them on, and they must be kept hygienically very clean to avoid infections.
