How to choose high quality contact lens?
When choosing a contact lens, you should check out these parameters.
Oxygen permeability: you must know that our eyes also need breath. If a contact lens with low oxygen permeability, your eyes might feel dry after you wear lens for several hours.
Water content: A lens with high water content will result eye dry after long time wearing. High water content lens means it needs more water in another word, tears. The more tears absorbed by the lens, the more uncomfortable of your eyes.
Central thickness: If the central thickness is less than 0.04mm, it belongs to ultra thin. The ideal thickness is 0.04mm-0.06mm and normal one is range from 0.04mm to 0.09mm. What’s feeling can an ultra thin lens bring to you? More comfortable wear experience when wear it.
However, you can’t just choose a contact lens on your own after check out these parameters. The condition of your eyes should also take into account. So, you can avoid low quality contact lens.
