What Is More Convenient Spectacles Or Contact Lenses..???

Hi there! i prefer spects because generally llenses and high maintenance. It also is a bother that you have to put them in your eyes and when you forget about it when you are too tired, i'd say its really dangerous. I am the kind that lacks or finds ceremonies too tiring(i'm lazy with maintenance, yah) so i would choose spectacles or eye glasses. =)

I am short sighted. I got reading glasses when I was 10 years old and my eyesight got slowly so bad I needed them all day long. In my late teenage years I didn't like wearing my glasses. I felt so awful wearing my glasses as I thought I couldn't look pretty wearing them. On my trip around the world I had a pair of prescription sunglasses however I had to wear my glasses after dark. Whilst in Sydney I decided to get contact lenses. The optician helped me get used to taking them in and out. I had them on 2 hours, then 4 hours, then 6 hours and so on until all day. I stored them in solution in the night and they lasted for 2 weeks. When I went back home I got ones that lasted for 4 weeks. Eventually I went to daily disposable contact lenses. Getting contact lenses was one of the best ever decisions I have made. I have got a pair of glasses for wearing in the night and when my eyes are sore.

I think that this all depends on your comfort and perception of appearance to others. Contact lenses are invisible to those around you but they are not always comforting to your eye. Spectacles are very noticeable. Some people are not eager to share their sight problems. It all depends on the type of person that you are.

I am extremely nearsighted and astigmatic. Started wearing glasses when I was 8 and contacts at 16 and that was 45 years ago. I wear disposable extended-wear contact lenses. Never take them out. Never have to care for them. When I'm ready for a new pair, I toss the old ones and put in a new pair. Extended-wear lens are designed to be worn 24/7 and from 1 week to 1 month, although I have worn mine for months. (I am NOT recommending you wear them for months and my eye doctor would certainly have a heart attack if she knew I did it.) Anyway, I never clean them. When they get too dirty to see, I throw them out. Can't beat that for convenience.

Hi. Why you didn't post this under interest 'life'? Nevermind.. My friend use lenses. And she gets real irritated when she uses it for nearly equal to even 8 hours. And i use specs. I am comfortable with it. I hardly take care of my specs. But that's not the case for lenses.. And if you start wearing lenses, no one will call you 'scholar' as it is a popular tag given to people/students who wear specs. Lol. I hope you are aware of it.

spects are undoubtedly the comfortable than contact lens. because we can wear the spects whenever we want according to our convience. but contact lenses have to be changes regularly, if dust accumulates in our eyes it irritates us. so i would say spects are always the best

I think it is better to use the spectacles because it is safer. It is also convenient because you don't need to wash the contact lenses. If you don't wash the contact lenses well, your eyes will be infected.

Hi, As you ahve to travel by crowded train that time lenses are preferable but you have to take care of your lenses. If you feel more comfortable with your spectacles then you use spectacles. Both the lenses and spectacles has advantages and disadvantages. thank you for the response.

Hi rucha..i have been using spectacles since many years and i prefer it rather than contact lens. My baby pulls my spects off my face all the time but i use special glass it doesnt break. We have to be extra careful while using lense. Its up to you what suits your face you can have it.

According to your question, contact lenses are more convenient. But it has many adverse effects like you cant go near any hot object or else your eyes can get damaged.
