the benefits of contact lenses

Do you need glasses or contact lenses, but you do not know yet what you will choose? We tell you why lenses are always worth considering. The benefits of contact lenses at a glance:

No 'glasses face'

Some people say they don't have a "glasses face." Contact lenses are ideal for them because they're practically invisible. They don't change your appearance. Incidentally, we believe that everyone with the right frames has a glasses face. So definitely challenge our style experts!

No fogged-up glasses

Temperature fluctuations, face masks, mugs of hot drinks... glasses wearers already know exactly what we're talking about: your lenses turn opaque as they fog up. Greasy fingerprints and dirt also mean you need to clean your lenses regularly to maintain clear vision. You don't have that problem with contact lenses!

They are very suitable for sports

Wearing glasses while exercising isn't ideal. Sweat can cause frames to slide down your nose, and heat can cause lenses to fog up (tip: our sports glasses reduce this problem). And if your frames get hit by a ball or an opponent, they can get damaged. Contact lenses give you more freedom of movement while exercising. The only exception: swimming.

No prescription sunglasses needed

If you wear contact lenses, you have complete freedom to choose your own sunglasses. Any style is possible, and because the lenses don't need to be prescription, they're more affordable.

Less distortion

No matter how well we customize your lenses, there's always a small space between your eyes and the glasses, which can sometimes distort your vision. Seeing something out of the corner of your eye is more difficult because your frame usually doesn't extend to the sides. Contact lenses sit directly on the eye, so you're not forced to look through a lens that stops somewhere.

Night lenses

No glasses or contact lenses during the day, but still see clearly? Night lenses are possible. These special rigid contact lenses correct the shape of your eyes while you sleep, allowing you to see clearly during the day without eye aids. Unfortunately, they're not available for every prescription. We'd be happy to tell you if they're right for you.

Lots of possibilities

When it comes to contact lenses, there are far more options than you might think. At Oogwereld, we have the expertise to tailor lenses perfectly to your eyes, including specialty lenses, hard contact lenses, and night lenses.
