What is the main difference between hard and soft contact lenses? If you asked me to explain the difference in a word, I would say – usability. Soft contact lenses are easy to use – you get used to them at first wearing. However, hard contact lenses are known for more distinct picture they enable to see. Astigmatism (that most people this or that way suffer from) is easily corrected with hard contact lenses, and it’s much more difficult and sometimes impossible to treat it with soft lenses. The thing is that hard lenses give a hard and strictly round shape to damaged cornea. Soft lenses are just put on the cornea and, therefore, they cannot treat astigmatism or cannot correct it in full. Moreover, they can ruin the eyesight as they can slightly warp at drying and winking.
If go on to compare hard and soft contact lenses, I should say that hard lenses are more lasting than the soft ones. Hard contact lenses are less subjected to air pollution impacts. Soft lenses absorb water, sprays and cosmetics. Saleswoman at perfumery can notice soon that her lenses became dirty and cause inconveniences now. Sprays can damage hard contact lenses as well, but as opposed to soft ones, hard contact lenses are easier to clean. Click to continue...
