Why I prefer contact lenses to glasses

December 12, 2006 by Tricia

If you’ve ever watched any of the videos that I’ve made and posted on this site you’ll notice that I sometimes wear glasses and other times, while it might appear that my eyes are au natual, I do indeed have contacts in. In fact I prefer to wear contacts as much as possible, especially if I’m going outside on a bright sunny day because using prescription contacts help me shield my eyes from the sun because I can wear sunglasses. I can’t and won’t wear those stupid sunglass shade like things on my eye glasses and I find prescription eye glasses that get darker in the sun are usually heavy, uncomfortable and too dark to use indoors in low light conditions.

Here I am rambling when I was just about to tell you about this Discount Contact lens site that I found. I’ve never purchased contact lenses online but given that the prices are so much lower than when I’ve purchased them through my optometrist or even a wholesale eye wear store, I think I will be making a purchase soon.

Browsing through the site I see that they have all of the major brands- and quite a variety of each brand as well. They sell single day lenses, 30 day lenses, 1 – 2 week, 1-3 month disposable lenses as well as Toric and bifocal lenses. Pretty much any type that you can get in a store that sells prescription glasses and contact lenses – but the price is a heck of a lot better!

Discount Contact Lenses often has a sale going on or offers rebates on the products they sell. Oh and I like that they won Gold Honoree in Customer Support status at BizRate.com. That’s gotta mean that they have good service.

    I completely know what you mean. I have a pair of prescription sunglasses that are a good 6 years old and hate them. I have a pair of RayBans which I love, but can only wear them with contacts. It’s a no brainer for me. Saying that, contacts really hurt my eye over the course of the day, so I do take them out and swap in the evening. It’s just the type of thing I ramble on about at my (fairly) new blog.

    Good post!
