Summer is here, and we all know what that means – BBQs, beach holidays, summer weddings, and, of course, the occasional game of cricket or tennis. But if you’re still fumbling with your glasses, perhaps it’s time to consider switching to contact lenses. After all, nothing says “summer freedom” quite like ditching the specs. We’re here to help you choose the perfect contact lenses and make the most of your summer adventures!

Why Contact Lenses?

First things first, why should you even consider contact lenses? Simple – they make life easier and more enjoyable.

  1. No more foggy glasses when you step out of an air-conditioned room into the summer heat.
  2. No more worrying about breaking your frames during an enthusiastic game of rounders.
  3. Being able to wear those snazzy non-prescription sunglasses you’ve had your eye on.

Types of Contact Lenses

There are three main types of contact lenses to choose from: daily disposables, fortnightly disposables, and monthly disposables. Each has its perks, so let’s see which one suits your lifestyle best.

Daily Disposables

The most convenient. Pop in a fresh pair every day and toss them out before bed. Perfect for occasional wearers or anyone who doesn’t want to deal with cleaning solutions. Ideal for weddings, day trips, and spontaneous summer outings. Plus, they’re super travel-friendly – no need to pack bulky lens cases and solutions.

Fortnightly Disposables

If you’re looking for a balance between convenience and cost, fortnightly disposables are your best bet. Change them every two weeks and keep them clean with a bit of solution. Great for those who wear lenses regularly but still want a break from the daily routine.

Monthly Disposables

These lenses are perfect for daily wearers. They require nightly cleaning and storage, but they offer the best value for frequent use. If you’re someone who wears lenses day in and day out, monthlies are ideal.
