If you have a choice between getting traditional glasses or contact lenses, how do you choose? There are a lot of factors to consider, but it generally comes down to personal preference. To get either of these, you need an eye exam from the eye doctor. An eye exam at Advanced Eye Care can be done in any of our offices in Amarillo, Canyon, Dumas, and Hereford, TX, with the optometrist.
When you go to the eye doctor for your eye exam, you can get an eyeglasses exam if you want to wear them. Wearing glasses is something that most people find to be a highly simplified way to correct their vision. It's easy to learn how to use them and care for them, and they can be taken off anywhere you are. They don't need a lot of supplies or special handling other than preventing scratches. A lot of people like their classic look. Many people choose glasses because they don't like the idea of handling their eyes or contact lenses. They also want to have the freedom to take off their glasses at any time in case they want to sleep or rest their eyes. Glasses are perfect for all of these needs.
When you don't want to wear glasses, contact lenses are a great way to get clearer vision. They do need some supplies to take care of them, and you can't take the off just anywhere, but they are perfect for a lot of lifestyles. For those who engage in sports or exercise, contacts work well because they won't fog up or get knocked off. They are also good for those who don't like the way they look in glasses.
