Summer is great for a number of reasons - sun, beaches, time off from work and holidays to name but a few.
However, for those with visual difficulties, it can be hard time of year.
From wearing glasses to playing sports outdoors,
dry eyes caused by contact lenses and of course hayfever, there are many problems that those who have less than perfect vision can suffer with.
Contact lens wearers can sometimes suffer more than most, needing to bring solution with them everywhere they go and for hayfever sufferers wearing lenses can lead to painfully itchy and streaming eyes, with pollen sticking to lenses and making the situation worse.
Additionally, anyone who needs to wear prescription sunglasses will be aware of the difficulties of finding a good pair - you cannot simply walk into a high street store and pick a pair off the shelf, meaning many who have trouble with their sight can miss out on the latest fashions.
Orthokeratology can be a solution for anyone who is looking for an alternative to a summer of potential difficulty.
As ortho k lenses are worn at night and correct eyesight back to
natural vision, those who suffer with visual issues need not worry about any additional eye wear during the day.
For people going on holiday to those that simply want to be able to see well while swimming or playing football or other sports in the summer sun, ortho k lenses can be a great help.
They are also a great choice for anyone who enjoys skiing or diving, as wearing glasses under sports goggles is often impossible.
If you don't want to run the risk of
laser eye surgery and are looking for a stress free summer, why not look into ortho k lenses?
