Say Goodbye to Tired Red Eyes

I have astigmatism and it was not a big problem until after four years of working in front of a computer. I was 24 when I got a -1.5/-1.5 (R/L) eyeglasses prescription. That was not severe and I was still able to function well without the eyeglasses so I didn’t really take ‘wearing eyeglasses’ seriously.

Early last year I noticed that I found it difficult to read and the blur vision got more intense so I needed to consult an ophthalmologist again. I was informed that my lens’ grades went up to -2.00/-1.75 (R/L) and last month, I got yet another prescription, -2.25/-2.00 (R/L). I blame the rapid deterioration of my eyes on staying too long in front of the computer.

So anyway, I was advised to seriously consider wearing eyeglasses all the time. Of course that was not a good deal for me because I hate wearing eyeglasses. I think they make me look older so I chose to wear contact lenses instead. After trying several brands of contact lenses, I settled with Acuvue Oasys because unlike the others, Acuvue Oasys lenses don’t dry out while they’re on so my eyes don’t get irritated. And because they are constantly moist, I feel comfortable when I have them on. With Acuvue Oasys, I don’t need to worry about getting tired red eyes. Acuvue Oasys is recognized as the number one brand of contact lens in America and anyone can order them easily at Lens.com.
