Why NOT Contact Lenses - Natural Eye Health

"Avoid Wasting Your Hard-earned Cash on Contacts

Next up on my list of alternatives for vision improvement are contact lenses.

While contacts seem relatively benign, they certainly are not a natural solution. And there's no way you were ever designed to wear them.

Believe me -- I spent over 5 years researching all forms of vision improvement to not only help you, but to solve my own vision problem as well. And I am convinced that contacts can be an even worse solution than glasses.

Here are the main issues I have with contact lenses and why I recommend you avoid them… They:

Are inconvenient to use -- can be uncomfortable to you with a poor fit

Create recurring expenses for replacements, solutions, and check-ups

Can be difficult for you to keep clean and disinfected

Potentially lead to irritation and abrasion of your cornea

May deprive your covered cornea of necessary oxygen

Dry out your eyes and may cause eye and eyelid infections

Subject you to irritation from dust, pollutants, and allergens

May interfere with your normal blinking and tearing

Potentially distort the shape of your cornea impacting your vision

But there is an even more concerning issue with contact lenses -- the lens solutions and cleansers necessary for their use.

Fungal Eye Infections causing potential blindness forced some companies to withdraw their cleansers from the marketplace. Well-established companies such as Bausch and Lomb and Advanced Medical Optics, to name a few, faced recall issues on their lens solutions.

So, if you have any doubt about using contact lenses, this is certainly an additional serious concern. Due to injury and even death, law suits have been filed against at least one of the cleanser producers. "
