40'S - 50'S: YOUR EYES, VISION, AND CONTACT LENSES.

Whether you're just considering a switch to contact lenses or you've been wearing them for years, be aware that successful, healthy vision depends on three things:

Your Eyes
Are they healthy?

Your Vision
Is it as good as you want?

Your Contact Lenses
What's the best method of vision correction for you?

YOUR EYES
When you're in your 40's and 50's, your eyes tend to tire more easily, may be prone to dryness, and may be more sensitive to contact lenses (and solutions) than they used to be. Most of these symptoms are simply a matter of age-related change. But to make sure your eyes are healthy, you need to get an eye exam every year.

YOUR VISION
Your vision may continue to change as you grow older. Even in your 40's and 50's, your prescription may evolve from year to year. But the biggest change you'll face is presbyopia - the inability to focus properly on fine print or up-close work. If you've resigned yourself to wearing reading or bifocal glasses, you'll be happy to know that advances in contact lens technology means you may not need them, after all.

YOUR CONTACT LENSES

Are you using the best vision correction method for your individual needs? Plan to meet with your eye care professional to talk about new innovations in vision correction, and what's best for you. Set an appointment immediately if you notice any changes in your eyes or vision.
