Contact lenses have soared in popularity over the last couple decades. There are various reasons why over 24 million people now wear them in the United States alone.
The main reason of course is for cosmetic reasons. A lot of people just don't like how they look in glasses and like the natural look that contact lenses provide. Contacts can also change a person's natural eye color. A woman with blonde hair who has always wanted blue eyes can now have them. Glasses also get in the way of doing a lot of activities. Try to play almost any sport with glasses and you are going to have issues. Contacts eliminate those issues leveling the playing field.
People also choose contacts over glasses for better peripheral vision. Contact lenses are right on your eye instead of a few inches away; this provides an entire field of vision and is especially vital when driving a vehicle. Many people also do not like the added weight on their face and ears that glasses have. A lot of previous glass wearers also made the change to contact lenses because they were tired of their glasses always fogging up from temperature changes. Contacts do not have this annoying distraction. Glasses also tend to clash with certain wardrobes. It could be a casual frame not going well with a business suit or a clash in colors. Contacts of course are not a fashion worry.
People choose contacts over glasses for these reasons and many more, it is no wonder they are as popular as they are in today's society.

Does anyone of you know about the contact lenses infection that i am suffering from?(see details)?
i am a 13 year old contact lens user. i wear them daily. I have been observing since 5-6 days that when i am wearing contacts, my eyes are comfortable but as sonn as i remove them, there is some kind of irritation in the right eye which lasts for9-10 hours. Eyes never seem to be red. i am using the solution of 'complete'. Lenses are about 2 months old and both the solution and contact lenses have not expired yet.
i dont want to get rid of my lenses and am afraid of idea of optician saying me to remove lenses permanently.
tell me how should i get rid of this irritation. thanks a lot in advance.
If the contact lens is damaged, it scratches the cornea. The lens acts as a bandage and protects your damaged cornea from our eyelids. When the lens is removed, the damaged cornea is exposed to the rubbing from your lid. The cornea then repairs over the next few hours, so the irritation / pain goes.
If you continue wearing a lens that scratches your cornea, you are risking more serious complications / infections.
You need to consult your contact lens practitioner. They will examine your eyes and lenses with a microscope & let you know the exact cause. You should not continue lens wear whilst you notice this discomfort.
Hopefully you will have many sucessful years of contact lens wear ahead of you, but you need to co-operate with your optician & seek their advice if you have ANY problems.
Good luck!
