Short-sightedness is a refractive error. Along with genetic factors and malnutrition, environmental factors also bear relation to the cause of short-sightedness. Eyes lack one or some of the important nutrients during the eyes grow, which make the eye tissue becomes more fragile. The sclera of the eye wall is easy to expand under the influence of environmental factors which lead to expansion of the eye front and rear axles of the eye and the eyes arise myopia, they had to wear glasses.Messages that Impel Harm to

For a long time, people always think that edcucation and work with the eyes at short range are the crux to cause myopia. Shown by Australian research staffs, children who bathe 2~3 hours sunshine outdoors are good for the growing of eyes, and could substantially cut down the probability of suffering myopia. Myopia is always a universal phenomenon in highly-educated people. Up to 90% of Singaporeans have been afflicted with myopia when they finish their education, while the rate in Australia is only 20%. It’s hard to understand because education is popular in Australia but the myopia rate is much lower.Exquisite clip-on’s glasses Momentos

The Most Luminous bifocals Are Issued, Go to Have a Look!3 percent. “We felt extremely curiously, for Australian, a country that the citizens enjoy high education, the shortsighted population is really quite few.” Iain Morgan, a top researcher, said that the time spent in reading, watching TV and playing computer games of people in Australia and in Singapore is almost the same. However, time spent in outdoor activities varies much. On average, Sigaporean children stay outside for 30 minutes every day while Australian children spend two hours outside every day.

The contrast results show that the myopia rate for children living in Singapore is 10 times higher than that for children in Sydney. Sunning can promote more dopamine and vitamin D of the body to secrete, so which lead to reduce the incidence of myopia. As we know, dopamine can limit the growth of eyes and eyesightedness is caused by the overgrowth of eyes. Therefore, exposure to sunlight is helpful to prevent children from myopia, mainly because it mostly takes place outdoors. When the sunlight is too strong, people usually will not often use their eyes for short-distanced things Instead, they are more apt to look into the distance and do exercise to get eyeballs relaxed, which this the best way of protecting our eyesight.

Let children have outdoor activities and be often exposed to sunlight so as to let ultraviolet in sunlight directly radiate on their body, then more than 2 hours’ movement outdoors can help to obtain sufficient vitamin D. Researchers suggest that getting 2 to 3 hours of the sun will be conducive to the functional development of children’s eyes and to a large extent reduce the risk of children suffering from short-sightedness. But pay attention not to be exposed too much to sunlight in summer and be exposed to sunlight indoors through isolated glasses, because these can not achieve the purpose of ultraviolet irradiation. It’s better to prepare sunglasses when going out in summer so as to keep back ultraviolet.

A pair of clean contact lens is very important for one’s health of eyes. If you don’t clean your contact lens regularly, it may not only reduce the lifetime of the lens, but also hurt the eyes terribly!

The better you clean the lens, the healthier your eyes will be.

  1. You must clean your lens by hand over 30 seconds. That will effectively make your lens cleaner. Studies show that, cleaning by hand can be more effective than any other machine.
  2. Change your contact lens every 1 or 2 years. Even if the glasses are of high quality, they will be bad during the 1 or 2 years.
  3. Never to keep your contact lens with the physiological saline. It will only make your contact lens worse.
  4. Not to use the lenses made by different factories. The chemical reaction may be hurtful for your eyes. And there’s no factory can make sure that its production is totally innoxiously.
  5. Wipe off the protein every week. The left protein will becomes harder and then hurt the cornea.
  6. Take care of the duration of service. You’d better use out the lotion in 4 months.
  7. Not to dip in the lotion for long. After a certain time, the lotion will become the normal water. It is good for the germs’ growth. And you’d better wash the glasses again before you take on.
  8. If your eyes turn red or you begin to weep, you must take off the glasses as fast as possible. And you’d better go to visit the doctors with the contact lens. Never delay until it is too late.
  9. Change the saving box in time. Wash the box and the basket you place the things about contact lens every day. Don’t place them in the place where is always too wet. And wash them with the hot water.

Take good care of your contact lens, and also take good care of your eyes. Eyes are always said the window of your heart. The beauty eyes may make a person more beautiful in one stranger’s mind.

Put the Contact Lenses in the Cold Storeroom

Posted in Contact Lens Guide, Eye Health Care on November 21st, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

Recently, I discovered a very strange thing when I went to my friend’s house to discuss with her the detail of traveling. My friend was a fashionable girl; she always tried different kinds of new things before many others. Sometimes, when I talked with her, I came to know many modern products which had just came to the market. Recently, she began to try a new kind of contact lenses.

As is generally known, when the contact lenses were worn for a long period at one time, the eyes may feel uncomfortable. So she often took off the contact lenses after she returned home from the outside. But one thing was very puzzling at least for me; she put the lenses into the medicinal liquid and then put the little box into the storeroom of the refrigerator.

When I asked her about this, she told me much knowledge about how to protect the contact lenses. She said that as it was in the summer, the weather was very comfortable for the birth and living of the different kinds of bacteria in the atmosphere. And the contact lenses were very easily infected by the bacteria actually. Whenever there was some unhealthy thing on the lenses, it might do harm to the eyes.

So she chose to put the contact into the storeroom of the refrigerator, together with the medicinal liquid. As it was not likely to give birth to various kinds of bacteria in the cold atmosphere, this method seemed to be effective.

She also added that when it was time to take the contact lenses out again, we should always try to clean the lenses’ surface carefully. It was not very healthy to put on them directly after taking out them from the refrigerator. The process of killing the bacteria should still take place.

When I heard this, the first thing that came into my mind is that it was sincerely complicated for me. This kind of thing was probably only designed for those like my friend.

Contact Lenses? NO!

Posted in Contact Lens Guide on November 2nd, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

I don’t know when the contact lenses start to become a trend, but as far as I know there are a lot of problems they can bring to the ones who wear them.

My friend, Thomas, likes wearing contact lenses. He has quite an abundant collection of them. He tells me that contact lenses make him look nice and handsome, and he has been trying to persuade me to wear them too. However, recently, he has suffered a lot because of the little stuff.

Yesterday morning, he went to work as usual. But on his way he was collided by someone, which made him lose both of the pair of the lenses. Therefore, he went on the wrong bus, went to the wrong place, and was late totally for 2 hours. His boss was just mad at him.

Still yesterday, he had to meet an important customer who was the key deciding whether he had the quality to be promoted or not, but he missed it. They should have the appointment at 2:00 p.m., but when he got to his office at 3:00 p.m., his secretary told my friend that was over.

I felt sorry for him when he told me all the horrible things happened in just one day only resulted by a pair of contact lenses. I really didn’t know what to say except telling him to wear frame eyeglasses, because he could pick up them next time if he collided with someone else.

Poor Thomas reminds me of another friend of mine, Shirly, who loves everything that can make her pretty, including wearing contact lenses. But she, just like Thomas, had an awful day, too. One day in last month, she was going to give a speech for her final examination. Unfortunately, thirty minutes before the speech she lost her light blue pair of contact lenses. She could see the entire world vaguely, including the cards she had prepared for the speech. Afterwards, she told me that she was too nervous to remember a single word of the whole passage which she had worked hard for so much before. She was sad that day all the time when she was together with me because she only got a D from her professors.

I don’t like contact lenses. I think it’s too inconvenient. Besides, it’s rather horrible for me to put something into my eyes. Now, I have known the stories which have happened to my friends. It is clearly for me that I will never wear them. I like the frame eyeglasses. I have a very large collection of them, all kinds and all colors. Everyday I make a change of wearing them according to my mood. That’s interesting for me, and I believe the red pair in my collection which is my favourite just can bring me luck.

Carefully Wearing Contact Lenses

Posted in Contact Lens Guide, Eyeglasses Guide on October 11th, 2009 by admin – 3 Comments

Once I have read that the most beautiful flower in the world also has some unknown dangers behind it. It tells us that beautiful things are not the best. This seems true about contact lens.

Saying it is dangerous may be a little exaggerated. However, we have to take notice when we wear contact lenses, otherwise our eyes may pay the price for our carelessness. As a result, we have to be very careful when we pursuing our beauty.

As for contact lenses, the most important point is that we have to do the clean work very carefully. Let me tell you some small tips which can be a great help and lessen our eyes problems. Above of all, we have to use hands to rub lenses when we wash them. The reason is rather simple. Think about that if we just throw our dirty clothes into the washing machine without rubbing them, the dirt and oil on it can not be gotten rid of. So it is the same with washing contact lenses. The study once shows that washing them with hands can be more effective than any other equipment. In addition, we have to use special eye care products and solution for lenses and contact lenses. Don’t ever use tap water or boiling water to wash them. This point also applies to the keeping of lenses. We have to use particular products as well.

Next tip is that we have to change new pair every one or two years. Of course, one year may be better. After being used for a long time, no matter how we wash and keep them, there will little amount of dirty stuff or bacteria on them. Besides, the materials can wear down naturally as well. So it’s time for us to buy a new pair.

At last, we should use the same brand one time. If we change different ones from time to time, our eyes will suffer for different eyeglasses brands’ eye products for lenses are of various kinds.

Though contact lenses have some hidden dangers, we can also use them without worries as long as we do a good job about using, washing and keeping.

—Hey, did you get contacts?
—No.
—Your eyes are black the last time I saw you, and now, they look like golden brown.
—Yeah I know, it’s the…the fluorescent.

Boys and girls, do you still remember those lines between Bella and Edward in the most popular movie Twilight? Yes, in that scene, Edward was trying to get to know something about Bella when she raised this question to him. Unexpected and a little frightened, Edward had to leave her for a moment for the reason that he could not tell Bella the truth that he is a Vampire.

That’s just the charm of a famous movie which you can never imagine how powerful for it to influence people. But I know since the debut of the movie, contact lenses especially colorful ones regained their popularity regardless so many bad comments because many people think contacts could do lots damage to the eyes. It has been estimated that 125 million people use contact lenses now worldwide.

Then, what’s the secret of colorful contact lenses?

Colorful contact lens is the general definition of corneal contact lens with colors in the lenses. As a matter of fact, they were first used to cover the flaws in the eyes of people with eye damages. Then with time went on, they were gradually put in use as the cosmetics of actors and actresses in movies and films and finally they become even popular and gained great popularity in our everyday lives.

Nowadays, colorful contact lenses, with their unique charms, have already conquered lots of people. They no longer confine themselves to the former function of correcting visual acuity, but a hot mean in the cosmetic market of decorating oneself and showing one’s characteristics. It’s really a fashion for young people now to wear some colorful contacts like deep blue, fashion-forward green, fantastic purple, etc.

But take care! Although colorful contacts are quite popular now, we still have to face some existing problems. Because those contacts are plated with colors with net ultra-microstructure, the colors will clog some air holes and block off the exchange of eyes with oxygen and water in the air. As a result, it’s wiser for you to wear those color contacts just as a way to make up!

How to select contact lenses?

Posted in Contact Lens Guide on August 31st, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

Nowadays, more and more people are turning to the contact lenses due to different reasons. Currently, on the market there are many brands of the contact lenses. Theses kinds can be divided into various brands and different types according to the different performances. Since each kind of lenses has different characteristic, the diversification of species and functions brings difficulties to the consumers when choosing the contact lenses. Then which kind of the contact lenses is better?

First of all, when choosing the lenses, we must pay attention to that if the brand has the registration card of the National Food and the Drug Administration. The State Food and the Drug Administration adopt the ISO international standard to carry out the various functions of the lenses. For example the test of the damage to the cornea of the lenses, the test of the grinding process of the lenses, the use of the materials, the test of the water content of the lenses and the permeability, etc. Therefore, general speaking, the quality of the brand is guaranteed.

Secondly, the degree of the lenses, the size, the materials and the using time should also be taken into consideration when choosing the contact lenses. Many people think that the degree of the spectacles and that of the contact lenses are exactly the same. So they often purchase the contact lenses according to the degree of the spectacles. In fact, it’s wrong to do so. As to the same eye, the degree of the contact lenses and that of the spectacles are different. The higher are the degrees, the more obvious is the difference.

And then the size of the contact lenses should be determined according to the size of the black eyeball. If the people’s black eyeballs are big, they should choose the lenses of relatively big size. On the contrary, those whose black eyeballs are small; they’d better turn to those smaller lenses.

Well, there are still a lot of things you need to pay attention to when choosing the contact lenses. Remember that, the contact lenses are different from the eyeglasses with frames and they need more special attention

With it, we are able to see the world clearly; with it, we don’t need to worry about the awful looking only because of a big pair of eyewear on the nose; with it, we can do things more conveniently; with it, we have one more magical way to make our eyes more appealing. However, then there is the most important point: it don’t help to wear contact lenses in the long term and even it can be a hazard. The following is about four tips from the experts.

Firstly, it is likely to increase the degree of myopia thus doing harm to one’s image. It is difficult for the contact lenses to have the exact refraction degree required as a result which the degree of myopia will be unknowingly enhanced as the time passes by. What’s worse, it can make your eyes look dull and grey which has a bad effect on your personal image.

Secondly, it may lead to tiredness and even dry eye syndrome. If you wear contact lenses for long, it will cause fatigue of eyes easily. To be worse, many eye diseases are likely to come to you.

Thirdly, it is the cause of eye allergies. Contact lenses can absorb the protein, lipid and collagen in the tears and leave them on the surface of the lens which is the source of many harmful bacteria. Syndromes such as corneal edema, allergic reaction and so on are just caused by it.

Fourthly, it is a factor of speeding up the aging cornea. Statistics show that if one begins to wear contact lenses at the age twenty, ten years later your corneal endothelial cell density will be the same as a sixty-year-old which makes you unavailable to any eye operation.

Of course there must be a lot of other harm about contact lenses. So, we should really pay more attention to our eyes and be more careful with the contact lenses. Above all, eyes are the paradise of our mind, right?

Recently, a storm of care solution for contact lens was raised constantly, so the topic of how to select care solution for contact lens becomes hot again. For contact lens users, care solution is one of the essential products, but they seem to be lack of necessary knowledge on it. What’s more, due to several reasons, consumers are leaded to an error zone when selecting and using care solution for contact lens. In this way, in their eyes often appear the symptoms of turning dry and red, aching, etc. In order to protect our eyes from these disgusting symptoms, we should remember the tips below:

1. Don’t pay attention merely to one function of the care solution. Some manufacturers boast that in their care solution products for contact lens there are some special functions, so in order to achieve some kind of propagating effect; they have to add some ingredients into the care solution. However, those ingredients may even be unnecessary in cleaning and disinfecting the contact lens. So when selecting care solution, we should look for the products which is mild in protecting eyes and innovative in solving the radical infectious problems.

2. Scientific methods for nursing your contact lens:

Daily nursing should be matched with intensive care. The basic and moisturizing care solution can be used for daily cleaning, while the intensive care solution can be applied in clearing up the lens to the core.

This match is just like the combination of ordinary cleansing milk and facial cleansing mask of special effect. One is for daily use, and the other is for weekly clearing.

You’d better select the nursing product that accompanies lens case so that you can use a brand-new case every time you buy a new bottle of care solution to avoid newly generating bacteria in your old one.

3. Taking notice of the expiry date.

When you select the care solution for contact lens eyewear, take notice of the expiry date of the product. Generally speaking, common care solutions are good for two years. Once the bottle of the solution is unclosed, it has to be used up in three months. So it is crucial to take notice of the expiry date of your care solution. If the product is out of the expiry date or open for too long time, the disinfecting effect will decline and thus it may do harm to your eyes.

Prevent the Contact Lenses from Being Damaged

Posted in Contact Lens Guide on August 13th, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

These days, my brother decided to buy a pair of contact lenses, which I dare not use until today. My eyes often have some problems, since I use them too long at a time. His lifestyle is completely different from mine; I use the computer, television, mp4 and some other technological products, more often than him. So he chose a pair of contact lenses and had it checked almost without any efforts.

 

Many friends of mine have suffered from some kind of serious eyes problems ever since they used this modern product. As we all know, the lenses are put almost on the surface of our eyes, so whenever there is some damage to the lenses, they will do the harm to our eyes, which are very weak in resistance to infection.

 

Apart from the eyes’ infection, the contact lenses may be polluted in many ways. The first is the pollution from the outside world, especially from the air. When we take off the contact lenses, the careless placing of them may have a high chance of making them polluted easily by the dust and mist from the air, or some other chemical products in our daily life.

 

Also, our eyes themselves vent some rubbish everyday, if we wear the contact lenses for a long time, the protein or some other secretions may attach to the lenses. The last one is very serious, if we don’t take it carefully, it may do the harm to the eyes easily, that is, the various kinds of bacteria’s damage. The bacteria can come from the air, our hands or just from the objects the lenses attach to everyday.

 

I told all this to my brother, who seemed to have never suffered from the eyes problems as me. But he still promised to pay special attention to the use of the contact lenses, since it was possible to do some serious harm to our eyes if we don’t care much.

The Protection System of Contact Lenses

Posted in Contact Lens Guide on August 11th, 2009 by admin – Be the first to comment

When I chatted with my friends, we came to a conclusion, that was to use a pair of contact lenses was generally very easy, but how to protect it was really a problem. Together with the lenses, I also bought a large bottle of medicinal liquid, which was said to be very important for the lenses’ using length, if it is used properly.

 

But actually, I didn’t know much about how to protect this kind of new product, so the next time I went to the shop, I asked the seller, who gave me many recommendations about how to protect the contact lenses. Since there’s not a perfect system, the most important thing is to make the system agree with personal habits and physiological system.

 

There are many kinds of medicinal liquid on the market, but some people may find that not all of them can be really used; some of those medicines will do great harm to the eyes if used improperly. But the most important thing is to check whether the medicinal liquid has been proved by the sanitation department, and also, if the liquid may cause allergy or stimulation to the eyes.

 

Some other functions of the medicinal liquid can be found on the usage direction part easily, such as the ability of reducing bacteria and getting rid of protein, and some other secretions of the eyes everyday. And some functions can only be found by everyday use of the customers, for example, the real capacity of cleaning, which will make the eyes uncomfortable if it is used wrongly.

 

Since this is also a kind of product, we should always pay attention to its normal use, like whether it is convenient to clean the contact lenses easily. There are so many brands selling medicinal liquid, so the price is also one’s concern.

 

Actually, all these are not really complex, since they are all related with personal health, we had better spend enough time on it.

Contact Lens Safety: Prescription Required

Posted in Contact Lens Guide on July 21st, 2008 by admin – Be the first to comment

Contact Lens Safety: Prescription Required

Just like their corrective counterparts, decorative contacts–sometimes called plano, zero-powered or non-corrective lenses–are regulated by FDA.

“What troubles us is when they are bought and used without a valid prescription, without the involvement of a qualified eye care professional, or without appropriate follow-up care,” says Saviola.

“This can lead to significant risks of eye injuries, including blindness.”

FDA is aware that consumers without valid prescriptions have bought decorative contact lenses from beauty salons, record stores, video stores, flea markets, convenience stores, beach shops and the Internet.

Recent legislation has made it illegal to market decorative contact lenses as over-the-counter products.

Unauthorized contact lenses of all types present risks to the eye that include corneal ulcers, corneal abrasion, vision impairment, and blindness.

If you want decorative contacts:

Get an eye exam from a licensed eye care professional, even if you feel your vision is perfect.

Get a valid prescription that includes the brand and lens dimensions.

Buy the lenses from an eye care professional or from a vendor who requires that  you provide prescription information for the lenses.

Follow directions for cleaning, disinfecting, and wearing the lenses, and visit your eye care professional for follow-up eye exams.
