What happens to monthly contact lenses after a month?
Wearing contacts longer than their recommended length of time can increase the risk for eye infections and complications. Monthly contacts are generally worn during the day, cleaned and stored each night, and then disposed of after a month of daily use.
Can yearly contacts be worn everyday?
Monthly or yearly contact lenses should be worn for up to 9 hours a day.
Are disposable lenses better?
Daily disposable lenses are a good option for younger individuals, especially those who are new to contacts. Younger wearers have a tendency to damage or lose their contact lenses. With dailies, they can easily replace torn or lost lenses.
How much does a contact lens cost?
If your eye doctor recommends and prescribes disposable bifocal contact lenses, an estimated per-box cost for these lenses is $50 to $70 (similar to the cost of disposable toric contacts). So again, an annual lens cost of $500 to $700 is not unusual if you wear the lenses daily and replace them every two weeks.
How long do contacts last?
So, the duration of the contact lenses actually varies from this one to that one. Generally speaking, there are few disposable colored contacts, and most of them could last for about 3 months, at least. Some quality ones could serve about half a year, if properly kept.
What is a contact lens?
A contact lens is a thin, curved lens placed on the film of tears that covers the surface of your eye. The lens itself is naturally clear, but is often given the slightest tinge of color to make them easier for wearers to handle.
