Contact lenses are definitely a great alternative to dealing with glasses on a daily basis and many people feel they are worth the extra expense. They tend to be more comfortable and if looked after properly, seldom cause any issues. But for anyone who is still in the planning stages of getting contact lenses, knowing what the most popular brands are can be a very good way to go.
Acuvue
These are possibly THE most popular contact lens brand name, thanks to extensive advertising campaigns and high quality lenses that keep people talking about them. They are produced by the parent company of Johnson and Johnson and are part of the world’s top contact lens line. These contact lenses are available world-wide, too.
Biomedics
Another very popular contact lens brad, Biomedics prides itself on offering 1-2 week disposable contact lenses. These are top quality soft lenses that conform to the eye and can be left in continuously for 7-14 days. There’s no cleaning involved, you just toss them at the end of the two weeks and open another pair.
Focus
Focus brand contact lenses are another extremely well-known brand that has widespread advertising campaigns and quality products. They provide a wide range of different contact lens options, from daily wear to completely disposable contact lenses and everything in between. Focus offers a full range of eye care solutions.
Frequency
These contacts are created with the user in mind and they have a range of types including multifocal and aspheric among others. These are contact lenses that can be used for longer periods of time, just 4 boxes will supply you for an entire year and 8 boxes keep you in contact lenses for the next two years.
Fresh Look
Just like the name suggests, Fresh Look contacts offer a brand new look for your eyes. From subtle color differences to bright and bold ones, these contact lenses give you the chance to see what it would be like to see the world through blue eyes when you’ve got brown and vice versa. For anyone who wants to try a new eye color (or two or three) Fresh Look is the most popular brand.
O2 Optix
For those who have astigmatism or another similar issue, O2 Optix offers a solution with contact lenses. They tend to be fairly focused, but provide an excellent solution for this type of eye problem. Again, a very popular brand.
ProClear
These come in a variety of types, including 90-day wear contacts and toric. However, they are best known for their comfort level. Even contact lens wearers who find they have quite a bit of irritation with regular lenses will be thrilled to discover that ProClear lenses are softer and more comfortable than other brands. The reason for this is the special technology that allows the lenses to function similar to your eyes by surrounding cells with liquid so they stay nice and moist, even after extended wear.
PureVision
This brand is usually associated with multifocal contact lenses that permit you to deal with differing eye problems at the same time, with the same pair of contact lenses. This can be very useful for anyone who suffers from more than one condition.
By going with a popular brand of contact lens, you are bound to find one that works well. Thousands of people aren’t using these brands because they are lousy and don’t work, after all. So take a good look at the most popular options in contact lenses and try them out for yourself. You might be pleasantly surprised to find luxury in your contacts.
