Five Advantages of Wearing Disposable Contact Lenses During This Time of Pandemic
Updated: Oct 5, 2020

Due to the pandemic, we had to limit ourselves from going out and continue our lives in the safety of our homes.
From working in the office to working at home, from our regular night outs to online “e-numan” sessions, from going to the gym to home workouts - but this proves that we can continue to live our lives with extra care in terms of safety and hygiene.
When it comes to eye care, the most asked question is “Is it safe to wear contact lenses during pandemic?” The short answer is YES. It is safe to wear contact lenses so long as we wash our hands before insertion and removal of contact lenses.
Also as an extra precaution, there are now daily disposable contact lenses like Dailies AquaComfort Plus one-day contact lenses. It’s a contact lens that you can throw away after use so it’s more hygienic since it does not require storing or cleaning.
Here are the advantages of wearing disposable contact lenses during this time of pandemic:
5. Zoom Meetings / E-numan
It is always a good idea to present yourself well even though everything is online nowadays. You can always look your best whenever you’re on a Zoom Meeting, whether it be a client meeting or an online drinking session with your friends. You’ll never have to worry about blue light glares reflecting on your glasses when you can wear disposable contact lenses.

4. Home workouts
Imagine having an intense workout or a difficult yoga position with your eyeglasses on? With a daily disposable contact lens, you can easily switch from your eyeglasses to your contact lens whenever you’re working out.
Follow the workout program on your tablet as you see clearly even without your glasses. Enjoy a good workout session, and sweat it out as you go all out on your eyeglass-free workout.
3. Frameless Sight
Eyeglass wearers are so used to seeing their frames in their line of vision that seeing clearly without seeing their eyeglass frames becomes a simple joy in their life.
As simple as lying down sideways, hugging a pillow while watching your favorite series without the hindrance of your eyeglasses can be possible with daily disposable contact lenses. You can enjoy a one clear day with no fogging, no borders and no frames.

2. No Fogging and Ease of Movement
Since going out these days needs a lot of protective gear - like face masks and face shields - it would be very inconvenient to wear eyeglasses underneath them. Imagine having fogged eyeglasses because of wearing a mask and having a face shield on top of it! It will be easier to move around with a contact lens without compromising your safety.
We only go out when necessary, and having a daily disposable lens is the perfect pair to go with. Dailies AquaComfort Plus one-day contact lens offers 30-piece per box, just put a pair on when needed and throw it after use. 15 pairs of daily disposable contact lenses can last months!
1. Hygiene
Most contact lens wearers take care of their lenses incorrectly which can result in risks of eye infection. By using a daily disposable contact lens, it eliminates the need to handle, store and disinfect lenses as you dispose of them after use.
It’s a very convenient and hygienic temporary replacement for your glasses when going out or doing strenuous activities. Plus, you can always have a spare lens with you!
