Eyeglasses
In recent years, eyeglasses have become quite the fashion statement. For many people that alone is a reason to opt for them over contacts. The other benefit to wearing glasses is that it’s often a more economical choice, since they only need to be purchased once per-prescription period. People who feel squeamish about touching their eyes also typically choose eyeglasses over contacts, for obvious reasons.
Contact Lenses
If you just don’t like the look or feel of glasses, then contact lenses might be right for you. Another advantage of contact lenses is improved peripheral and all-weather vision. Wearing glasses during a rain storm can be quite a challenge, but with contacts you won’t even notice. Some athletes also prefer wearing contact lenses, since they don’t get in the way during contact sports or other activities.
In the end, it’s up to you whether you want a chic pair of eyeglasses or convenient contact lenses. In fact, many people opt for both so they can alternate at will!
