Contact lenses in the field of vision correction have
brought a sort of revolution. You can use contact lenses for both
purposes- for making a style statement and for vision correction. Even
people with astigmatism are fit for wearing contact lenses. For vision
correction, there are a number of contact lenses like bifocal contact
lens, toric lens, cataract lens, and alike.
For style purposes, you can
use cosmetic contact lens, disposable contact lens and custom contact
lens. There are also hard contact lense, soflens and alike. Colored
contact lenses are also capable of eye conditions like astigmatism,
presbyopia and alike.
Drug-loaded contact
lenses are a new addition to the field of vision correction. In fact, it
is a great way to treat eye diseases. Most eye diseases are generally
treated with eye drops. But, this process is not as effective as you
would like it to be.
This is because eye drops drain out with tears.
But, the development of drug-loaded contact lenses helps to erase this
problem. Through this way the efficiency of drug delivery can be
maintained.
The drug-loaded contact lenses are then applied to
the eyes. Definitely, this is a great way to apply drugs to the eyes.
Ophthalmic drug delivery through these lenses helps to treat eye
diseases safely. Also, it is more effective than the eye drops as
currently used Ophthalmic drug delivery systems are not that much
efficient, the advent of drug-loaded contact lenses comes as a relief.
