My sister started wearing contact lenses a few years
before me. I remember her only being able to keep them in for part of
the day and the elaborate cleaning process that she had to go through.
My first pair of Johnson and Johnson contact lenses was the kind that
you had to clean with one solution and then put them in another solution
in a machine that removed the enzymes through a heating process. I
remember the doctor telling me that if I was staying overnight someplace
and forgot my machine I could place the lenses in their case in boiling
water.
My have times changed. I have had many different kinds of
contacts but they have all been manufactured by Johnson and Johnson
contact lenses. I now wear the kind of lenses that you wear for a month
and throw away. The cost is something that has also changed. My first
pair of Johnson and Johnson contact lenses was very expensive. I know I
was in a panic that I would lose one. Now the disposable lenses are very
reasonable and you can have them mailed to your house for convenience or
get them through one of the chain discount stores.
I have not gotten to the point of needing bifocals yet, but my
doctor has assured me that when the time comes I will not have to wear
reading glasses and contacts because Johnson and Johnson contact lenses
make a bifocal lens. There are a variety to choose from the most popular
brands being Survue and Acuvue, both are manufactured by Johnson and
Johnson contact lenses. I really like this idea because I know how
annoying it is for my co-workers to be constantly keeping tract of their
reading glasses.
Plus I have tried on some of the reading glasses and
feel like an 80 year old librarian in them. I cannot believe the number
of people that walk around with reading glasses on a chain around their
necks. I feel fortunate that my doctor feels that Johnson and Johnson
contact lenses are going to keep me from having to be “chained” to
reading glasses.
