What are your ideal eyeglasses? Fashionable, stylish, beautiful, high-quality? Yes, all this is certainly important. But the main purpose of eyeglasses and contact lense is to help patients improve their vision and keep their eyes healthy.<\/p>\n

The size of eyeballs differs among people. It is almost impossible to self-prescribe the right lens. Attempts to do so can even damage your eyesight. It is very important to consider all individual characteristics of a patient, so, selection of the appropriate eyewear should be made only with the help of the optometrist.<\/p>\n

Why Can`t We Choose Lenses for Ourselves?<\/h2>\n

Visual acuity largely depends on the structure of the eye. There is also a phenomenon known as ocular dominance – when one eye is dominant (with better visual perception), and the other one is non-dominant. This phenomenon can be compared with the functional asymmetry of the right or left-dominant hand. Most often, the right eye is dominant, the left eye less so; however, in a small part of the population neither eye is the \u201cleading\u201d. That is why for each eye we need an individual lens.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n

If you pick up glasses for yourself and buy them at random, amblyopia (lazy eye) can develop. This is a disorder of sight in which an eye and the brain do not work well together, which causes vision loss in the eye which is not involved in visual processing. A poorly chosen or decentered lens is the most common cause of loss of vision in one eye. Among possible consequences can be severe headaches, nausea, discomfort, eye muscle strain and rapid deterioration of eyesight.<\/p>\n
