Read on for more information about how prescription glasses work.
How do prescription glasses work?
At the back of the eye, the retina reacts to light. When you look at something, the light focuses inside the eye. People who don’t need prescription eyeglasses, or those with perfect vision, experience the light as it focuses directly on the retina’s surface. Both the pupil and cornea shrink, focus, and curve the image, making it possible for your brain to interpret the image correctly. If there is any unevenness or irregularities with the pupil or cornea, the image will appear blurry. When the light focuses in front of the retina, the person is nearsighted. This means that distant things appear blurry. When the light focuses behind the retina, the person is farsighted, meaning things up close appear blurry. Prescription eyeglasses have curved lenses that help light focus on your retina, convex for nearsighted individuals, and concave for farsighted. Our optometrists at Invision Optical can test your vision and determine what kind of prescription you will need.
Should you go with contacts? Or glasses at Invision Optical?
Perhaps you have the choice between contacts or prescription eyeglasses, and you aren’t sure why one would be considered better over the other. Prescription eyeglasses offer some great benefits when compared to contacts. In addition to less cleaning and maintenance, wearing prescription eyeglasses is ultimately cheaper in the long run and decreases the risk of eye infections, due to less touching of the eyes.
