If you’re afraid of wearing glasses, the latest generation of contact lenses will save you

The Bible tells us that after satisfying her great curiosity and taking a bite of the apple from the forbidden tree of paradise, Eve gave us the world – beautiful, flawed, dangerous, full of creations and inventions, rewarding us with desires, quests, creations…

“If it weren’t for Ieva, would the average person today need corrective measures to achieve good vision? Would we be able to offer the world’s most appreciated silicone hydrogel contact lens, ACUVUE® ADVANCE™, to our customers to make them feel satisfied, to make them feel like they have found their true self?” – thought the Optikos pasaulio showroom professionals as they received the new shipment of these lenses.

What makes ACUVUE® ADVANCE™ contact lenses so different that they win grand prizes at the SILMO World Optical Exhibition in Paris? And why are contact lenses superior to spectacles in general?

Allows you to see in all directions

Almost everyone has to deal with visual impairment sooner or later. Whether you are a young child or a person of respectable age, you need glasses – that’s life.

“The number of spectacle wearers has been declining recently as more and more customers are discovering contact lenses. Often, people around them, co-workers or friends don’t even suspect that they are wearing corrective measures. What makes some people prefer contact lenses to glasses? The most important reason is probably the desire to be free and at the same time to see well. It’s not just aesthetic considerations. Wearers of glasses know that they restrict the field of vision. Contact lenses do not interfere with vision, and it is easier to orientate oneself in space because one can see well in all directions. This is invaluable in today’s world, where we work hard, drive cars, play sports or have fun,” said ophthalmologist Rimas Jakštas, a doctor at Optikos pasaulio.

Saves health

Contact lenses are held on the eye by a film of tears. According to wearers, good vision and health are preserved when the right lenses are chosen and well cared for.

Alma, a teacher, said that it was only after a visit to the Optikos pasaulio store that she got rid of the typical image of a contact lens wearer – red, irritated eyes, frequent blinking.

“I saved up for more expensive shoes, then for a trendy jacket… So I chose older, cheaper contact lenses, wore them longer than recommended, and sometimes didn’t take care of them properly. The ophthalmologists at Optikos pasaule convinced me to take care of my eye health. Now I wear safe and healthy lenses from well-known manufacturers. It’s a pity that I didn’t realise straight away that healthy eyes are the most important part of my image, not my clothes,” smiles Ms Alma.

No one suspects Alma wears contact lenses. Alma’s vision is provided by the silicone hydrogel lenses that have revolutionised the contact lens market. Thanks to their extremely high oxygen permeability, they ensure eye health.

This year,Optikos pasaulisintroduced its customers to the latest ACUVUE® ADVANCE™ silicone hydrogel lenses from Johnson & Johnson, which won the Grand Prix for Innovation at the World Optical Exhibition in Paris.

Has the highest protection

Wearing the latest generation of silicone hydrogel lenses provides your eyes with almost as much oxygen as not wearing lenses at all. According to ophthalmologist R.Jakšt, thanks to the patented HYDRACLEAR™ technology, these lenses maintain the natural moisture of the eyes for longer, providing exceptional, clinically proven long-term comfort. In addition, they have a Class 1 (highest UV protection) rating: they retain over 90% of UV A and almost 100% of UV B rays. Helps prevent harmful rays from entering the cornea. Contact lenses with a UV filter are not a substitute for sunglasses as they do not completely cover the eyes and the surrounding area. When worn with sunglasses, UV-retaining contact lenses will protect against harmful rays reaching the eye through the gaps at the top and sides of sunglasses.

Loyalty programme

“Optikos pasaulis” is one of the largest optical service providers in the country, with 35 showrooms. The company regularly organises attractive promotions. The Loyalty Programme has attracted exceptional attention from customers. “This programme is not a one-off discount. It is a special offer, which is valid for the entire period of time,” said doctor R. Jakštas.

Currently running a SUMMER SALE: COMFORT AND PROTECTION*. When you buy the latest generation of ACUVUE® ADVANCE™ silicone contact lenses with UV filters, you will receive a moisturizing self-tanning body lotion for free.
