Market Introduction

Contact lenses are curved lenses placed directly on the eye surface. These lenses are used to correct vision problems like farsightedness, nearsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Like eyeglasses, contact lenses refract light to focus it properly on the retina. That way, it corrects vision problems caused by refractive errors. There are various types of contact lenses, including soft lenses, hard lenses, daily disposable, and two-weekly or monthly disposable options. Soft lenses are made of flexible materials that conform to the eye's shape. Hard lenses are made of rigid gas-permeable plastic that covers part of the cornea. Along with correcting vision, contact lenses can be used for changing eye color or appearance and treating certain eye conditions.
