How Often Should Eyeglasses Be Worn?


Your eyeglasses have been designed so that you can see better, making you safer throughout your day. Therefore, how frequently you have to wear them is dependent on your particular vision care requirements and lifestyle.


People who require eyeglasses to clearly see both far and near distances have to be wearing their eyeglasses the entire day. This also goes for those whose doctors recommended full-time eyeglass use.


Farsighted or nearsighted people who were prescribed eyeglasses for specific purposes might only have to use theirs when performing certain activities.


You might not need eyeglasses for far and near distances, however, you do spend much of your time working on your computer or laptop, then you may want to consider using non-prescription lenses that filter out blue light while you work on screen-related tasks.


And, when you spend some time outdoors, you and everyone else will want to use lenses that protect from UV rays.


If you are not sure, consult an optometrist Ferndale, WA regarding the ideal frequency regarding eyeglass wear that is fit for your lifestyle. Make sure that you schedule an eye exam the soonest if over one year has passed since your most recent one.
