Side Effects Could Lead Consumers to Prefer Alternatives
Undesirable side effects of contact lenses continue to plague the market. These include eye irritation, disability, and even loss of vision in extreme cases. Many prefer not to have a foreign object inserted in the eyes, that could trigger superficial keratitis, corneal vascularization, and corneal edema
Hence, several consumers are opting for alternative refractive correction treatments. These include LASIK surgery and other surgical procedures. With rising disposable income and affordability of such treatments, it is gaining popularity among lens and spectacle users. Alternatively, deterred by the side effects of contact lenses, many are also opting to go back to using traditional spectacles.
