At North Park Vision Center, PC in Westminster, we know there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to contact lenses. Whether you're a teen athlete, a busy professional, or a retiree enjoying your golden years, your eyes—and your lifestyle—change with time. So should your contact lenses.
A patient once shared how she had worn the same type of contact lenses since college. Now in her 50s, she noticed increasing dryness and difficulty reading up close. After an updated fitting, she switched to multifocal lenses with moisture-locking technology—and saw instant improvement. It was a simple change that made a big difference in her daily life.
This story reminds us: the best contact lens isn’t just about clear vision—it’s about comfort, convenience, and how well it fits into your everyday routine.
Contact Lenses for Kids & Teens
Children and teens are often great candidates for contacts—especially active ones involved in sports or those self-conscious about wearing glasses.
Best options:
- Daily disposables for easy hygiene
- Soft lenses that are comfortable and stable
- Contacts with UV protection for outdoor activities
Parental support is key, especially in ensuring young wearers are ready for the responsibility of proper lens care.
Contact Lenses for Young Adults
College students and early professionals are typically juggling studies, work, and social lives. They need reliable vision correction that keeps up with busy, screen-heavy days.
Best options:
- Daily or monthly disposables depending on budget and routine
- Lenses for digital eye strain with blue-light filtering
- Colored lenses for occasional cosmetic use
Comfort and affordability often drive choices at this stage.
Contact Lenses for Adults in Their 30s and 40s
In this age range, many start noticing early signs of presbyopia—a normal age-related change that makes reading up close more difficult.
Best options:
- Multifocal lenses to correct both near and distance vision
- Toric lenses for those with astigmatism
- Hydrating lenses to reduce dryness from screen use
Lifestyle flexibility matters—so we help patients weigh the pros and cons of reusable vs. disposable lenses based on their habits.
Contact Lenses for 50s and Beyond
As we age, eye conditions like dry eye, cataracts, and reduced tear production can affect lens comfort. Fortunately, contact lens technology has come a long way.
Best options:
- Multifocal or bifocal contacts
- Hybrid lenses for sharper vision with comfort
- Daily disposables to reduce irritation and risk of infection
We also assess how lenses interact with any other eye conditions or medications, ensuring safety and comfort remain top priorities.
