How to choose the degree of cosmetic contact lenses

Nowadays, myopia, astigmatism and other conditions are quite common, so when choosing cosmetic contact lenses, we must pay attention to the accuracy of the degree. Generally, there will be a certain difference in the degree of cosmetic contact lenses and frame glasses, because cosmetic contact lenses are directly attached to the cornea for zero-distance contact, but frames are placed on the bridge of the nose and there will be a certain distance between the glasses, so the degree of cosmetic contact lenses is generally lower than that of frame glasses. The specific degree we need to convert depends on the height and degree of our own frames. Generally, there is a conversion formula, and personal conversion may be troublesome. Generally, there will be relevant vision conversion tables in optical shops, and we can directly consult relevant ophthalmologists.

How to convert the degree of cosmetic contact lenses

The conversion between the degree of cosmetic contact lenses and the degree of frame lenses is very simple. The lowest degree of cosmetic contact lenses is 100 degrees. For those below 100 degrees, you can directly choose 0 degrees. Generally, no conversion is required below 400 degrees (excluding 400). 400-500 degrees minus 25 degrees, 500-700 degrees minus 50, 700-900 degrees minus 75, and so on. Of course, you can also convert it using the calculation formula: the degree of cosmetic contact lenses = the degree of frame glasses ÷ (1-0.012*the degree of frame glasses).

Of course, the diopter of most cosmetic contact lenses on the market is between 100 and 900. Generally speaking, the higher the diopter, the thicker the contact lenses are, and the worse the wearing comfort will be. There are not many ready-made cosmetic contact lenses for high myopia. There are cosmetic contact lenses with a degree of more than 1,000, but they need to be customized. These customized high-degree colored contact lenses require more advanced manufacturing techniques to make them thinner and lighter, thus ensuring they are comfortable to wear. Therefore, it is recommended not to wear cosmetic contact lenses for 1000 degrees, especially above 1200 degrees.

Now we have a certain understanding of how to choose the degree of cosmetic contact lenses. When we choose the degree of cosmetic contact lenses, the conversion generally starts from 400 and above. If the degree is below 400, it can generally be configured directly according to the degree of the frame.
