WHAT CAUSES DRY EYES?
Wearing contact lenses too long is one of the main causes of dry eye. Most soft lenses should only be worn for a maximum of 8hrs and even those designed to be worn day and night can still cause dry eye problems. This is because contact lenses are hyrdophilic and actually soak up water from your eyes.

OTHER CAUSES OF DRY EYE:

  • staring at a computer, TV or smartphone screen for long periods because you blink much  less frequently and create less tear film lubrication
  • driving long distances which also has the same effect as staring too long at screens
  • being in air-conditioned environments which draw moisture from the air and also from the eyes
  • undergoing the menopause where hormonal changes often result in reduced tear film so that eyes are not sufficiently lubricated.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF DRY EYE?
Tired, achy, red eyes often accompanied by a headache are the most common symptoms of dry eyes. The easiest solution is to switch back to glasses to give your eyes a rest. Often, dry eye sufferers will use lubricating drops to try and ease the problem but this typically does not provide more than temporary relief. But what if there was another option? Well now there is and it is called iGO OVC

WHAT MAKES iGO LENSES THE BEST LENSES FOR DRY EYES?
Overnight lenses are the best contact lenses for dry eyes because the eye can be fully lubricated by your natural tears (which happens every time you blink) and oxygen can enter freely all day without a contact lens getting in the way. This makes iGO lenses a healthy option and because they are specifically designed to sleep in they are quite safe.

WHAT MAKES iGO LENSES DIFFERENT?
Overnight contact lenses are worn while sleeping to gently reshape the eye surface. When the lenses are removed in the morning, light then enters the eye at the correct angle so that it focuses on the retina. This is why you can see when you are not wearing iGO overnight lenses.

WHY ARE OVERNIGHT CONTACT LENSES MORE COMFORTABLE FOR DRY EYE SUFFERERS?
Overnight lenses are the most comfortable contact lenses for dry eye because you do not wear them during the day when you are in environments or involved in activities which aggravate your dry eye problem.
