Chances are, if you’re reading this, you’re using some kind of vision-correcting apparatus to do so. According to the Vision Council of America, 75% of adults in the States use vision correction devices, with 64% of them using eyeglasses and the other 11% using contacts. Seems like Johnny Four-Eyes from 4th grade was right when he said he said you’d be sorry for teasing him during recess. But it’s cool, dude, ain’t no shame in the glasses game. Luckily, geek-chic has become a thing in the past few years, so channeling your inner Clark Kent could be better for your image than you thought.
Still, glasses can be a pain in the butt to deal with. They can break, they can get lost, they can get grimy with your fingerprints and dirt, and they can get in the way of doing things you want to do, like working out, playing sports, engaging in sexy time, or proving how embarrassingly good you are at doing the worm at your favorite dive bar. As cool acceptable as they’ve become, glasses can seriously hamper your groove.
So, what options are you left with if you still want to be able to see? LASIK can be prohibitively expensive, isn’t covered by most insurance plans, and looks scary as hell. Yeah, we don’t recommend going under the knife (or laser) unless you absolutely have to. But hey, if you want to be strapped down in a chair — awake the entire time — while someone mucks around in your cornea, be our guest.
If you’re not a masochist, you luckily have contacts to fall back on. You get the crystal-clear vision without any physical encumbrances that LASIK provides, but without actually having to undergo any procedures. They’re disposable, convenient, and really discreet. Maybe you’ve heard people say that contacts are really uncomfortable to wear. Well, those poor, unfortunate souls were probably using crappy eye contact solution, and you should feel bad that they were suffering for so long just because they were ignorant of the better options that exist out there. You won’t have that problem, though, because you’re smart and you’re going to use Opti-Free PureMoist contact lens solution. Recommended by doctors (it’s their #1 choice, actually), Opti-Free has HydraGlyde® Moisture Matrix, which creates a barrier of moisture around your lens that lasts all day. Meaning, your eyes are bathed in freshness the entire time you’re wearing your lenses. You know how sometimes you can tell you’re wearing lenses, just by the way they feel on your eyes? When you use Opti-Free PureMoist solution, you honestly can’t even tell you have them on. It’s insane how comfortable this solution is.
Right now, there’s this awesome coupon that will give you $2 off Opti-Free PureMoist, which you can redeem at virtually any big drugstore. So next time you’re at Tar-zhay stocking up on deodorant and cheap socks, whip out this nifty little coupon and save big on the contact lens solution that’s going to make you shake your head in pity the next time you hear someone excitedly say they’ve got a LASIK consultation.
