1-2 Week Disposable

Pop in a fresh pair of lenses every week or two. Weekly contact lenses offer the best of both worlds - the comfort and health benefits of regularly replacing your contacts, as with daily disposable lenses; combined with the more durable design and cost effectiveness of monthly disposables. For these reasons weekly contact lenses are a popular choice for those who want the benefits of dailies at a lower overall cost, or for those considering monthly or extended wear contact lenses.

Wear weekly lenses during the daytime, take them out at night, clean and store them while you sleep, and then put them same lenses back in the following day. Every 1-2 weeks just through out the old lenses and open a new pair. Weekly contact lenses are therefore a great option for occasional wearers - especially those who are looking for coloured or novelty lenses that they won't be wearing all the time - as they are cheaper than dailies and can be saved in between uses.

The advantages of frequently replacing your contact lenses are many. Most importantly are the health benefits, as occasionally pollen and other deposits can accidentally become trapped on the lenses and cause an irritation or even an infection. These risks are usually very low, however, which is why weekly contact lenses are an excellent choice to keep your eyes fresh and comfortable without having to stock up on large supplies of daily lenses.

Weekly contact lenses also offer the benefits of monthly lenses. As weekly lenses are designed to be removed and reused they are made to be more durable than dailies, and tend to work out far cheaper in the long-run. There are also the advantages of not having to carry supplies of daily lenses whenever you go on holiday, or even finding somewhere to store them at home - all you need is your lens case and cleaning solution.

Ensure that you check whether your contact lenses are supposed to be replaced every 1 or 2 weeks, as wearing one pair of lenses for longer than prescribed does risk damage being done to both the contacts and your eyes. Weekly lenses are available for most prescriptions - as with dailies and monthly contact lenses - and there are some designed for correcting astigmatism as well as other advanced needs.
