Regular exercise benefits the body and mind, and even if we can’t always get to the gym, there are plenty of ways to stay active at home.<\/p>\n

Whether you’re doing yoga in your living room or training in the garden, contact lenses<\/a> are the most convenient and comfortable option for correcting your vision while you exercise.<\/p>\n

5 reasons to swap glasses for contact lenses when exercising:<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • A wider field of vision: There’s no restrictive frame blocking your view, and contact lenses conform perfectly to the curve of your eyes, giving you a much wider field of vision \u2014 a real advantage for athletes.<\/li>\n
  • Stable vision: Contacts don’t bounce or slip down your nose during a workout, giving you the freedom to concentrate on the game or activity.<\/li>\n
  • Impact-resistant: Contact lenses offer a practical, safe alternative to wearing glasses when exercising \u2014 especially during sport. If you take a knock, they won’t shatter or cause a potential eye injury, saving you an expensive trip to the optician.<\/li>\n
  • Sharp clarity: Your lenses won’t be affected by rain or fog, and they won’t steam up in dry conditions.<\/li>\n
  • No interference: Less cumbersome than glasses, contact lenses won’t get in the way of headphones, helmets or sunglasses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
