When you breathe out warm air, that air can escape from the top of your mask, which will fog up the lenses. A loose-fitting mask allows exhaled air to release straight into your glasses, but a secure-fitting mask forces that air to flow out and away from your glasses. If you wear a mask without a wire in it, you can use a moldable wire-based item and weave it through the top of the mask that sits on your nose bridge. If you wear glasses with progressive lenses or high prescription lenses, adjusting the nose pads may slightly change your vision, as your lenses should ideally sit as close to your eyes as possible.

You know you’ve got a problem, but you can’t identify the underlying cause: you’re constantly rubbing your eyes because they’re dry, but are your contacts making your dry eyes worse? Dry eye syndrome is a condition that keeps your eyes from making their own moisture, and it’s more common than you might think. If you consistently feel irritation in your eyes due to dryness, talk to your eye doctor about dry eye syndrome. n’t imagine life without contact lenses, don’t worry: there are specific contacts and solutions designed to help ease dry eye discomfort, and we’ll go over those later on.

With your right index finger, gently pull down the lower lid of your eye, and tilt your chin downwards, still maintaining eye contact with yourself. don’t swap them between each eye when you put them on, even if your contact lens prescription is the same for each eye. if you develop an infection in one eye for some reason , it won’t get spread to both which can happen very easily if you were switching lenses. Our in-house optometrist, Dr. Justin Asgarpour, strongly suggests that you visit your Eye Care Professional for a valid contact prescription and initial contact lens fitting. Once you have removed your contact lenses, store them in a case with contact lens solution (or throw them out if you are using daily contacts).

And now we challenge you – read on, get inspired, and look for ways you can uplift and celebrate the achievements of the incredible people in your circle, on International Women’s Day and beyond. Her mother, Helen Gregory MacGill, was British Columbia’s first female judge and an advocate for women’s suffrage, and Elsie carried this legacy forward. During her lifetime, she became the first woman in the world to gain a master’s degree in aeronautical engineering, the first woman to serve as Technical Advisor for International Civil Aviation Organization, and the first woman ever to chair a UN committee (just to name a few). Her work off-screen is just as impactful – with a loyal following on social media, Martin uses her platform to talk about issues that are important to her, which includes everything from challenging traditional Hollywood beauty standards to raising awareness for movements such as Black Lives Matter.
