Patients can wear contacts that are designed to be changed and replaced every day. These are the so-called âdaily wearâ contacts and they are the most popular option. Another type of contacts is the âextended wearâ contact lens that can be worn continuously for a week. This means that patients can wear them even overnight with no problems what so ever and they only have to replace them once a week.
Some soft contact lenses are referred to as âdisposableâ by contact lens sellers, but actually, they are for frequent/planned replacement. With extended wear lenses, the lenses may be worn continuously for the prescribed wearing period (for example, 7 days to 30 days) and then thrown away.
