I wrote for a couple of years on eyecare on Quora now. Some contact lens questions come up time and again. I hope I can help more understand it better. Here are some commons one, some are answered by me, some are answered by other helpful Optometrists.
wowowow SILHY soft lenses generally don't cause neo-vascularization. Neo-vascularization happens when the eye has low or lack of oxygen for an extended period of time. It could be minimized if the eyes are monitored by the Optometrist frequently. Changing the dailies may not help the problem. It’s best to see the Optometrist to find out what’s the real cause behind it and change it, or fit new lens if needed be. The cornea receives the bulk of it’s oxygen from the atmosphere. When the lids are closed during sleep far less Oxygen gets to the eye. A contact lens will deprive the cornea of Oxygen in the open and closed eye state but with the added challenge of the closed eye many problems can results. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns that sleeping with your contacts in makes you six to eight times more likely to suffer from a corneal infection. Infections in the eye can be uncomfortable, and they can also cause permanent vision loss.

Are you having more avoidable typos as the day goes on?
It's quite usual in today's digital age that eyes get tired at work near 2pm or after. How do we make it better? While we would still need to use our computer to work on word documents, emails, and excel files, we can be more efficient by avoiding tired or strained eyes, and minimize small typing errors. It starts with an eye exam at an Optometrist office. An Optometrist such as I, can look into the root cause such as dry eyes, or poor eye focusing, and eye teaming that might affect continuous reading and writing at near. Depending on the cause, one can be treated for either tear deficient dry eye, or evaporative dry eye, with eye medications or in office treatment. If the problem is eye focusing or eye teaming, special lens treatment and vision therapy programs can help minimize the eyestrain. Get a personalized eye exam and treatment for your eyestrain, you will be more efficient at work, and able to make more free time for yourself. Work-life balance can happen!

Growing up, I was the daydreamer. I loved listening to stories, and was an avid reader. However, I missed out on some important points every so often during reading and school lectures. It wasn't a problem in high school for me. During University, I had to review after the lecture to understand it the first time. And when I intend to read for 6 hours in the library, I fall asleep for half of it. I was always jealous of my roommate, who was a visual learner. She was able to start at 10pm and get things done before her midnight sleep. I was never diagnosed as learning disabled, as English was my second language. I also had an amazing English teacher, who took pity on me, and proofreads for me before I even submit my work. However, my symptoms were very similar to those who I knew in high school who were deemed learning disabled. In Optometry, I was found to have large exophoria, a hidden eye turn. It makes my eyes more tired easily. However, I didn't get treated then. It got worse after my concussion in 2013. I avoided reading books for a quite a few years. I started taking courses with the intend to treat a child patients with crossed eye last year. I learned at that time I can benefit from it myself for both my hidden eye turn and concussion related vision problems. I started going for vision therapy treatment this year. It's made a great difference so far. I am more aware in my driving and typos, and able to fix them. For today's young children, it's even more important for parents and educators to ignite the fire in one's lifelong pursuit of education. It's a great idea to keep them interested in reading, to embark the journey for learning . If a child doesn't like to read. It's worth to investigate if it's vision related. Here are some clinical pearls from the Vision Help Blog by Dan L. Fortenbacher, O.D., FCOVD
Read more on his blog here. It's about the time of the year for back to school. May We help the children to stay calm and read on. Book their eye exams before the school starts to ensure they have the proper visual skills for continuous reading comfort.

Sally:
I've been a patient at multiple optometry clinics before and I can say that Warden Optometry gives the best service. Over the past 3 years, I've gotten 3 routine eye examinations from Dr. Liang and each went very smoothly. She tells you exactly what she's doing and you get to learn new information during your examination. I recently decided to get contacts and she went through step-by-step on how to use and take care of them. She is very passionate about what she does and I would definitely recommend a visit to Warden Optometry!
