Replacing contact lenses frequently reduces the risk of eye problems and increases the comfort. Daily disposable contacts provide maximum benefit in these regards in addition to many other advantages.

Daily disposable contacts are by far the healthiest and safest type of contact on the market. Because dailies come from a fresh, sterile package every day, there have the lowest infection rate. Even though there are cleaning solutions for contacts, it is impossible to get them perfectly clean. However, if the contacts are changed each day, the risk is substantially lowered. Also, there is not enough time for calcium and protein to build up on the lenses. Daily disposable contacts get thrown out at the end of each day. Therefore, they do not sit in a case overnight that may be harboring other germs.

Another advantage of daily disposable contacts is that they are quick and easy for those who are on the go or travel frequently. There is no need to be careful with them at the end of the day, and there is no reason to check for cleanliness or damage in the morning. In addition, if a contact is torn or lost, the user will always have back ups.

In some cases, daily disposable contacts may be the cheaper option. While the price may add up if the user wears them every single day, it can be cheaper if the user only wears contacts three or four times a week. Also, there is no need to purchase contact cases or cleansing solutions.

Daily disposable contact lenses are rising rapidly in popularity. When they first appeared on the market in 1996, approximately 13% of contact wearers chose soft lenses, and only a small percentage of them opted for daily disposables. By 2009, nearly 75% of contact wearers chose soft lenses with a great majority opting for the daily lenses. The health benefits simply cannot be ignored.
