I use soft lenses since 2005 when I still lived in Holland and went to a place to see the strength of my vision problem and there I bought my first pair of lenses.
Problem is that soft lenses are expensive and just last for 3 months and with them I need to also buy special liquid and have to be careful on the handling.
Every time I need a new pair of lenses I ask to a friend from Holland to send them to me cause there is cheaper than here, but it takes quite some time for them to get to my house even sending with insurance (I live in Brazil, a bit too far from him) and I spend this time seeing things terribly (my lenses strength now is -2,50).
So I started to think about buying a pair of eye glasses, like this when I have no lenses I will still see things good cause eye glasses last for a very long time, so they would always be there for me.
Also since I have myopia and astigmatism, eye glasses can correct both problems while lenses are only for seeing better in long distances.
Comparing the pros and cons is not a bad Idea to get a nice pair of eye glasses
