Rigid gas permeable lenses, often called RGP lenses, are a type of contact lens made from durable plastic that allows oxygen to pass through to the eye. Unlike soft lenses, RGP lenses maintain their shape on the eye, providing clear vision and comfort for many wearers. They are particularly effective for correcting vision issues like astigmatism and keratoconus. These lenses are custom-fitted to the wearer’s eyes, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit. RGP lenses are known for their longevity and can be easier to clean than soft lenses. Regular use can lead to improved eye health and vision clarity over time.
